Oliver Aang's "Happy Tail"

You might remember reading about the guinea pig Stitch on our Happy Tails page, where we celebrated his happy life after his passing.

We received an update from his family about Oliver Aang, one of the guinea pigs they've since brought into their lives, and we wanted to share it with you.

Read Oliver Aang's Happy Tail, and the stories of other CCHS Alums here.

It's truly wonderful to see pets in their happy homes, and we hope you enjoy reading about Oliver Aang and his new brother, Taffy!
