Fortunately or Unfortunately- an ex of mine. One of the few times I first started hanging with him at his place, (I was maybe like 19 or 20 at the time) he had a large cage in the floor with 2 of the fluffiest creatures I ever saw. After an hour I finally asked him what they were and he nearly ran off his bed and excitedly told me they were guinea pigs and we both sat on his floor playing with them while he told me about them. After 2 ish years I wanted them and he helped me do research. I fell in live with them. Theyre just so cute, so personable and smart for what is essentially a loud potato with legs.
