Hello everyone!
My name is Lucy and I have been the owner of my very first Guinea Pig since Sunday 18th January 2009
Nice to join you all, I've read all of the rules and I have to say...this is a very regulated board and I'll try my best to make sure I stick to non-chat typing. It'll be hard after years of posting on very free boards but I'll do my best hehehe.
I have a confession to make : I am a cat person. Please, don't hold this against me! My partner LOVES Guinea Pigs and had them when he was little in Hungary. On Sunday we went to this HUGE petstore (the biggest in Sydney if not NSW I think) and he fell in love with our new Guinea Pig. We named him Maximus Alvin (Maxi for short) (Alvin coz he looks like a chipmunk! Or a squirrel...but I don't know any famous cartoon squirrels).
Maxi is approximately 8 weeks old and has a chestnut coloured face with a darker brown body. He is an Abyssinian Guinea Pig and very beautiful. However, being very different to kittens, I am at a bit of a loss with Maxi and his very un-cat-like behaviour!
I have found a post in another discussion section that I will add my queries onto. I hope to be chatting soon with all of you and picking your brains about Guinea Pigs.

P.S. I have attached a photo of Maxi to this post - if it is too big I apologise.
