    New here, hello everyone!!

    Hello fellow cavy lovers, new to the forum so figured I would introduce myself and my piggies! I grew up with guinea pigs, and since I just got the resources to have a pet of my own I went right back to them!When I was younger I had one at a time, and got them from pet stores. About two months ago I looked up a local guinea pig rescuer and picked up two little guys there, a one year old named Sparky and a three week old named Pickle. I thought I knew how to properly care for them, and got a large cage at a pet store. As little Pickle started to grow I quickly realized it was far too small! So I ordered a C and C kit size 2x5 which I believe will be sufficient. Browsing posts here and looking up new info I realize I actually have a lot still to learn in order to best care for my boys, and I look forward to learning more from you folks here!

    Welcome to the (shedding) Aby club! I've been in love with Abys for many years.......so much so that I am known to threaten pig-napping if you have them. And, Syracuse is within driving distance, so........

    Just teasing, of course. I have a full house with my two cavies and have been threatened with eviction if I bring home any more. Of course, there would be a custody battle if that ever happened.

    Welcome to the Forum!

    Thank you!

    I've never had Abys before them and boy they certainly do shed! Not great for my allergies but they sure are sweet hearts so I don't let it bother me too much
