Danish Newbie here :)

Hi GPC
I would like to introduce myself and join the forums here. I've read a lot of threads in here before I got my pigs, so I was absolutely sure to "know it all" before I got my piggies home. So thank you all for a great site with lots of good info, you can't find elsewhere (especially not in Denmark).

Yesterday I brought my small cavies home (7 and 8 months old) and they are both CH Teddies (aka swiss teddy, a more fluffy version of the normal teddy) and they are ADORABLE! So cute that I want to just cuddle with them all day. I'm gonna add some photos if I'm capable of doing that. Not much of a computer genius.
But I have a little problem. I wanna cuddle, but they rather hide I know they are stressed out so I'll have to wait until they get used to their new home, but I just love them so much
Should I make them sit on my lap with a treat and a towel and cuddle them some minutes a day? Or just leave them be and tame them very gradually? I've read that some people prefer the slow way while others are like: "You have to pet them everyday".

I really want them to be happy when I get into the room where the cage is. It's in my office, so I go in here really often!

Btw their names are Bruno Marsvin and Lille Pomfritten. Danish names I know, so I'll try explain and translate them for you They are both girls but Bruno is just such a cute name even though it's for a male. Marsvin is the Danish word for Guinea Pig. She is named after Bruno Mars and I just added "vin" at the end, so in English it would be like Bruno Cavy but it's so funny that Bruno's last name is a part of Marsvin lol at least that's my opinion (maybe it's only funny in my language, but it would be like naming a snowman Enrique Iglacier, if you get what I mean )
The other girl's name translates into Little French Fry. In Denmark you use that about a young person who is little, cute, curious and a little naughty and it matches her perfectly lol

Well, thank you for listening and I hope you will welcome me even though I'm from Denmark You should know how much trouble I've had translating all those guinea pig words and phrases that you won't find in a dictionary! I spend hours on google to see the picture and then trying to find the Danish word for it so I could buy it etc. But now everything should be okay. I'll try find a picture of their cage too, so you can see how creative I had to be (we have nothing like C&C cages nor materials in DK, so I used 2 plastic bed drawers and jointed them and made a 2 floor hidey house out of two plastic children toy boxes) - I'll show you soon.
