Oolong - 2014-08-01 - 2019-04-14
Oolong passed away last night. She was an amazingly sweet and loving piggie, and we miss her dearly.
Oolong was born, together with her sister Pu'er, on Xishan in Suzhou. Even more than Pu'er, she loved to be held and petted--but especially together with Pu'er. Later, when she met Barley, she took to him immediately, licking and nuzzling him from the first moment they met. Last night, when we said good night to them both, he was right next to her, licking her ear.
At UWC, Oolong has introduced countless students from around the world to guinea pigs. They have all seen how loving and trusting she is: I think she has done her own tiny part to make the world a more caring place.
I love you, Oolong. Thank you for being our guinea pig.
