Suicidal Butterscotch

The other day I had a bunch of my friends over to my apartment and we were all hanging out in the living room. I wanted to show them how pig my guinea pig was getting so I took her out and for some reason she always runs up my shoulder and hides behind my head under my hair. Well usually you can just get up and walk around and she will be fine up there. But that night she decided she wanted a taste of freedom so she jumped from my shoulder and hit the ground. Now my little rodent is kind of top heavy and she hit her mouth on the floor. I scooped her right back up to see if she was O.K. and her lip was bleeding! I started to freak out so I called my roommate whom I share the guinea pig with. She wasn't answering her phone so I called the guy that she was with and told him it was an emergency. He quickly threw the phone to her and I explained to her what had happened, but she said "Oh I'm sure the thing will be fine. She's a trooper." O.K fine so I hung up the phone, but her darn lip just kept bleeding. So I decided to feed her to see if her insides were O.K. and luckily they were. My guinea pig survived the night and is still alive and kicking. She truly is a trooper!
