Sweet Jesus, get them off of her! I mean…oh, wait…it’s fine. They’re just guinea pig heating pads. 'Cause that’s normal.
Thanks to Craftastrophe for this one, which will now begin to haunt our dreams. Etsy creator joanofz designed these rodent comfort accessories. You may think it’s crazy, but she’s already sold out of the little buggers.
The photo of the multiple guinea pig heating pads surrounding the woman reminds me of 'Gremlins,' but I assume that wasn’t the desired effect.
