Yep, haven't even told the family yet so everybody... shhhh :) My question is... any safeguards I should take? I read a particularly ugly thread just now that was more a focus of rehoming and that's not my situation (with Juniper and Lenny at least). I just want to know if there is anything I...

Hi all. I feel guilty for not posting pictures and updates more often but here is one :) Juniper is a fat and happy, well adjusted pig with a big attitude! Bossy that guy is! I still melt when I look at that sweet little face though. I have other pictures but can't upload them right now...

You know how when you start typing in an address in the address bar it pops up with the sites you visit? We normally just hit the first letter of something and then the arrow key and hit enter, easy peasy. Until I started visiting this site more than google so now my husband hits g, arrow and...

I hope this is the right place to post. Ya'll have helped me with so much and this is the only forum I belong to (maybe I should join a parenting one but the guinea pig parents here are so much better than judgy, catty human parents on parenting forums ;) ) so I thought I'd get some of your...

I was surprised when I heard that familiar wheeking while I was picking up a craigslist purchase and asked if that was a guinea pig. I was horrified when I walked into the room and realized they were living in a tote. I found out they had lived in it since she got them over 2 months ago as...

Can somebody link me to the forum rules, please? I've looked and looked and can't find them. Thanks

We built our coroplast box last night, I have yet to actually put it in the cage. For now I just have the towels placed in the bottom and the fleece draped over and clipped to the edge of the box. I have considered sewing which would involve a lot of cutting to make the towels work and I'm...

And I'm so excited and needed to share with somebody who understands!! 3 months after Juniper showed up and now I will have a complete C&C instead of a C&Shower curtain. Which has worked well, and still is but I've been craving a lift out option. I've also been seeing these really nice pads...

Oh, never mind, that's just my guinea pig. Lenny. Right after this, he peed on my leg. :eek:

My husband has suggested putting grip tape on the ramp to the kitchen loft. He says grip tape is kind of gritty, like sand paper. I think it's used on skate boards. I'm thinking it would be awesome for helping with their nails but I'm worried about it maybe bothering their pads. Can anyone...

Hi all! I get on here *almost* daily, see whats going on, maybe search a question, look at pictures etc. I just feel like I don't have much to offer on questions and advice, but when I feel like I have a little knowledge I offer it up (I mean, I have owned a guinea pig for a month now...

I would like to introduce our new guy, Lenny. (our 2 year old named him... Wonder Pets, anyone?) Lenny is the crazy haired dude. Juniper is over to the side going into their man cave. Juniper loves him. Maybe a little too much ;) They really are quickly becoming best buds though...

I'm getting Juniper a friend :) This means we've decided to keep him. I'll figure out how to move them when that time comes, but in the meantime, he's lonely. So I'm picking up another rescue today or tomorrow. The guy has already been quarantined for a few weeks at his current foster (he's...

We're going to be going out of town, leaving early in the morning and coming back around 3pm the next day. I know none of my neighbors since we just moved here, in fact, we don't know anybody here. So I'm not handing someone keys to my house. I know twice a day is ideal but if I give him a...

Hi all! It's been a few days and I wanted to update on the guinea pig you all helped us catch. We really liked the name suggestion of Juniper, so that is what we are calling him now. Juniper is fantastic. He's doing great. He eats like a little pig, that's for sure! I still can't get over...

I noticed a guinea pig in my backyard today. He/she hides in a rather big juniper bush and looks fat and clean so I think he is new to the 'wild'. He comes out and munches on the grass and we took him some chopped celery he devoured. We tried to catch him but he ran back in the bush and...

Hi all! Today we noticed that a cute, fluffy little guinea pig has moved into our back yard. Problem is, we live in Idaho and are expecting snow... yikes! So I've joined looking for advice for this poor little guy/gal. I'll start a thread with all the details and questions. Thanks for any...
