Hey there, I'm Akii. I just joined this site so I'm going to introduce myself.
I'm a teenage girl with lots of interests and hobbies. The biggest ones being music (I play piano, flute, and bass clarinet), dance (swing and square), and art.
I have always had a love for all animals, my favorite being wolves. I developed an interest in guinea pigs at a very early age. My household currently ownstwo dogs, four cats, a lot of chickens (like twenty something?), and a canary. (and there are rumors of my sister getting a hamster... maybe) So definitely animal central, and we've always been that way.
The first time I had guinea pigs we had three sows. There was Alisha the American shorthair, Storm the Abyssinian, and Princess the mystery longhair (I think she was a silkie but I'm not sure). That was a long time ago and since then we've moved so the whole set up is different.
I don't currently own any guinea pigs but I am looking into getting some soon. I joined this site so that I can make sure I get everything set up right and so that I can build a good community of guinea pig lovers in case I run into any trouble once I get mine.
I've done a lot of research on housing and breeds and things like that and I am so excited! There are some kinks I need to work out before I can really start pursuing guinea pigs (like where to put the cage).
Right now the tentative plan is to get two sows. I really love the fuzzy and longhair breeds, but I don't know if those will be reasonable or not (just because of maintenance and being able to actually get the piggy).
So, yeah, hi.
