New additions to the family
Abby is now the proud new owner of two cute guinea pigs. I lost my mind for a minute and convinced my hubby to let her get them. She had been asking for a bunny, but the research I did convinced me that a bunny wouldn't be the best choice for her. Guinea pigs are known to be great pets for kids and aren't known to bite. It's recommended that you get two because they are herding animals and like to be together. As I was doing my research, I found a family who wanted to give their two piggies away, along with their cage, because their kids had become too busy and lost interest. They are less than a year old. They are pretty shy right now but are eating great. Their names are Lenny and Patches. I need to get some pictures. I'd love to hear from any other pig owners out there and any advice or recommendations.

We used to have a guinea pig and he loved out dog--he would whistle for the dog to come see him. They were really cute. I think they are like hamsters--you have to keep them clean and make sure they have a proper diet. No advice here--it's been a few years (like lots) since I've owned one. I do remember it being very sweet.
When my twins were age 2, we had some friends who had a couple of guinea pigs that the girls would play with all the time! They absolutely loved them! The girls used to have short-all's that they would wear in the AZ hot summer months, and they would stuff the guinea pigs in the chest pocket and walk around with the little heads sticking out. Very cute! Love your blog!
