woop yay!
You should probably add that guinea pigs kinda need to live in pairs or groups of male/male, female/female or neutered/spayed/male/female.
And that they need a minimum of 7.5sq ft, preferably 10.5 for 2. c:

Those are some adorable guinea pigs. :D
Lonin only has 2 right now. :c Considering getting more in spring. Haven't decided yet. One is ~6 months older than the other, but they're both around 4 now. c:

Dash in front, Henry behind.
They used to live seperately, Dash lived with 2 other pigs who died at different times. Just very unlucky that they both had problems a vet couldn't fix. :c And Henry's lived on his own since he was 3 months old and his brother died of a stroke. We tried him with 4 other guinea pigs and he didn't get along with any of them. He's always had his cage next to other pigs, though.
Introduced them when Dash was on his own and they get along great. c:

I love guinea pigs. Have two. A rescue Red Eyed White Boar named Samsung and an texel named Porcelini (means piggies in Italian).

Will get pictures later. :3

Also I have to add that there are no-longer wild Guinea Pigs.
Sorry for my slow response time on RP's. My new job steals ALL my time. :(

Hi! :3 I loove cavies, now I've one cavy, his name is Qurupeco, and has 3 years. Is male, his race is agouti and has pedigree xd (Sorry if my english is horrible, I'm spanish :3)

Another important fact is that it mustn't be given lettuce every day, only give it once a week and not much, because it causes diarrhea.

This is Qurupeco:

In the last picture I do not know what it was doing (?)

Alrighty so Lonin's guinea pigs are kept outside at this point (well looked after, it's all fine) but she's looking into making a C&C cage for the new ones she might be getting in spring so they can live inside since it's a whole load of stress we'd rather not have to go through any more. c:
Getting the grids shouldn't be too much of a problem, but what things can be used for a base? And ways to make it persisent cat-proof? It'd have to be really sturdy because Jack would stand on top of it all the time. XD

Just a correction, Guinea Pigs don't need toys to wear down their teeth, they need unlimited hay which has Silica that wears down the teeth. :)

This is Ro Dah, she's a Silky/America mix

Image

This is Fus she's an America with what seems to be a small bit of Silky because she has really long hair just behind her ears. She's the only love bug of the group, the other pigs don't like attention.

Image

This is Godric she's a Teddy and was one of my first guinea pigs, sadly I had another Teddy but she passed away after I did my best to save her. She was improving but I guess it just wasn't enough.

Image

I also rescue and rehome pigs. This is one pig named Nova that found a good home, but he was such an amazing pig that I regret giving him up. :lol: He was such a love bug that he'd stand up on the cage bars to beg for attention, and would stay there so you could pet him. He's a Crested

Image

This is my cage, though it's changed a bit these are the best pictures I have of it...
