Hello everyone, I have not posted on this forum for I believe 2 years, but am in need of your guys help and knew I could come here. I hope I posted my thread to standards, if not mods, I'm very sorry! I had a sick pig about 7 months ago and sadly she passed away. During that time period I was...

Im sorry, but I just have to post as Im balling and feel like dying. One of my 3 guinea pigs just passed away in my arms, not but 20 minute ago, and all I think of is how its all my fault. I sat and held as she convulsed, and could do nothing for her but cuddle and tell her she was a good little...

Hey and hello everyone. I can't remember the last time I posted on this site, think it was summer 08. It has been a very busy school year, so not much time for anything but school work. I hope to start posting again and want to take this time to say WOW, T you have done a great job, the site...

I noticed this morning that one of my girls, Nibbs's eye wasn't looking right. Taking a closer look at it I could see pink skin in the front corner of the eye, which she had not had the previous night. The other eye (right) is bright and bad side is still bright, not clouding and she seems her...

Next weekend I plan to introduce my newly nuetered male Twoonie to my 2 females, Nugget and Nibbs. This brings us to the joy of cage changes!!! The first problem I run into is that my bedroom doesn't allow me to expand longer than a 2x4. I have drawn plans and tried to re-arange all the...

Ok, my little Twoonie got nuetered on the 10th, and I've been keeping a close eye on him, I noticed on monday that he was hard on one side of his scrotal area, and not the other. I called the vet and they would see him on wednesday. The vet at first thought it was a hernia (ahhhhhhh!) but then...

Questions at bottom Well, as some read, I was planning on getting my little Twoonie nuetered. Yesterday we set out at 7am to get to Windfield for his appointment arriving around 8:15. I had to wait will him after my mom droped me off till 9. The vet gave him a check over and said she couldn't...

Hello everyone! Well, my little Twoonie is going getting his man hood taken away this friday and I have one quick question. My mom brought up that maybe I should bathe him before he goes to the vet, like on wednesday with a clean cage for him, but I'm not so sure. He's clean, not sticky, nice...

Well, not to bring up the icky details, as it still hurts, my beloved Pumpkin passed away Thusday 11th. He was 6 years and 3 months, so I feel he lived a good life, and I was blessed for such a long time with him. Anyways, this leaves him 1 year old buddy (that I adopted just for Pumpkin)...

I was hoping my first post here would be far from now, but sadly Thursday the 11 between 9:00-9:30 Pumpkin passed away. I knew his time was limited, he had been going downhill big time for a month, and gradually over 6 months. I thought he was sleeping, but that makes me happy. He was so...

I'm not sure the point behind this post, guess I sort of just need to share with other piggie lovers. My oldest and dearest to my hear gp Pumpkin, who celabrated his 6th birthday on June the 5th, has gone down hill. In the past 2 weeks he went from 900 grams to 755grams. His bones have become...

Ok, one question that has arised now that my mom bought some oranges. I had never though of giving them to my pigs as some are not very venterous in what they eat. But they have been eating more so thought I might try some oranges. So, can pigs eat any types of oranges, or are there some types...

My baby Pumpkin is turning 6 on June 5 (yeah!!!) I guess hes really not my baby anymore:D Being my first senior, and oldest of all my pigs, I'm unsure of some stuff. Recentally, I've noticed that hes gotten...smaller, just not as healthy looking as 6 months ago. I weight him once a week, and...

My mom was shopping and saw a nice camera on sale and she got it for me!! I felt it was time I introduced my pigs, since I have only been on here for 2.5 years! Please excuse bad photo taking; my moms the only behing the camera, so I have only even taken about 20 photos. Pumpkin, my 6 year old...

Sorry if the grammer isn't correct, writing this through tears. I have miniature Horses, and we clip them. With moms bad back, we decided to build a rasied platform for them to stand on while they get clipped. It was all good, till today. Brent got me to try and get Rhino up onto it, with no...

I'm sure many of you have heard about it but for those who have not, heres a link YouTube - Earth Hour 2008 On March 29, at 8pm-9pm local time, many cities world wide are taking part in Earth hour and everyone in that city will turn off their lights for one hour. Our family is joining in!

I need to wash my long haired boy, Pumpkin. The only thing I'm worried about is that him and his buddy, Twoonie, can get a little, studly, sometimes. Should I be worried that if I bathe Pumpkin, then put him back in the cage that they will fight, as Pumpkin will smell different? Should I wash...

Yeah! Its that time of year, at least for the us and canada. Time to get some more light at night. But I don't think my horses will be very happy with their hour late feeding (especially since its usually around 10am 😊 )
