Hi! I am CavySavvyGirl. I am new here and would like to introduce me & my 2 boars, Bear and Snoopy. Bear is a Lemon Agouti and Snoopy is a black&white American Shorthair.

Picture:


(Bear is on the left, Snoopy on right).

Snoopy's story:

My mom is a teacher, and about a year ago one of her student brought by 2 male guinea pigs - Snoopy and Cookie, as we named them. Sadly, not long afterwards, Cookie died of unknown causes. :sad: But, Snoopy is still here to this day.

Bear's Story:

We decided that Snoopy needed a friend, and, after much searching, we could not find a rescue that we could get to at a short notice. However, one day we walked into PetCo and were looking at the guinea pigs (just looking, we were planning to drive to a rescue about 4 hours away). The employee asked if we would like to see some guinea pigs that an owner had given up to them. We said yes, and they brought 3 guinea pigs out front - one tricolor shorthair, one lemon agouti, and 1 tricolor pregnant female. Of course, we had to get a boar, so the pregnant female was off limits. So, I chose the lemon agouti, and Bear has been my fuzzbutt baby ever since.

Currently, they are living in a large homemade cage, but they will be upgraded to a 3x4 c&c cage with a 1x2 loft within the next 3 weeks. lol

Welcome to the forum! I'm sorry about Cookie's death, maybe he had a URI? :(
Bear and Snoopy are some very adorable piggers!!

Adorable! How long have you had bear? Since he was at the petstore, even though he was dropped off he could have still been exposed to mites or an URI, so just keep a heads up on how he is doing until you take them to a cavy savvy healthy visit!

Aww, thank you everyone! and wheeks of joy from Bear & Snoopy as well. :) I have had Bear since August, so I don't think I need to be worried about mites or URI from the pet store. Thanks for the compliment on their names, Razzle!
