I am so happy I've found this site! Okay, so... I post a ton of pictures of all of my fur babies on my Facebook account but I seemed to get looked down on when people see all of my piggy pictures! They say, "WOW, you must REALLY love your Guinea pigs!" well, yes I do; why wouldn't I??! I work in animal oriented store, so my co-workers, of all people should understand why I love these amazing pets, but no luck! I just told them if they don't want to see my pictures in their newsfeed, to just 'hide' me because it won't stop any time soon! :D So, in keeping with my theme :D Here are my babies :) 24623_566606046695107_2123323643_n.jpg65599_565493386806373_2077398241_n.jpg480097_566605783361800_233677277_n.jpg528244_566605730028472_1782255116_n.jpg546161_561271000561945_227838872_n.jpg ❤️

I get that a lot. 'It's just a dog/cat/guinea pig/rabbit/horse.'
Nooo... And don't you dare call my animals 'it'!

Welcome, I just joined too. Those people don't know what they are missing! I love nothing more than being greeted by my piggies when I come home!

They have the cutest faces!! They are smiling :) :) :) I work in a big corporate office, and the pictures at my desk are of my two piggies, my dog, and my bird! Reminds me what I am working for, especially during those late nights!

Welcome! Cute pictures!! We are all cavy crazy here it is a nice place to be :) Almost everyone else I know thinks I'm a weirdo for guinea pigs being my favorite pets, and why don't I get a 'real' pet like a cat or a dog. I think they don't know what they are missing.

Oh my goooosh, they're absolutely adorable! People say I'm "obsessed" with my piggy, too, even though I don't even post that many pictures! We're all crazy pig people here :)

Welcome, this forum is a great place.

My pigtures are also under-appreciated on Facebook, but they find it to be quite homey here. :mischievo

OMGosh, they are absolutely adorable!!!! Welcome to the craziest place on earth!!! I'm obssessed and I don't even have my piggies yet!!!! So what would your friends think of me? I'm going to start looking for another place to live by the end of this year or the beginning of next year because my landlord has a "no pets" clause in our leases and when I asked about getting piggies, they still said no, that they can't make exceptions. So I'll find someone who will let me!!! :cheerful: So in the meantime I'll just get all the things I'll need ahead of time and be ready when the time comes. Can't wait!!!

I love your piggys! They're adorable! :D And I can relate--The first time I posted pictures of MooMoo on Facebook, my best friend commented with, "You really need to have another baby.." How rude was that?! I deleted her comment & let her know that that was not cool in a pm. People just don't get it. I never thought gpigs would steal my heart, but they have! Welcome!:)

Love those photos, especially the last one! You're definitely among kindred spirits here. I often feel like an oddity since I'm the only adult piggy owner I know with no kids, but I feel right at home here. Thankfully my friends are pretty much all animal lovers so they wouldn't say "It's only a....." and they think I'm a bit eccentric anyway, so it's no surprise that I have piggies with a huge cage living on fabric and with a swimming pool for a playpen and a toy box more full than most kids.
