Mima, there's a ridiculously long word for ascribing human emotions to non -human species whether they be plant or animal, -(anthropomorph-something), and people tend to laugh or look sideways at people who do this. Personally, I prefer the company of people who love their plants and furry friends, and feel loved in return, a little kindness and compassion goes a long way, especially in today's world.
I'll bet your plants, and guinea pigs are thriving....!
