My oldest 16 got us in the world of guinea pigs. Now my other 3 boys adore her (Susan) our new addition to our family(we were told she around 6 months).We love our pets. We have 3 dogs chole 10yrs, Ash 6yrs and Isabella 1yrs. A leporad Geko 5yrs. (Smiley) and My son 13yrs has a cornsnake in his room! (Dr. Pepper)And 2 gerbiles squirley and snowball (one passed away month ago and the one recently) My oldest cared for them, they live for 4 years!! I have had dogs,geribles and rabbits.The other 2 we study on and Knew everything because I did'nt want us to kill a critter and it was my fault over me knowing nothing.
WELL, Susan we got from a PET STORE(I know boo) We just held her and wanted her.We just thought they were like gerbiles or a rabbit. I spent hour talking to the lady making sure we had everything we needed, got the biggest cage, food, water bottle,Hay, bedding and even V- C drops to put in the water. She even told me 1 or 2xs a week give her little bit of apples or oranges. This gal also use to have them and even raised babies She use to have certifice for small pets. She basically helped all small animals that no one wanted and keep them forever or until she found a home!!! So I trust her, this is WHY we got Susan!! But now sad :ashamed: after finding this site and reading I am not sure if I doing the right thing for our sweet pet. They are so much more. I have so many ??? and GUIDENCE I been reading for 2 days now trying to make sure we are good but getting overwhelmed. So any takers on me getting guidence?? :sorry:Sorry I found you after the fact we bought one from a pet store. It'S amazing you have world for these sweethearts. I felt embarassed reading and did not want to join but now I just need to move forward to give our Susan a good life!!So if anyone would let me nibble on there ear, I , my sons and Susan would apprecaite it!
