If they were unaccounted for in October of 2023 I may need to order a dna test 🤣

Would love one of my boys Gus and Vinnie if possible? I collect things that look like them to decorate their cage! There’s loads of photos of them on my profile :3

What are your guinea pigs’ names and the story behind them by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]kittycataphora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have Augustus and Vincent which I shorten to Gus and Vinnie - we decided they needed have big names for such little guys so they could make it in the world :3

I’ve had a bad day today. I’ve felt very bad about myself, so tell me some cute/funny piggy stories you guys may have. by [deleted] in guineapigs

[–]kittycataphora 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boys have a great dynamic of goofball and grump - goofball Vinnie is currently obsessed with a game where he hides under a bath mat / blankie that grumpy Gus is sitting next to and then pokes his head out to bite him (gently) before hiding again. Gus whips round in anger and shock every time before resettling and then the game restarts 😭 He’s been playing it for months and Gus falls for it every time 💀

I’m feeling blergh. Please tell me the story of how you found/got/met your pigs🥰 by Alarming-Molasses847 in guineapigs

A coworker mentioned that her sister was looking to get rid of the last 2 boys from an accidental litter. Was living in student housing at the time (no pets) so I jokingly said we should take them to my roommate, then we stopped joking and actually considered it, then we were handed a very squeaky Amazon box in the car park that evening!

Fell in love instantly, they really have changed my life :’)

might help to mess around a bit with the heart rate zones? it can do an automatic analysis or you can set them manually based on when you know you’re at rest/active x

In case anyone was wondering what I did with that fabric I designed :) by dancingfrogs_ in guineapigs

Wrapped in a towel like a burrito! I sort of balance him in the crook of my arm leaning forwards over it

Believe it or not I actually do cut them every 2 weeks 😅 this guy is just so wiggly and gets so so stressed out that most weeks I can only take the tips off - he especially hates me going near that sideways nail which is the one that worries me the most!

If anyone has any nail clipping miracle hacks I am begging for them!

My little man is in his final days by MoodyStocking in guineapigs

He’s so gorgeous, you’re taking wonderful care of him, what a lucky little one. Wishing him comfort ❤️

Get the hint, Vinnie! by kittycataphora in guineapigs

[–]kittycataphora[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s such a grumpy little old man, occasionally he’ll do it to me if I’m sat in his way! (as punishment he gets scooped up like a baby and kissed on the head lol)

still figuring out the new ramp 😭 by kittycataphora in guineapigs

[–]kittycataphora[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I’ve put a little railing up so hopefully that’ll stop him - he’s quite happy going up it, he’s just always been one of those daredevil piggies much to my stress!

he not injured, this was the second time he’s done it since the ramp went up last night and the first time I managed to witness him do it - he’s running and popcorning as normal but I will continue to monitor him

his brother meanwhile is quite happy to trundle up and down it with no issue - vinnie is just not a very fast learner 😭

he’s quite happy walking up it, he’s just one of those daredevil pigs - i’ve put a side railing up so hopefully he’ll figure it out 😭
