Hello everyone! My name is Katie and I LOVE guinea pigs. But who doesn't?
A while back my boyfriend Charlie and I decided it was time for us to get a pet, and we decided that guinea pigs would be the perfect pets for us. Boy were we right!!! Last December, for my 5 year anniversary present, Charlie suprised me with a female piggy (Babs). The good news is she is the sweetest most adorable piggy I could have hoped for. The bad news is she came from a pet store. At the time we didn't know we could adopt, but we have since learned the error of our ways. We knew Babs needed a buddy, so we found a local piggy adoption place, but the only girls they had were pregnant. So we waited and waited and FINALLY, a few days ago we got our second guinea, Missy. Missy is sweet and shy but a little bossy. We hope they will be good friends in time. So far they are getting along pretty well. I have built a 2x5 C&C cage for them which they really enjoy. Below are some pics of the piggys. The first is Babs (laying on Charlie's tummy), followed by Missy. I love them so much and I'm very excited to be a part of this forum! Thank you all for all the information you provide to new piggy owners like me!!
