Are you serious?

Hi to all. Within the past couple of weeks I have had some very strange questions about my guinea pigs and I thought they were comical enough to share here and see if anyone else had similarly ridiculous questions about their pigs.

1) From a co-worker, "Paula, do your guinea pigs eat frogs?" My reply: "Have you seen a guinea pig?"
A very good friend of mine contends that since I've never actually tried to feed them frogs so I cannot accurately answer her question.

2) From my boss, "Guinea pigs, hmm. Don't they get territorial and eat each other sometimes?"
I have heard of this type of thing happening with hamsters, but the guy made it sound like he really believed it to be a common occurrence for a guinea pig to just decide, fairly regularly, to chomp down his/her cage mate(s). My reply again, after nearly peeing myself trying to keep a straight face, "Have you seen a guinea pig?"

Just when I think I've heard it all.....

At least your co-workers keep work fun!

I have a picture of my piggers as the background on my laptop and my friend's boyfriend saw it and he was like "Oh My God! thats is the biggest Hamster I have ever seen"

Those are pretty funny.

My "likes to be intimidating boss" broke down giggling in front of a client the other day because the background on my computer was on the projector. I think I found his weakness.

Perhaps you should carry around a pigture?

Paula, I owe you an e-mail. I've been with my guest or with a stomach bug. Done intros yet?
