I'm heading out for a bit of a drive down towards Perioa to see Nugget. I'll hopefully be bringing him home too. I got his isolation cage all set up and everything.

Very cool. I hope you and him really connect, he will have a great home. Don't forget to show us pictures!

"Isolation" sounds so mean! Call it "quarintine". lol.

Well, the "quarintine" C&C cage is ready to go this way the boys can see their new buddy but won't be in contact with him directly. He is suppose to be getting his check up tomorrow so it'll be a short quarintine for Nugget.

Acctualy you want to quarintine in a totally seperate room. From GL:

Quarantine: Quarantine any new pig you bring into your home for 2 to 3 weeks behind closed doors. Wash hands and arms well in between handling the new and the resident pig and consider changing your shirt or wearing a removable cover-up when handling the newcomer (or in case of illness, the sick pig). This will help insure the new pig does not introduce any illness or parasites to the one you already have. Consider a visit to the vet for your new cavy (read over the advice on Veterinary Care below.

We're having a problem getting the meeting place set up. I'm hoping to have it all done by tonight. You just want to do one adoption and the daughter chooses then to come see her mother who has the guinea pig. Doh!
