Our carer went away and we went to one of the less nice places for our holiday. I felt a bit disorientated there and the calling felt stronger somehow. It was very hard to carry on and so I decided to let go and see what happened. As you know I had always been a curious guinea.

I felt myself become lighter and lighter like I was floating. I looked down and could see a dirty guinea body in our cage lying motionless. It looked like me but I realised it wasn’t me as I was still here. I realised that the fur and claws and ears I called me weren’t really me at all. They were like a set of clothes I had been given to wear. I felt much lighter and freer not having to carry those around.

I felt warm and so safe…like I was wrapped in a blanket of love. I hadn’t felt this safe since I left my mummy’s tummy. Then I sensed Furby was close to me again. That everything was close to me and I felt very, very happy. This must be heaven.
