Blog Trying to get a 2nd pig!

[willowsmom]

Hi guys! So I have one guinea pig her name is willow and I love her very much I would love to get another piggie but there's a problem... my mom. She dosn't think willow needs a friend even though pigs are social and NEED another pig. But my mom is so stubborn she says she dosn't need a friend and that I need to stop complaning. But i know willow would be so much happier so can you guys help I really need suggestions. Thanks :cheerful:

Show her articles listed on cavyspirit.com about the social life of Guinea Pigs.

Offer to do chores in exchange for getting Willow a second friend.

I did that, my mom is deciding. I might get another piggie after vacation.

what do chores?

Yeah, just tell your mom, "I promise to do the laundry or the dishes in exchange for a new guinea pig to adopt." You know, like that!

She'll probably say yes. I know I would! Good luck!

ask her how she would feel if she had to live alone in a cage, and she had nobody else that could speak her language, and relate to her? And make a show of being responsible with Willow (which you most likely already are), and show her infomation about them
