My boyfriend makes guinea pig noises at them (little squeaks and grunts), and I sing to them (just whatever I'm hearing on my headphones). I also enjoy petting and laughing at their "butt feathers" which is the super-long hair that grows on their rear ends (the rest of their hair is mostly short). |
Ah! My fiance and I call our dog and our guinea pig our babies. We call them brothers. Our dachshund enjoys watching Bandit, so sometimes he'll hop with his front paws on our kitchen counters to look into his cage. Bandit is Bama (our dog's) baby brother.

I dunno if I have a very good wheek but I certainly do wheek back when he wheeks at me. Usually when I come home he wheeks like crazy when I'm going through the door. My neighbors probably think I'm nuts.

That's so great. I call Bandit El Bandito on occasion and pretend to speak spanish at him.
