    okay sasha had an episode of that 'breathing' type thing again just now. is it normal to be able to feel that on her belly? it did not happen after exertion. in fact, she's been very inactive today and yesterday. she only comes out of her hut to eat. she will let me hold her for a long time also...

    General Moving Back to America - Guinea Pig Travel?

    We lived in Germany for 7 years and while we were there we got a dog & cat. We moved with them from Germany to the US a year ago. There was a lot of paperwork involved and we had to get a health certificate for each from our vet that was good for 10 days. It was kind of hard to coordinate...

    yes i am pretty sure both are pregnant. just got them last week at Petsmart... i hope to keep the babies, but i guess that depends on how many there are total... will have to invest in more caging. i can for sure hear & feel something from both of their bellies now. a squeaking, a grinding...
