I finally got my ever so lonely 4 month year old,male guinea pig a pal. I just got two little male baby guinea pigs (the petshop person said that they were about 3 weeks old) and we are currently going through the quarantine period, I am soo excited, I can't wait to introduce one of them to my current piggy. I am only keeping one of them, the one with black patches (named Ziggy) because my mother has totally fallen in love with the little baby with brown patches (mom named him Pocket). So my mom is going to take Pocket back home (which is about 4 hours drive away from me, I'm still going through uni in a different state). But anyways, it is cool how I have managed to convince her about the joys of guinea piggies. My mom says that she 'tolerates' animals. I guess she has finally given in =) three cheers for guinea piggies!:cheerful:
