Photographer Antonio Rivera didn’t notice the detail until later when he was editing the image on his computer. Like the others, the animal was staring intently at the camera while sitting in its owner’s hand. Because of its size and clothing, it easily went unnoticed.
In life, there are friends we love and cherish for accompanying us through good times and bad, but only one usually earns a special place in our hearts, and in most cases, it’s our pets.
Whether it’s a dog, a cat, a parrot, a fish or even a mouse, animals always provide us with the support we often need. And even if they don’t always realize that they do it with their cuteness alone, we look for a way to thank them.

On TikTok, you can find all kinds of content that users dedicate to their pets, although sometimes it goes unnoticed.
However, photographer Antonio Rivera found a sweet moment when he was working and was so surprised that he decided to share it on social media so that more people could see it.

Antonio is used to lending his services as a photographer to immortalize moments, including graduations. Whenever a group of students finish their university or school period, a portrait of all of them is a must.
What seemed to be just another day of work ended up being a fun one thanks to a small but important detail in the photo. As Antonio told TikTok, while editing the image on his computer, he noticed that a recent graduate was holding something small in her hands, so he took a closer look to realize that it was a guinea pig.

Most likely (and perhaps obviously) it was her pet, but it wasn’t just that that caught Antonio’s attention but the fact that the guinea pig was dressed in a custom-made cap and gown, as if it were just another student.
«I only realized when I was editing,» he said in the video’s description. In this way, the animal went unnoticed, especially because of its size and how well camouflaged it was in its clothes. He even looked focused on posing.
