Guinea pigs

Truffle Wuffle and Polo Wolo chilling
There is an iced bottle in a sock which Truffle is using as a pillow. Polo is enjoying the coolness of a metal dustpan during cage cleaning

Oh they are absolutely adorable they look so cute chilling in their beds. I love the sound of guinea pigs my mum is mad on them. I will show her the fotos when I go.

They are so pretty do you have to groom them?
Can you pick them up easily?

I love them I have never seen one except in s pet shop, and they where mostly in the houses

They do need grooming. Truffle gets mats which need to be cut off with scissors. They sometimes need a bum bath as boars have grease glands near their bottoms. My piggies run away when I start to pick them up, but once they are on my lap they snuggle down and enjoy being stroked. They love being stroked in their cages

Yes, they are quite shy of strangers but very friendly once they get to know you. They love food, which helps.

This is their cage complex. Quite messy which is normal

They used to share their cage, but fell out and live in separate cages now

My aunty in the UK had a piggie, it was a rescue and couldn’t be held with other pigs but loved her cats. My mum sat on the kitchen floor for hours cuddling him she refused to get up and sit with the others. She said every time someone opens the fridge it squeaked and wanted a treat
She was absolutely crazy about him, he was a long haired boar.

Yes, they do have a way of quietly running the household
