it will be two sows, and we will offcially start looking for the pigs next weekend. Until then, we are going to be buying supplies and setting up the cage.
 
I am so happy for you, all!

So are you going to make a 2x3 C&C cage with the run you talked about? Congrats I am so happy for you!!!
 
Thats fantastic news. I know how happy you must feel, since I got my two after months of waiting. Woohoo! :)
 
Oh ya if you go to the O.H.S. got to their web site online and print out the coupon for 20% off any item in their Best Friends Corner Store, because that would make the 5lb. bag of Cavy Cuisine only 7.50 instead of $9.37

Here is the website.

the original plan was for the cage to be in my room, btu now my parents are getting kinda excited about it too, so its gonna go in the family room! better for the pigs!

we just came back from a shopping trip. We got fleece for bedding and cozies, crib pads for bedding, foodbowls, and we set up the cage in grids(no corplast yet)

I cant wait till they come home!
 
Congrats! Good job on gathering all of the information! I bet your parents were impressed!

Yay I am so happy for you!!! So have you found any piggies yet? =) =) :D
 
Its great that your family has taken intrest. You and your family will absolutly them. My mom likes them, but we have 3 dogs (kept downstairs by a babygate), 2 cats in the back bedroom who never leave that room, a fish and the 2 gp's. The boys are my pets. They are in my room, but im up there alot so they get lots of attention. Congrats!!!
 
I think you should pat yourself on the back for a job well done! It sounds like your research paid off and it's so cool that your parents are getting excited too!

Thanks! Yeah, my parents said the convincnig element was all the research (the entire speech was 56 minutes long - I timed it during practice) they were really impressed and figured that if i ws willing to do that much work just to get one, that i'd be a pretty good mom.
 
Good for you!

Check on craigslist.org under pets for folks looking for homes for their piggies. People remodeling, going away to school, whatever... You can find folks in your own area.

I adopted all of my piggies this way.
 
It was the same with me. At first they were not sure because they thought that I wasn;t responsible enough. As soon as I started researching and telling them information, they realised that it wouldn't be a bad idea.
 
we are going out to buy the coroplast and food this week. All the other stuff we mostly haave. We are planning a roadtrip for this weekend in which we are going to visit all the big shelters in all of Oregon. I can't wait!!!
