Guinea pigs :D
 

Not that I'm animal mad or anything, but...


I'm getting a group of guinea pigs :-D

We've had a 3 storey rabbit hutch stood empty for months now, but given baby being due anytime and the need to be generally stingy with money, guinea pigs are more suitable right now than rabbits. Rusty says every Gpig he's been near was scared of him so I have to show him that not all of them with squeal and run away from him!!

There's a lady in Cheshire who regularly fosters Gpigs and finds them new homes and hopefully we're going up to see her tomorrow night, with a view to collecting the chosen pigs next weekend/next week.

I'm all excited now!
It's nice to have something to take my mind off the back ache and general feeling-like-a-whale-ness!! :-p

Oh, and a word of praise for Bevan - he has settled down beautifully in the new house, and taken to sleeping downstairs really well. I thought we'd have lots of nights of howling when he realised he couldn't sleep upstairs with us, but he's been fine. What a good puppy :laugh:

haha yay for ur puppy!

Awesome! We had two guinea pigs when I was younger but they liked weeing on you when you got them out. *looks forward to cute pics*

That's awesome ;) And yay for good puppies!

G.Pigs are great pets and as you're pregnant and therefore will have a kid they will be more suitable than a rabbit in most cases. If you ever want advice, just ask!
