She is very sweet and every time i take her in my house to give her a stroke she runs back home and jumps into her hutch when she has had enough :) I took her into our office to take a picture of her and for some reason she likes the nescafe pot. She likes eating alot and if i shut me eyes she will squeak and start sniffing my face trying to wake me up!
She is so cute but she gets very jumpy sometimes :) she has figured out that if she keeps squeaking i will give her some food so she wakes us up in the morning by squeaking her little head off!!! She has a favourite patch of grass in the garden that she runs to when she gets lost xx

Minerva is a white and black spotted Teddy. She is my little "cow" with her colorings, and just as good natured. The only people she lets pet her are myself and my boyfriend, anyone else she runs in circles! She loves Pink Floyd, and chatters any time it's on. She knows the sound of a bag of food vs. any other type of bag, and man oh man does she sing! She likes to keep her sister, Diana, in check by nipping her once in a while when the food bowl is being hogged.
Very cute and not shy at all, he doesn't squeek which is good because he lives in my bedroom and comes out to play everyday, though he makes a lot of noise at night chewing his water bottle and digging in his food, lovely little man =]
Ralph is and has always been a very clever cavy. Everyone says that Ralph does not understand a word i say when i read him bed time stories but i snuggle him close and he pays attention very well. He is all brown except for one little with spot by his head. He enjoys honeydew melon and when i turn on "soft rock." Ralph gets along well with kids and animals. He is not the guinea pig that will go to bite a stranger. He is nice and calm. I could never ask for a better guinea pig than Ralph! I hope you agree.
Freckles is very outgoing, clever, energetic, and spunky. He has a brother, named Ralph. He is quite the eater. He is 1 and a half years old. He is multi-colored and weighs 2.5 lbs. He gets along great with my other pets. He is the best guinea pig in the world.

Biscuit is a very noisy little girl. She has a least six rosettes all over her. She enjoys cuddles, and is very fond of strawberries. Her best friend is a rabbit called Toffee. She's quite a shy character but very recently she ventured out of her hutch by herself for the very first time, needless to say she takes the opportunity to do so as much as possible now. These outings are accompanied by much squeaking just to make sure eberybody knows she is there. At dinnertime she tends to ignore food put down for her but instead steals the food Toffee is eating right out of her mouth, this has been going on a while and Toffee now just accepts this.
Tiny is a mixed male. His color is brown and white. He is sweet to me and everyone. He also gives everyone kisses. he also keeps me happy all the time. He lives with my brothers rabbit named cuious
Dark Choclate is a black and brown american. He lives with my pet dwarf. He is also a father of 3. his favorite pasttimes include playing hide and seek in the room but he always wins. His girl friend is whitechoclate. She is a mix but is just as sweet.
squeaky is my first guinea pig . he is a healthy , laid back , furry piggie ! he love's to eat . he mostly alway's has his head dipped in the food bowl . he lives with his best friend , gracie . they are both young , and one day they plan to have babies . squeaky is very special to me . i have only had him a short period of time , but squeaky and gracie have become one of my best friends . the love going out side , and unlike gracie , sqeaky love's our lazy cat ! they both like to run around , and get groomed . i mean , how can you not love a face like that ?!
gracie is my pride and joy . when i first got her , her ear was cut in half , and the other ear has a small hole in it . she looked extremly thin , and just overall un healthy . well i could not stand a poor guinea pig in that type of condition . so i adopted her . now she is doing fine . she gained some weight , and her ears are doing better . she lives with my other guinea pig sqeaky in my room . i them every day , and they have both become my best friends .

Tinkerbell is the most outgoing guinea pig you will ever meet. She is all white with a brown spot on her back, also with a brown ear. She loves her treats and is a fat piggie! Also she loves all my other animals like my dog. What makes her so cute is her curiosity. Tinkerbell is just a cute, lazy, 3 year old guinea pig who lover everyone!!
Chester is an adorable 'multicolored' guinea pig. I like the fact that his colors look very close to my cat's colors. He's only about three months old, and is very curious. He also LOVES my other pets. He follows my dog around the house when i'm holding him, and he jumps at the chance to snuggle my cat. He's the best!
Donut is a cute little black guinea pig with a white stripe down her face. She likes being taken out and cuddling agenst me, Once, she even got into my hoodie pocket! It took a little while to get her out. She is with me now at the computer, looking around. She is very curious, and the first time i let her out of the cage, i ALMOST lost her under the couch! She likes being scratched on the head, but hates taking baths. She isn't as bad in the tub as her cage-mate, Muffin, though. Muffin performs flying leaps out of the small tub i give them baths in! Its so funny... :) She purrs when you just kinda rest your hand on her back, and loves to run around. Her favorite food is lettuce, and she also likes cucumber. Probably the funniest thing that happened was when she got the hiccups!
Short haird ginny pig colors tan and white
Very fat, sweet, and adoreable!
she is a cute and lovable guinea pig, she loves to be stroked on her rosets and purrs whenever someone dose. she hates baths and once caught a small cold from a slitly cold one!

She is a great guinea pig!
She is a cute and lovable guinea pig, she loves to be held and groomed. She purrs and kisses you when you stroke her rosettes!!! She loves sitting with her friends on hot summer mornings and nibbling the grass. She was born on valintines day 2006 and she came pregnant. She had three tiny babys on the way back from the vet caus we thought she was getting fat! She loves to eat and run around in the gardan. Sometimes she climbs into the vejy patch and eats some of the plants! She is really smart because when ever you open the fridje door, she squeeks and runns around the caje. One of her babys is still with us and is grown up, Olga da Polga still looks after the Baby though!!! She knows her name because when we call 'Olga' (her nick name) she looks up and whistles.

Jazz is dumb as a rock most of the time but he's my whole world. He's soo sweet but he hates it when i cut the hair near his rear (I trim him regularly because he's not a show pig and tends to sleep where he pees) He's the best fat piggy in the world!
She's a little nuts and she does this coughing thing once in a while (done it her whole life) but she's an abosolute sweetheart and never lets go of a chance to come out of her cage to play or cuddle
She is just an absolute doll! Her sister, Bowie, and she run around together in my bedroom on the floor and they go crazy fast jumping randomly all the while :)

Chip is the sweetest baby boy ever. We got him on my birthday last year, so he is a little over a year old. Chip loves to cuddle and loves carrots. He has the cutest big bottom lip. If you ask Chip 'Do you want a snack?' he goes crazy and runs around in circles in his cage squeaking the whole time. We're lucky to have found such a wonderful cavy as our first. He's definately a mommas boy. If he's outside for outside salad, and he gets scared, he runs to me and climbs up in my lap. Everyone falls in love with Chip as soon as they meet him, he has his own myspace page and his own fan club. Believe it or not, we've had cocktail parties so people could come over and meet him. Everyone loves Chip!
Chestnut & white 5 years old. Very friendley cavy she come out & in her cage when I ask her to. She climb thourght the cat flap to come to see us. She knows when we have veg in she squeaks a lot so we can heard her in any room of the house. She is very friendley with other animals I give her a shower and she loves it so much.She is a very lively guiena pig for her age I have had her since I was 10.
black and white
grey and has white paws
Spritzer loves to sleep and chase the females in his enclosure. He's neutered, so he tires of this quickly and returns to nap. However, every time I enter the room he jumps up and runs to the side of the cage to say hello. His favorite foods are peppers and apples, and he will do just about anything for them, including standing up on his hindlegs and walking. He doesn't have great balance, so I consider it a feat if he manages one to two steps before falling over. He also loves to play tag with our other guinea pig, Margarita. Spritzer is a little over four years old and is a prime example of a golden agouti, although the white stripe on his back ruined his career as a show pig.
Total nutter, squeeks when i enter room, loves brokkoli & always pop corning!
White and Brown, and very sweet, and is shy.
white and brown
Pip is really cheeky and has a huge character. He loves cuddles and will just snuggle up on you lap. Pip is really gready and when he wants food he will squeak and never stop until he gets it. He's so hyper and when he comes out for floor time he will run and jump and not even stop for a little rest. Pip is really spoiled and has so many treats and toys it's unbelievable. Pip is about 2 years old and his fur is white, brown and tan.

Cocoa is one of our sweet little piggys. She spends her free time snuggled up into neck. She is very friendly and loves to cuddle and bounce threw out our home.
Oreo is really athletic, and loves to cuddle. She jumps on top of her tunnel each morning when she begs for lettuce, and loves her cage mate, Coco. Oreo is really crazy, and lovable. She is also incredibly adorable! She is really fun! I love her.

He was our first pet together, our baby. Sgt. Pepper was the quiet variety of guinea pig as we’ve come to learn by having Penny, she’s always chattering. He was so calm; he would just sit on your shoulder while you were on the computer or reading for hours; he was the best pet to have. He was odd though, for a guinea pig. He only like pellets and timothy hay, he didn’t care for vegetables or fruit, which Penny loves. He had a few tiny stuffed animals that he loved laying on, and it was the cutest thing to catch him with his head resting on one with his adoring eyes looking up at you.
He is very fast and loves to explore. Chip, hense the name chip, is brown with black slits running along him. This is not an actual phota of him, i got it off the internet. (I don't know how to download pictures)
She is very fast. she loves to run. She is black and white with short fur. Sha has a small pink nose.I think she deserves to be cavy of the month.

This is a tribute to my beloved guinea pig Duchess who passed away on May 9, 2007. She was a sassy yet sweet guinea pig who loved nothing more than to be outside in the backyard in the big cage we built her. Her nickname was Piggy and every morning our family would come outside to the cage in the backyard and greet her and give her her morning helping of lettuce and carrots. She was so tame that we would call her name and she would come sprinting out of the little wooden house we made for her to greet us. She was very territorial over her lettuce often after we gave it to her she would go inside her wooden house and take it in there with her. She was so funny. We had her for four years and she brought so much delight to us. She had a lot of fur and was often so messy that it made us smile. We had her for almost four years but seemed more like four months. When we brought her home from the petstore she was so little that she could fit inside the palm of our hand. Another thing that we found funny is when she would "popcorn" in the air; I think she was mad when she did this. Often, it was after we would take her food dish away to refill it. She was so spoiled that she would get mad when we took something away from her. I am convinced that she is the most beautiful guinea pig in the world. She is an Abyssinian with burnt orange and white markings. Her eyes are two different colors. One is brown and the other is sort of like a dark blue. She is truly one of a kind. She is greatly missed.
She's 2 years old and loves carrots and bananas. Whenever someone's sitting at the computer she nibbles the person's feet. She loves sleeping inside he blankets.

This skinny pig is not mine, but its just too cute not to post!!
Shes Fat and goes crazy over lettuce. She recently has a baby that is likie 4 months old named carl, which is a girl also and they love each other very much ^-^
This is my baby, Toby. I wanted a pet so bad, and my parents decided to get me a guinea pig one Christmas. When I went to get him, he was the last one at the pet store, and they told us he was the runt of the litter. I immediatly fell in love with him. I named him Toby. Toby was always there for me. He learned his name, came when he was called, jumped out of his cage all by himself, and went to the bathroom in a litter box outside of his cage. He ran around the house, and loved being chased by my dog Cooper. When he was hungry, he'd put his paws on the fridge and squeak loudly. He loved to cuddle on my left shoulder only. Sometimes, he would even eat my hair. When we had carpeting on our stairs, he'd love to jump up every single one until he got to the top! His favorite meal was red leaf lettuce, and his pellets. One time he even got his head stuck in his pellet bag. Just recently Toby got very sick. The vet thinks he may have ate something, and it was stuck in his intestines. But, Toby immediatley bounced back, and was completely back to normal for 2 whole weeks! He seemed like such a tough little guy. Sadly however, 2 days ago, he was very sick again when i came home form school. I cuddled him and told him how much I loved him. Unfortunetly, the next morning, Toby had passed away. He was such a big part of my family and I loved him so much. I burried him underneath a tree I planted when I waas just 5 years old. I loved Toby so much and I will never forget him!

This Piggy is amazing. He has brought so many smiles to our life! He is a 2month old pure chestnut crested piggy he has 1 white foot and a white rosette. He was the runt of litter being so tiny we felt sorry for him. The breeder we got him off said he wasn't good enough to be sold! But we insisted. =] He was given a new lease of life. This piggy deffinatley deserves to be cavie of the month! =]
Very wild, fun loving, very social
He's a 6 months old english cavy that absolutely LOVES to be petted or brushed. He's very fast, friendly,and patient. We call him my "lap dog" because if I lay him on my lap he will just sit there and look at me. Oreo squeaks all the time for me too! He is also very very very curious and loves exploring new places in my house. My cavy is so cute so I hope he will be chosen to be the cavy of the month!!!!!
Scout is my third generation guinea pig. I owned his grandmother, his father, and him. He will turn one year old April 15, so he's still my little baby. You cant tell in this picture because he's wet, but he has an arrow shaped white mark on in between his ears, which made my friend think of a medieval archer scout. He is my favorite of all my eight piggies, and I hope his gets to be the cavy of the month.

This is a tribute to Reeses, who left us on 1/12/2007 at the age of 3 yrs. 10 mos. Reeses was the most lovable guinea pig we have ever had. He was a brown, tan & white short hair, and when he squealed for his treats, he sounded like a little lion trying to roar. He loved to snuggle with his mom (me) and always nestled his little nose right under my chin. Reeses loved bath-time, His favorite treats were carrots, apples, timothy hay, and cucumbers. His little lips always turned and orange color after he ate his carrots - like a little kid who's lips turn color when they eat a popsicle! Reeses loved his pig-loo and his stuffed animal. He will be missed by his mom, dad, and his 5 siblings. We love you, buddy!
He is a chocolate vanilla Cavy.
this is my baby toby. sometimes, i think he's a dog. If i open the cage door, he'll jump right out! if I call his name, he'll come, and when he's hungary, he'll put his paws right up on the fridge! he even goes potty in his litter box outside of his cage. i love him sooooo much!!! <3
The last of the litter......... Whe called her Fang because she alllllllways bites me!

another picture of my baby blaze.
So Cute! (we kept him!)
Unfourtunatly, we have sold her/him.(we dont know what sex it is but the owner says that it is getting fat!) We loved it so much but we had to sell shortstuff and freckle sooner or later. (Freckle is the fluffy baby in the bowl!) When I first saw her i fell in love with her. She is GORGEOUS! I love it when she fluffs up.
Our (ex) little monster!
Jimmy funnily enough is a female! She has had 2 lots of babies (4 in each. 1 died each time. Poor babies.) She is a very cuddly girl and she cuddles her nose under your chin!(Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!) She is a gorgeous tortouisshell cavy.
Beautiful boar, black body and a white blaze on his face.(he nibbles on the hutche's bars when he sees me!)
Sienna is a 6 month old peruvian piggy.She is so beautiful, she looks just like her father.Sienna is very tame and loves to sit on my lap or just snuggle up in the covers with me. Yes i admit she is spoiled, just like the rest of our piggy family.
Peruvian
Einstein is very nice and loves to be handled every day. He loves to be around other guinea pigs all the time otherwise he gets very upset.
He is black and white and he loves to cuddle up with anyone. He also loves to dibble on jewerly cause he thinks it tast so good. But to my opion it tast nasty. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! I love him so much when i am sad i can go to him even though he can't talk, i know he is lisening.
My guinea pig is a lovable guinea pig that kisses everybody.He is about 4 years old.I love him very much.He is one of 2 guinea pigs of mine!
A cuddle bug who loves taking naps on my lap. She also likes to chew up each blanket I get her.

Beryl (middle) – 6 months old and always manages to look slightly camp in all her photos. On her way to becoming a big pig! Bumblesquat (right) – 6 weeks old, courtesy of Babs. Still a bit shy, but very cute!

She is a sweet, gorgeous, and cunning piggy!
She loves to eat and is soo cute andI love her to death!!
I actually got Spanky because of my older brother. Our former guinea pig, Butterscotch, had recently died, and I was begging my mom for another. We went to the pet store, and I saw a gorgeous white guinea pig. My brother pointed out a smaller, brown and white guinea pig, but I wouldent listen to him. We brought Spunky, the white cavy, home and she seemed lonesome. We went back to the pet store and the small brown and white cavy was still there. It turned out that she was Spunky's sister. When she unexpectedly had Twister and Chloe, the pet store apologized and said there had been a male in the female cage. Anyway, since then, Chloe and Spunky have passed away, but Twister is continuing the family and now has a son! Spanky, being old, dislikes all guinea pigs except Scout, her grandson. And she really likes to squeal when it's feeding time. =)
black and white
Twister is the one on the left. He is about three years old and very handsome. Scout is the tan one on the right and is about three months old. He is Twister's son. Both of these guineas were born in my basement! They also have a not-so-secret admirer. My dog, Luke, truly believes that they are puppies and tries to lick them to death. It is quite unusual to see two male guineas that aren't brothers get along. The first time they were introduced, Twister bullied Scout. Same thing the second time around, but the third time, he took an unusual liking to the little guy. I also own another one, whom all my guinea pigs like. She is Twister's mother, and is reaching the old age of five. Since Scout's birth, everyone has been calling her Nanna pig (formally known as Spanky).They live together and have the most popular hangout in my house-The Guinea Dome(which in reality is a cardboard box).
handsome 2 month old skinny pig!!
he is very cute
Fluffy, oarnge, and white. He loves to eat and sleep!!! He is the best pet in the whole world because he is so cute and nice. He has gotten lost in the house a couple of times, but all is well.
black in color, it's not very quick but fun to play with. It loves Bath's and Nitrous Oxide :)
I was at the pet store just browsing, when I saw the smallest Guniea pig I had ever seen! She was so cute and skiddish that I couldn't help but get her. At first I didn't have enough money. So I ran home and found all the money I could and even after that I had to borrow some from my brother and sister. But it was worth it. Not only do I have the sweetest pet in the world, but my other pig has a friend as well.
she's a peruvian, one year 5 months old. From mexico
They are the cutest, sweetest babies around! The pic is of when i first got them about a year ago, and they've grown beautifully. Now they each weigh about 2.2 pounds, and they're sweeter than ever. I'll love my babies forever.
she is small, cute and loud! she allways wants attention, and knows how to get it.
"Scotchy" has hair about 8 inches long and growing. I'm a kid so he's very friendly!
Rooster is a new girl to my family. My step-mother thinks i am too crazy about my guinea pigs (5 in total) Since she is very into St. Patrick's day, I decided to share my love of pigs with her love of the Irish. Rooster was the willing glamor model!
When I went to get Pyg from the pet store he was the smallest. A few weeks later I noticed that one of his eyes were bigger than the other and he can't see out of it well. I hope that it doesn't become serious! Pyg likes to lick me and has never bitten anyone. He is sooooooooo sweet! He is the best friend anyone could have!
farmville,va
Goldenish, and white fur
Curly sadly passed away about 2 days after this picture was taken. She had the weirdest hair I have ever seen.
The cutest piggies in the world!
tri colours black white and brown and fat
cute
A beautiful, docile cream-coloured sow. I think Podge should be cavy of the month because sadly she is now blind. She used to have such lovely hazel eyes! Anyway, Podge hasn't let her blindness get in the way. She's now 2 years old, and she's a fine sow. I love her sooo much, and she should definately be named "cavy of the month"!!!
black funny hungry but sometimes gets nervous
Rainebow is funny, she has rather funny fur, in a grey and white colour, she has red eyes which make her look evil.
crazy pig, not the biggest fan of humans...turning five years old on December 4th so I am quite excited--my oldest piggie yet
smart, pretty, likes to read, cute
cute, fluffy, lovable
A wonderful gay
orange and black
This is my sweet, sweet baby. We got her from the humane society. She came with a female friend name Caramel. But unfortunately, Caramel left us suddenly one day, out of the blue I guess. But, my baby is a very calm and gentle pig, she'll just sit there and eat and look at you. She won't bother you, or bug you, she'll only stare. Unfortuately, I've had Zoey for about 2 years now, and she is still a very frantic pig. Oh well, I love her till death do us part.
Rone patern fur, Black eyes, and black paws.
very cute Peruvian
Rose is a sweet cavy. I just know that all of you people are jealous due to her beauty!!! She just one first place, and BOB or for some people who do not know ANYTHING about showing best of breed!!! Anyway Rose should be the cavy of the month because right after the show she had a vist with the vet he told me the she was pregnant. I could not believe it !!! We watched her pregnancy very close and wrote down what happened each day!! The day she had her babies her belly measured a total of 7 inches and 6 centimeters across!!! I had NEVER seen a pregnant cavy get so HUGE in my whole 6 years of rasing cavies!! when it was what I call "veggie-thirty" or what one of my cavies would say, time for the lady to give us carrots,bell peppers, oranges, and apples thirty!! I noticed that Rose, very unlike a pregnant cavy didn't come out of her over-sized hut to eat her favorite, oranges I took a peek in and saw the first babies head popping out!! Due to that, I started freaking out!! So I called the vet to give me instructions on how to help a cavy in labor. Everything was going fine until she had two trying to come out at the same time!! I called the vet again and told him the whole story! He said to give her the space and wait, which I may add was very hard to watch my poor Rose in such agony!! Finaly, after 10 minutes one of the poped out so I grabbed a shop towel which sould ALWAYS be handy when delivering baby cavies! I grabbed it and started to remove the sac but it was to lat, I rubbrd it to try and start it's little heart back up but it had died. So I had to lay it down and help the others!! The one that was trying to come out at the same time as the other one which died actually lived, due to a tiny hole in his sac right at his nose!! After things settled down I took cavy count. She had six total and five that lived!! They all turned out to be AMERICAN SATIN GOLDE AGOUTIES due to tere dad Dakota who is sayin american golden agouti!! Eventhough their mom is just a normal american!! I thank god every day that they are still alive.

He is 3 years old and, according to his last visit to the Vet's, he is very healthy. He weighs approximately 6 pounds. He loves letuce, carrots, apples, celery and me.

Here are my two pigs on a trampoline.Patch is the one on the left and max is on the right. I got Max and Patch from a breeder when tey were about 8 weeks old and they were the best of friends from that day on. They loved lettuce and going crazy in their run on the grass. Sadly neither of them are with us any more and we have a new guinea pig called Peewee and a rabbit called midnight.

Bertie was a sweet little guy, who loved cavy yogurt treats, running around in the grass, and watching anything on the television about ancient Rome. Really! He would squeak and squeal and wouldn't stop until we picked him up and let him watch anything about Rome with us (he loved the PBS show "I, Claudius").
Coco has short fur, and it looks like rabbit fur! with the colors brown and grey. She also has huge eys! She can also jump very far, she seems exactly like a rabbit!
Gizzy is a diabetic and has become blind because of her illness. But that doesn't keep her from emailing her favorite buddies!
She loves food
Mini is kind and gentle and a little bit on the fat side
Daisy is very conceded
daisy is very gentle and trusting she is black white and brown
We named him spike because my daughter said it looks as if someone used gel and spiked his fur. He has a perfect little spike on his forehead. His nickname is Chou Chou (sounds like shoe, shoe.) It is a french term of endearment, but when translated it means cabbage, cabbage.
mini is black and white daisy is black white and brown
This is ed. He is super cute, and he likes to play
Woodstock is my bright orange little ball of fuzz and affection. She loves clover, watermelon and cuddling. I can't imagine not sharing my life with a guinea pig. They're a ray of sunshine no matter how grey your day.

He is the proud guniea warrior father of three beautiful other gunieas. I'm not sure what breed he is but he has silky smooth hair. Churro is the calmest easy going guniea I have ever seen. He'll sit on your lap and get comfortable within seconds and then fall asleep. He's better than having a cat.

my funny furry three at Christmas 2004
Our 3 Piggies have their own personalities for sure. We can only ever get one photo fo the three together as Franklin gets too romantic when he sees the girls! It is a real hoot to do a holiday photo shoot with them! They are great company and entertainment!
I believe he is an Abyssinian cross, but I don't know what with. All I know is that when I let his hair grow it just keeps growing! Spunky Munky is the best pet I've ever had. He's a sweet, independent piggie. For a couple of weeks we shared a cold, and his tiny sniffles and sneezes were the most endearing sounds that pulled at your heartsrings! We made a visit to his vet, and now he is taking a little medicine, and so am I. ;) Our short illnesses made us so much more closer that when I hold him he immediately lays across my chest and under my chin and will just stare up at me with loving eyes... If I don't pet him he will climb down and scoot under my hand so that I will. I recently brought home a new friend, that I also adopted, and they both got along wonderfully from the start. His new best bud's, Beans, picture will be uploaded soon. Spunkers is my beautiful Baby Boy!
White line on his face and is very friendly.He is very soft and is also light brown orangy brown and white and *ICE* *VANILLA* is a he.
Fun Loving Playful
Brown and cream cavies. Not sure of the breed. Extremely cute and playful!
Golden Agouti Abyssinian; Solomon was a very special piggy. Sadly he died yesterday during an exploratory operation after becoming extremely ill very suddenly. Soli loved people and other animals. He was also very fond of young cavy pups. One of his favorite things to do was go out and meet new people. The picture is of him dressed in his Halloween costume. He loved every second of going Trick-Or-Treating with my family as we took my 6 year old nephew around. He loved visiting the elementary school and children's sporting events. He was of course the center of attention everywhere he went. He became famous around our small town and his fans were always excited to see him. He is the star of a short series of children's books that I created for my nephew to help him learn to read. People who read them liked them so well I added them to Soli and his family's website. Everyone who met Soli was deeply touched by his angelic and loving spirit. He made friends around the world through his Yahoo! Group and his death has been a devestating loss to those who loved him, many of whom never even met him personally. I purchased Soli from a pet store and in less than a week, he had full blown scurvy. He was so sick he couldn't stand up. Apparently he had been fed rabbit pellets at the pet store (one of the many reasons piggies and bunnies should not be housed together). For almost 2 weeks I nursed him back to health. The second he would call for help I was there to help him stand or get a drink or eat or clean up his messes. He got a bit spoiled I guess and decided he would no longer eat pellets. A few months later he had all the early symptoms of scurvy again. I caught it early and he recovered quickly. He was fed a regular diet of a variety of fresh veggies. As a result he was always very thin. A month ago, he came down with a URI. He took his medicine like the angel he was and once again was snatched from death's clutches. Yesterday morning he was very ill after having recovered quite well from his URI. I rushed him to the vet. He had xrays taken and a swollen and full bladder was discovered. The vet decided he needed an exploratory surgury to find out for sure what was wrong. Because of his age (suspected at least 4 or 5 yrs) and the fact that he was underweight and already ill, Soli didn't survive the surgery. He is buried under my beloved weeping willow, who will mourn for him forever. I am still so devastated. He was the most wonderful cavy I ever met and many others agree. The world won't be the same without him in it. Always loved, never forgotten.

This is Beezer! I got him in January 2000 to take the place of my first Guinea Pig, Waldo. Beezer turned out to be quite a lover! We recently got him a girlfriend, Rikku, and it added years to his life! Beezer loves to sit and watch TV with me and insanely enough I can keep him out for hours at a time without a potty break! Beezer truly is the most unique Guinea I have ever come across and anyone who meets him would see why!
Short haird, dutch, white and brown/red
This is Papa, he didn't have a name when I got him in April 2004, and didn't receive his name until just a month ago, when his wife, "Momma" (as also named a month ago) gave birth to three adorable little babies. Two girls and a boy. I'm a Photographer so I was thrilled, because now I had more models :) Papa has posed for me several times, each time getting more and more comfortable in front of the camera. This last photoshoot got interupted by an important phone call that I had to take, about 15 minutes later when I got back to Papa and the Harvest set that I was photographing him in, he was still there in the exact same spot waiting for me to finnish with him. (he had taken the hat off, however.)
On August, 17th, 2000 Gerenzie was born. My dad was actually the one to discover it. At about 5:30 AM, he came into my mom’s room (where I was also sleeping) and whispered to my mom, “Lucy had a baby and Bongo (another of our pigs) is gone.” Even though I was half asleep, I still heard it. I was much more concerned about Bongo having escaped than Lucy having a baby. I rushed downstairs into the guinea pigs’ room. My eyes automatically darted to the cage where Lucy and Pippi were. There were actually two cages, connected by a tunnel. Underneath the tunnel, was Bongo, huddled up in his pee and poo. It was actually a very easy thing to spot, because nothing was blocking him from view. But for some reason, my dad just doesn’t notice many things. Then I turned my attention to Lucy’s child. On closer examination, I saw that Lucy had actually had two babies; one dead and one alive. I wasn’t too terribly upset that one of the babies was dead and that there was only one baby for two reasons. The first was that the dead baby was completely black and the live baby was brown and white and very pretty. The second reason was that Lucy (who was quite old at the time) was unhurt. Gerenzie often emits loud squeaks like we are killing her (even though we are not). WE ALL LOVE GERENZIE!!!!!!!
A mouse that is black and white
My piggies Bayou (like the Louisiana Bayou) and Ducky are very entertaining. Even my dog Harold thinks so. They are fast little things and love to play tag. They have a Huge cage that I built them using chloroplast and grids and are very spoiled little girls(as you can see by the photo) They don't like sitting still to take photods very much and the zoom on the camera scares them. In this photo I bribed them to stay still with a carrot and placed a hat on top of their heads. I think they look quite lovely! Bayou is more shy and "the boss" of the two. Ducky (the yellow and white one) is more outgoing and thinks her big sis Bayou is the coolest thing since timothy hay.
sorry I'm entering again- That last picture was hideous! The one on the left is Glee- the other is Melba
What can I say? she's gone through so much. Shall I pretend you're keen to know? I wanted somthing furry to hold and love. First it was mice- they bite. Then it was rats- their tails bother my mom.Then hamsters- nocturnal, and they bite.THEN- ferrets- my dad said they're too stinky.Then,my eyes caught a glimse of guinea pigs.I reasearched them for six whole months, and finally received too three month old cavies.We were going to adopt- but stopped at a store to browse. There were just two. females-and they were aquainted so they wouldn't fight! Aquainted? they were like sisters. One was white, with just a hint of grayish tan on her left side. The other was gingerish cinnamon.It took three days to decide their names.The white one, Melba ,(a breed we never could determine.) and the other, Glee-(she was always happy- and she was the tamest of the two. Sadly, after three months, Melba was taken to the clouds above.A dog- sweet and lonely- found its way into our yard. Instead of ignoring it, I played with it instead of finishing the guinea pig's cleaning of the cage.Until, of couse,the dog found the guinea pig hutch where they stay while I clean the cage.The dog circled the cage, then began to push it.I feared the cage would topple over, and the dog would recieve the poor dears. So I quickly fixed the hut/box in their cage and lifted one end of the cage care fully- not carefully enough, as it turned out. I heard a yelp behind me, and apon turning around, saw the dog hurry off. Melba was gone.I chased after the dog in desperation, my own, faithful, obediant ,never-do-that-sort-of-thing dog, chased it with me. But It was gone too. I screamed and cried hysterically.The neighbors came rushing out to see what had occurred. They searched , but found no dog of my description. Finally, guilt-ridden and tired i returned home, hoping to find the dog witha still alive, but scared Melba. I found no such thing. A neighbor came to our house, saying he had found the dog in his yard with something in its mouth. You can surely guess what. The neighbor retreived her in a garbage bag.we buried her that night. I picked up Glee, petting her and telling her that I hadn't meant to- that it was okay.But it wasn't. For days Glee looked for Melba, And for days, I could be found, picking off the Melba -hairs off my jacket and into a plastic bag. If I felt too lonely, I would hold the bag-stupid I know, but...any way, After wards, Glee was very lonely.She chittered less, and chirped almost never now.That's where my teacher came in.She saw a picture of my guinea pigs, and I found out her daughter lost a cavy by the almost same way ; dog.her daughter rarely picked up the poor remaining cavy , so they agreed to allow me to keep her- they both wouldn't be as lonely as before.Then, they fought, and we thought it would never end.It took a while, but now they get along pretty well- but there are times when they quarrel in a harmless manner.back to the point , they got along and every thing was fine- until we went to France- about a week after we got back , Glee Became sick . She started having intestinal spasms an dunrinal bleeding. After this occuring for two days, we noticed she had stopped eating. Apon checking her, we found a dry 'bean' stuck where it oughtn't to be.Well- we took her to the vet early the next day, and in the waiting room, i really thought she was going to die. I had thought she was too sick to lick my finger, but she did it, anyway. I thought it was the last 'kiss' of her life.Gosh, we saw the doctor, they did x-rays, and found she had bladder stones, which had caused a build up and constipation. 14 days of medicine did the trick ,I breathed once more.I think the newer guinea pig received by my teacher, Cocoa did too.Well, Now she's still safe, (and licking.I've actually trained her to lick when I say ,"Can I have a kissie?Can-Thank you!") stupid, I kow, but she does do it, so its incredibly cute. I hope I haven't bored you to death. I've read most of the cavies posted here, And Glee hasn't been through as Goobber has, but she's still has been. I really hope it's enough to get her a cavy of the month. If not- I don't know what else is... But thanks for your time. Hey! E-mail me ! I love to chat about Guinea pigs!i know it's annoying when someone sends more than one , but I might- because this picture makes me look fat- and I'm not-(I hope). i have one of Glee and Melba and one of Glee and Cocoa.

Eddie is the younger of the two cousins. (by cousins i mean his rabbit cousin) Wherever the rabbit goes eddie is sure to follow he hates being seperated and looks for kipper (rabbit) for protection. He's a little fattie and whenever we feed him apples he grabs the apple and runs to his igloo so noone can steal the apple slice away from him.
Long hair neutered male
I was walking in town one day and the pet store caught my eye. i stepped inside just to have a look around. I looked over at the guinea pig cage and saw the prettiest long-haired piggy! Later that day I begged and begged my mom to get my my own little pet like a hamster or guinea pig. She told me that it was not the right time to bring a new pet into the house. I was very disappointed, but I never gave up. I continued to beg my mom for a little pet, and she considered it for awhile. So I was getting desperate for a little buddy when my 10th birthday came around. One night we were watching the news when an exclusive story came on. It just so happened to be about guinea pigs that were abandoned on the side of the road. Of course these piggies needed a home, and I was destined to own one. So my mom and I went to check it out. I spotted the most adorable pig in a cage with like ten others. The shelter told us that it was a female but claimed that she was not pregnant....boy were they wrong! I took my little pig home and a few weeks later she had six babies! My mom noticed that one of the babies came out prematured. Six babies was hard work, but Saidey managed to take care of all of them. later I had to depart with the little pigs when they were old enough. I was upset about giving them away. All of the pigs were taken until I had just my little premy left. It seemed that no one wanted her. I begged my mom to keep one of the babies, so I kept her and gave her lots of love. My piggies saidey and "Premy" as she came to be known as lived happy lives indoor. But one day Saidey fell sick. I hugged her and tooked care of her, but eventually she had to go. Premy is my pride and joy, and I try to comfort her so that she does not miss her mother too much, and I will continue to love her forever.

The Strawbery blond cavy on the right has brightend up her friend flossy's life on the left. Who was giving up on life after all her friends died. I was determind i wasn't going to get another Cavy as i had lost four within a week some that i had for years it was too much heart break. I felt sorry for Flossy it was like she didn't want to live she stopped eating and didn't show any interest in anything. I seen Toffee and could not resist her. Flossy got her sparkle back as soon as she seen Toffee. Toffee now runs around daft trying to jump off my couch ( which i have really got to watch). She loves to run on my shoulder, where she tend to try to give me a hair cut. She is such a sweet beautifull Cavy and has saved Flossy's life. I love her dearly and am so proud of her.

Ginger abyssinian cross. Born 12th September 1997, died 13th December 2003. He was the naughtiest and most lovable guinea anyone could have the pleasure of spending time with. I knew him his whole life as I first held him when he was only a week old, as he belonged to my friend. He charmed everyone he met, and everyone cried the night he died. His best friend Lammie misses him too. He had many adventures and enjoyed life up until the day he died. He was always off on adventures as soon as I opened the hutch door. He would waddle out, a little thinner and wobblier in his old age but no less handsome, and have a good explore. It was very hard to put him back in the hutch and that is saying something for a guineapig! I loved him very much, and though I love all my pigs, he was somehow special. I can still see him now, wandering through the tall grass in his run, coming to investigate everyone who walked past, like a little lion, as he was often called. He was the most gentle and loving pig, and though not your average pedigree piggie, he was a hundred of times better! He had so much character, and never stopped surprising me. I'm sorry I didn't have more time with him, but am so grateful to have had him. He taught me more about pigs than any book could ever do. It is strange without him now, chewing at the wire on his door to come and play, and the shed is too quiet. Nothing could ever replace him, but I am hoping that I will find a pig like him again, though I doubt it.....he was one in a million.
Joyce (Ginger & White) & Michelle (Brown & White), are two lovely guinea-pigs with unique personallities. Joyce is very placid, whilst Michelle is a lunatic and doesn't really like people it seems! Their favourite hobbies include eating, sleeping and urinating at inappropriate times. Their favourite treat is grass fresh from the garden, and they can be heard singing with excitement when they hear the keys to the back-door! Lving in London these two sophisticated chicks, really make the most of city life!

Felix is a long-haired mix breed. He is 3 1/2 years old and still as healthy as...well...a pig! He lives in a cage near the kitchen, which he really enjoys. He squeaks whenever the fridge door opens and squeaks especially loud whenever I bring out any of his favourite treats, brocolli, watermelon, orange, grapes, etc. Felix is also a very sociable animal. He'll settle down to eat whenever the family is eating, and he thinks the cat is his friend - he doesn't quite understand why he's not allowed to play with her! Felix is also an indoor G.P. This is for his safety and health, since we live near a wooded area which has a lot of hawks, and domestic cats running around. The neighbours also like to spray their lawns with chemicals so our lawn isn't much good to eat or play on. But Felix has lots of fun indoors, running around the family room or in his "pig pen." Felix is my 11th G.P. I've been keeping them since I was 10, and I'm now in my late 20s - I just can't seem to give them up!!
Long-haired mix-breed. Felix was born in July, 2000 - he' 3 1/2 years old. Favourite foods: watermelon, brocolli.
Cavy from Germany
Patch is a tortoiseshell and white adorable piggy ....she is nearly 2 years old and her fave hobbies are eating and sleeping:) she loves to squeak when she hears the fridge door open for her tasty treats.....Though she can be timid she is certainly not shy about getting her voice across....last year when my mum took her to the vet for a regular check up..she squealed the place down like a pig that the whole surgery could hear her lol...apparently the receptionist had to keep a straight face hehe...Patch is the first guinea pig i have owned and i believe once you own a piggy they melt your heart....

Orville is a cream colored Skinny gene carrier. He has a brother, Wilbur, who is a self red Skinny. They live together in a cage next to JoJo a Dutch texel. They both love her and the courting is never ending. Orville was born on October 30, 2003. He is a bit shy yet but as loveable as can be. He hope one day that he and his brother Wilbur can fly a plane!
He's 1 year old, can climb the stairs, has his own site and has been submitted into so much competitions that he's won! He's absolutely gorgeous! He's furry all over and so cute. Also, I took him outside alot for training, and he's absolutely really fast!
The white and Brown is mouse the other is shovel, named by my 2 yr old nephew

Wilbur is a two month old self red skinny guinea pig. He lives with his brother Orville, who is a cream short hair that is a skinny gene carrier. They both love when a large pile of hay is placed in their cage. They run under and through the hay eating their way out. Wilbur loves to be next to Orville. Maybe Orville's fur helps keep them both warm. Wilbur loves to sleep in his tent and announces to all the rest of our 13 piggies whenever the refrigerator door opens! Although he is our only skinny he just blends in with all of his adopted brothers and sisters.
Odin is a very good, lovable pig. He is very quiet and well tempered. He is about 7-8 months old and loves to give his momma and daddy kisses on the hand. He also loves to look at and watch his niece and nephews while mom is supervising of course.
This "little" TS&W furball came to me two years ago at a really rough time in my life. It had been two years since I had my last guinea pig, and my Dad thought another one might bring some cheer into my life. He was right. While timid at first, Scout began to realize that I wasn't just some weirdo who wanted to hold her all the time. I was the source of the dandelions. You see, Scout can attribute some of her..uh, "roundness" to the fact that she is totally addicted to these greens. If it was up to her, Scout would totally forgo the hay and pellets and plunge into a mound of dandelions. Of course, that's not all she's about. Well, most;y, but she does give me kisses and likes to cuddle in my neck now. I'm not sure if she does this in order to receive more of the green goods. But, hey, I can take what I can get. I could go on and on about what a cute ball of fur Scout is...right after I get her some more dandelions, though!! I'm coming Scout!

Peruvian Silkie
Peruvian Silkie
Midnight is our 6 month old Crested Guaragouti.He can be described as lovable,considering I've never met anyone who doesn't fall in love with him the minute they set eyes on him.He likes to act like he's the one in charge.Even my grandparent's dog whined when we put him back in his cage.
Snowball is one of our newest rescue babies. She and her sister were born in July 2003. They are a joy to have in our family of 13. She is a very active cavy and both Snowball and her sister, Rocky, keep Oreo on the go. Oreo needed some exercise and she gets it with the 2 new babies. We think Snowball is in training to be Oreo's assistant!
Lyle was my first piggy ever. i got him free from a piggy rescue. from the very first moment i held that silky ball of hair in my arms, i knew he was mine! i simply fell in love. although i loved all my piggies, Lyle was my secret favorite. Even though he was the only boy in my little herd, i still called him my little princess - he was just THAT pretty! He passed away this summer, and i still miss him every day. The little pig that started it all...
Danny is a silver agouti Rex, I escued him from a young girl who was suffering with depression and sadley, found no time to look after him. He has won a few places at my local cavy show and is now living with three of his beautifull sons! He is now 3 years old and enjoying a comfortable life with his playfull sons.
He is a white/cream mix American Satin. He loves squeaking for food... especially carrots. He lost his best buddy, Abbi, in January 2003. They had a lot of fun together and I wanted to nominate him after all he's been through.
We adopted Einstein from the Critter Corral Guinea Pig Rescue. He was one of many confiscated from a carnival where they were giving them as prizes! His name when we got him was Snowcone but we wanted to erse all of his bad past and well he has a nose, hair and face of Albert Einstein.
Skylar is almost 2 years old. We bought here from Petco for 25 dollars. My wife and I were getting fish food when I walked to to look at the pigs and I saw her. I put my nose to the glass and she did the same to me. It was then I knew she was coming home right away. She is spoiled as they come. May be more. She is considered a daughter by my wife and I, and my parents consider her a grand-daughter. She loves salad and being on the bed. But mostly she enjoys being in her igloo.
Odin is the sweetest pig I think I have. He is very acctive and loves to run around and make a huge mess throwing his pine chips on the floor. He loves to give momma kisses and love to cuddle up with his daddy.
She is a Tri-colored pig that I got from friends of mine that moved away. She is very sweet and very gental. Holding her is always one of my favorite things to do. She loves to give her mommy kisses. She also love her veggies and is very danty while eating them.
For my birthday three years ago, my friend wanted to get me a really great gift. She had seen Oreo at our local SPCA and he had been sitting there for a few weeks with no friends. So, Oreo came to live with me and my late pig, Marbles. He had hair mats and was pretty depressed when I got him, but after letting him and Marbles get acquainted, he blossomed into a wonderful gentleman. He is six years old now, and has only ripened with age. He has his share of problems, one of them being his heritage. I'd like to say that he is a purebred Peruvian, but he lacks a few of the characteristics. My teacher, who has some piggies, has commented that he looks like a cross between Peruvian and Abbysinian. Either way, he is a very caring friend. I adopted a young piggie from the SPCA, and Oreo is like his older brother. He has taught me much about love and acceptance, and individuality. If you met him, you would agree. I was tempted to buy him a little bow tie and take him to my Senior prom as my date!
this is Audrey, one of the best mum piggies! realllly gentle with her bubs. Reaally silly pig, and has the best " begging" face.. which you cant pass.
Silver and Brown Rescued Sweetheart. He is a very loving, attention seeking gentleman. He is approximately 8 months old.
Snowball is a loveable little girl who knows how to win hearts. She loves to give piggie kisses and cuddle right up to your chin. If you pick her put watch out or she will get you under her spell.
Harriet is a spoiled little girl who knows how to get the proper attention. She loves to go for rides and visit people. She like to cuddle and be held my her cavy slaves at least 4 times a day. SHe is the queen of the castle you could say.
Stormy is at least part peruvian. He looks like a different cavy on each side - black face on the left and tiger striped on the right. I bought him for $3 at an exotic animal auction where I had gone to sell chickens. He was a skinny little thing in an icecream bucket. I've learned everything I know about cavies from Stormy (and CG!). He is an individual with his own moods, likes and dislikes. He has taught me to be a slave in an amazingly short period of time. A couch potato and cuddler, Stormy is the perfect buddy for me.
Stubborn little man, but cute as can be! He's Black with white eyebrows and little brown markings here and there. He loves to eat, squeeks when he hears the fridge open. He thinks everything is for him.
Kermie is a boar, he's very pretty browns and white in color, he tends to hide alot, still getting used to us, but a friendly little guy!
Piggy is a sow, white with brown around her eyes, very friendly, and loves attention!
Cleo is a friend to all even though she is very small.
6 month old himalayen sow that i bought from a breeder. she is very bossy but love to have cuddles.
Female, 2 1/2 months old peruvian that I bought from a pet store because the store employee wanted to breed her. A very skittish piggie but she is beginning to warm up to her new home.
Squeakers is a shelter piggie I adopted a few months back. I had seen her on the local Humane Society’s website for months and it seemed nobody wanted her. I already had two other guinea pigs at home and wasn’t sure I had room for a third. Then unexpectedly, I lost my female, Lucile- most likely to old age (she was six). Although I was grieving over her loss, my boyfriend encouraged me to at least visit the shelter to see Squeakers. After much debate, I finally went and of course fell in love. Squeakers is a very shy, timid girl, but every day she becomes a little more social. She loves to snuggle in her “pig towel” and is a huge lettuce fan. So much so, that she comes running out of her hiding spot, bouncing and squeaking, leaving the shy little shelter piggie behind.
beautiful buzz nuggles up to u when you get him out of his cage. when you place him on your lap.. he jumps up to give you a hug. i love him so much.
Speedy and Roady are rare tortoise shell guinea pigs and speedy is the very tiny cavy on the left and roady is the other cavy. Roady is possibly pregnant from Speedy, and Lisa (roady's onwer) and I can't wait until she has the babies.

Bumper is a very special pig. He was "born" to Buck, my first pig, that went to the Rainbow Bridge in March of 2003, and Thumper, Albinocavies pig that went to the Rainbow Bridge in February of 2003. We knew that they decided to go together, and knew we would find their babies someday. Bumper is black, brown, and white. He looks alot like his daddy, with a bit of the white, (and his nose) from his mommy. He also has "Grama AC's" personality...sweet, lovable, and a little pistol! His favorite pastime is popcorning, running around his cage, and being lazy. His favorite veggies are Green leaf and romaine lettuce, celery, and he loves Watermelon too! Bumper was born around May 9th, and that has been his "designated" birthday. He's a very well loved pig, and his brothers Bob and Bailey have taken to him well!

Rusty is my Red aby boy who sadly passed away a year ago now. He was such a LADY (SOW) charmer. We found him in our garden. He been let loose. He had gotten himself burried under some snow.

Sunny is a singer. She likes to 'sing' when she hears us coming near her cage. She's also a snuggler that will get all comfy near our necks, then procede to pull on our clothes. She does the most un-graceful popcorning that I have ever seen, and has even done a flip! Her favorite toy is a paper bag which she will roll over in.
Golden Agouti, Red and White Broken American
Obie is my only piggy. He seems like an independent pig. He's over a year old and loves to eat. After his buddy Nokturnal died, he adjusted well and showed his Mommy he is going to be okay. A very strong piggy and doesn't give his Mommy any problems. =)
Buddy is a lucky pig also! with his new CnC cage, hay, and guinea pig pellets and veggies, he is one HAPPY pigger! as you can see, he love his dump truck! he is golden agouti, with two rossettes! he came to live with me on may 15th 03
These two piggies are new and only about 6 weeks old. When I first got them, they were sooo terrified of their new place and neither of them would let me pick them up. I had such a hard time with them and they are still adjusting! Hallie and Annie let me pick them up now but I think they still get a bit scared. They love parsley and whenever I come in the room for feeding time, they smell the parsley right away and they start sniffing in the air to see where the smell is coming from. Whenever I put in a new pile of hay, Annie barrels at it and digs a hole in it which is really cute! I love my new piggies VERY much!
3rd try's a charm! =)
Another try at attaching her picture!
Rio is a very lucky pig. She was almost put down in a California shelter for being a 'lethal white' when I heard about her. She's been living with me since July of 2002, and is thriving with just a minimal amount of 'extra' care. She LOVES peaches and grapes. Since she is blind, she has her very own 'seeing eye pig' that lives with her and helps her find her way around the cage.
Bumper is a very special pig. He was "born" to Buck, my first pig, that went to the Rainbow Bridge in March of 2003, and Thumper, Albinocavies pig that went to the Rainbow Bridge in February of 2003. We knew that they decided to go together, and knew we would find their babies someday. Bumper is black, brown, and white. He looks alot like his daddy, with a bit of the white, (and his nose) from his mommy. He also has "Grama AC's" personality...sweet, lovable, and a little pistol! His favorite pastime is popcorning, running around his cage, and being lazy. His favorite veggies are Green leaf and romaine lettuce, celery, and he loves Watermelon too! Bumper was born around May 9th, and that has been his "designated" birthday. He's a very well loved pig, and his brothers Bob and Bailey have taken to him well!
Madame is an American Broken Red-Eyed Orange, Lilac, and White (or rainbow cavy). She is a Grand Champion Sow and has won MANY awards. Patv has allowed my son to adopt Madame when she was 3 years old. Madame is quite "large" and is now retired from the show ring. She is a very loving and patient sow and enjoys tending to little babies!
Ashleigh is an American PEW (Pink Eyed White). I purchased her from a local Petco. She weighed less 300 grams and had just been placed in an aquarium with a VERY large boar. Ashleigh has issues and doesn't like being held by anybody other than a close family member...unless her "mommy" is standing close by. When she stresses, she breaks out in mites. I have learned that treating her proactively for mites is the best way!
Miss Fudge is an American Satin Dilute Agouti. She was born to Ashleigh on September 10, 2001...just 1 day before the grandeur of the WTC ended. Her brother is Shadow and her sister is Vanilla. She is feisty and strong willed...but absolutely beautiful.
Daisy is a nine month old tri-coloured cavy.She has a sweet disposition and is very friendly. She loves to be scratched under her chin.
Chloe is aprox. 5 months old, I got from the Hspca. She was only a baby herself when we brought her home and surprise surprise I come home from vacation and there is TWO little bubs running around in the cage. Chloe is a very good Mom and she is one of my Most Affectionate Pigs. She loves to give kisses and she LOVES to cuddle for hours right under your chin.Her babies names are Hubble and Bernie, both boys!! Hubble is now over a month old. He is a definite LAP pig. He loves to lay in the crook of my legs and loves his CHIN rubbed.
Yoshi is a 14 month old white Abyssinian boar with a chocolate face. His name means Happiness in Japanese and it fits him very well. He squeals when we call his name and when someone opens the vegetable bin in the refrigerator. Yoshi's favorite foods are romaine lettuce, carrot nibbles, grapes, watermelon, and of course parsley. Aside from 4 humans, Yoshi shares our house with a parakeet and 2 hamsters. He doesn't have too much to do with the hamsters, but has bonded with Tweety the parakeet. Yoshi and Tweety are known to share a sprig of parsley once a day. Tweety also flys over to Yoshi's cage at lease 3 times a day and sings to him. Yoshi's favorite time of day is the evening. Everyday around 6PM he starts popcorning in his cage because he knows he will come out in his playpen in the living room soon. When he first goes in his playpen Yoshi waits for his salad. Then for the next 4 hours he runs around and plays with his toys and tubes. He loves to run through, hide in, and chew his tubes. When we make special mazes with the tubes, Yoshi slowly goes through and when he makes it through he popcorns to tell us how excited he is he did it. We love Yoshi very, very much!!!
Lavender is the most gentle and kind piggie I have ever known. She always steps in to stop my other two from rowing, even if she ends up in the firing line herself! After about 8 weeks of me having her I discovered that she was heavily pregnant, and I was of course a little worried as she was only very young still herself. But I needn't worry, on the 10th of July this year (2003) she gave birth to the most beautiful little boy there ever was. I have since called him Patch. She is the most attentative mother, and genuinely adores here little boy, and always puts the others before herself, except when there is cucumber about!!!

tallulah is my 5 mo old piggie, she loves to cuddle up under my chin and fall to sleep. i got her because someone dumped her and her 4 siblings on my doorstep. she is a red and white abyssinian x sow. when we found tallulah she was quite poorly and had an abcess on her cheek which had to be lanced by the vet and then i had to clean the wound which she hated but she has come through it all and is now a very happy little girl who i love to pieces
Patches is my 16 mo. old baby doll. She's so very soft and loves everyone! She does not understand the concept of sitting still, she loves to exercise! Patches is a solid 2 and a half pounds and will wheek for the crumpling of any plastic bag. She's the sweetest, softest, and happiest pig!
Phoeby is a very adorable 9 month old guinea pig, she was named after "Phobie" from the t.v show "Friends" because in the show "Phobie" sings a song about guinea pigs. She has dark brown hair and golden orange streaks. She is very lovable! she loves to be cuddled and cared for, she even gives me kisses! Her favorite food is dandilion leaves. She never ever bites anyone. When ever I come back from somewhere she always greets me with a loud squeak, and then I hold her. She knows that it is me because she knows my smell.I got phoeby from a friend of mine and when I saw her I knew she was the one!!! She loved being cuddled up next to her mother. phoeby is the best guinea pig anyone could ever have!!!!!
Jemima is a small black, brown and ginger sow. She's had two baby boys, and they still live with her, and their father Mortimer. She gave birth to four babies but two of them were stillborn. She is shy, sweet and loving. She takes care of the others and likes lazing around in the sun. She's had to look after her "husband" Mortimer a lot recently as he had a URI, but he's a lot happier now. Jemima was named after Jemima Puddle-duck because she squeaked like a little duckling. She was our first ever guinea pig and we now have five.
Riley is a tri-colored Silkie beautiful male! I got him from cavy barn with so many guinea pigs he did not get the attention he needed. When I got there he was in a box with at least five other males. Riley was under all of them, so I shooed the ones on top of him away. I felt so sorry for him when I saw what all the guinea pigs did to him. You could see his bones, he was bit on both ears and was bleeding.He was the smallest one there, the runt . I made my decision, I was going to take him. I wrapped him up in a towel and carried him out to the car.He soon responded with squeaks of delight to lettuce and and other veggies. I don't have any regrets on taking this wonderful pig. Riley turned out to be a healthy one year old boy and the only pig I currently serve. I wouldn't trade anything in the world for him!
Chocolate brown, with caramel whiffs. The most handsome boy!

He was a huge pig at 3.5 lbs before he had problem with his teeth. He lost so much weight from not eating. The vet trimmed his back molars and with 3 weeks of chopping all his vegies and syringe feedings, he is beginning to look like his old self and eats everything in sight. We are so lucky we have him. He seems to know he was sick and has recovered - he is very socialble now.
she is a black and white guinea pig with a little strip of brown on her head and a patch on her butt, she is a joy to have and she is just so precious

**(this is an oops because i didn't enter a proper desc. the first time)** Scruff is a real survivor! She was "returned" to the petstore where she was purchased, half starved, matted, and with curly nails. The store policy was not to accept returns, but the man who brought her in told the poor girl that Scruff would be let "free" in a field if she didn't take her. So, the store girl took her, placed her in a cardboard box, and hid her in a back room until the end of her shift. Luckily for Scruffy, I came along to the store that day for food, and the girl way-laid me. Scruff's cute little face was all I needed, and I tucked her into my coat and brought her home. She's now fat, happy and beautiful (although she recently fought off a nasty URI, she didn't even lose an ounce). She is my little sweetheart lap pig.

Sammy made his dramatic entrance on March 6th at 915am. He is a true survivor! He is the only baby of three that survived. Annalee (a survivor and fighter herself) had a very hard time dilivering her brood. The two who did not make it were just too big (over 5 ounces each). After delivery Annalee started to bleed a lot. I called the vet and brought her in. (she was almost lifeless) I didn't think she would make it but she fought very hard. She had retained two of the placentas, tore really bad, and almost bled to death! The baby (Sammy) tried to nurse but Annalee was just too weak and could not take care of her baby. I fed him for his first 24 hours and by the next day Annalee (who was still very sick)had just enough strength to take over and feed her baby. As you can see this is a story of not just survival, but the strength to keep going even when there seems to be little hope. Since Easter is a celabration of survival,I thought this would be the perfect month to show off my Survivors! Thank you!!! LISA
Momma is a rosette, Piglet is smooth haired Piglet is momma's baby momma is around three years old and piglet around two I adopted them from a friend last July and I love them so much they are very sweet and loving!
Bim is a 2 and 1/2 year old boar. He is cage mate to my other boar, Jasper and has mated with my pregnant 6 month old sow, Piper. Bim loves attention and softly squks when you pet him. All of my piggies are like squeky toys becuse when you pet them they squek and when you aren't they hardly ever do. I care for Bim very much and we have created a strong bond together. I can't wait to see his babies.
Patches and Peanut just celebrated their one year old birthday March 1st. If there are not screaming (literally) for attention, peeing on my bed, throwing their food bowl and litterbox around for fun, then they goto the vet! If there quiet and not reeking havoc, someone's not feeling good.They never learned the conecept of being quiet!! They are extremely mischevious and love to show off in front of people. They are the fuzziest fur babies ever! Peanuts is ususally a little lazy while Patches finds great pleasure in constantly bugging her. They biccer now and then but when no one's looking, there sleeping side by side. The picture I am sending in is funny because Patches is behind Peanut sniffing the air and Peanut has this funny look on her face like "it wasn't me!" There partners in crime those two, I love them to death!
Bonnie is a nearly two-year old Dutch American that I met while browsing in a pet store one day. I knew nothing at all about guinea pigs but was intrigued by her beauty, so I picked her up and held her for a long time. She was extremely gentle, quiet, and sweet. I knew I could not leave the petstore without her. After a lengthy (and heated) discussion with my husband, I convinced him that we needed guinea pigs for our children. I took her home along with a boar named we named Clyde (now neutered). After a few days in our home, I noticed that Bonnie's breathing had a clicking sound to it and knew this couldn't be normal. A trip to the vet confirmed the worst--she had pneumonia! The vet gave him an antibiotic and little hope that she'd make it. At home, I faithfully gave her the medicine and carefully fed her. She pulled through with flying colors! Then, a few weeks later, I walked into the room where her cage was and was horrified to find a large, bloody scab by her eye. I had no idea what this was, but knew that another trip to the vet was in order. He diagnosed her with mites and treated her and Clyde with a series of Ivermectin shots. Bonnie has given birth to one litter of pups, two beautiful sows. She and Clyde now live together happily (and fixed). Bonnie LOVES to eat and loves to lie about never getting fed! She enjoys being held, is very sweet and sedate and she loves to have her ears rubbed. No one could ask for a nicer guinea pig in the world--or a prettier one!

LP's babies, born 2-21-03, they are in the St Patrick's day spirit
This is Coconut. She is an abby american mix, and she's very cute. She has black on her rump, and peach around her eyes. Whe say she put on mascara and then cried because she's got thes little black marks below her eyes. The reason Coconut's so speicial to me is becaus we got her as an adult. We got her at about eight months, and she was probably in the back of the pet store for about three months. We know she had been in the pet store all that time was because they knew her birthday. Even though she lived in the pet store all her life until last April, she couldn't have been in better hands. The pet store we got her from takes very good care of their pets. But even a good pet store can't give all their attention to one rejected little cavy. Coconut is not an ugly guinea pig, and Rienemans (where we got her) is not a bad pet store. Nonetheless no one wanted poor Coconut. If it were not for me last April, Coconut would never had found a good home. Now she lives in a ten-square-foot cage, gets fresh food twice a day, and is freqently handled.
Bosley is a tri coloured aby. He is about 7 months old. His favourte foods are carrots with the tops(if they dont have tops forget it.), cucumber, apples, cilantro, tomatos, parsley, timothy hay, alfalfa cubes, and of course his pellets. You may be thinking "God how much does this pig weigh?" well he weighs about 4 pounds, hey hes healthy. Bosley is so very odd he likes his bath!!(I dont blame him lol.) Every day as soon as I get home from school he has the run of the house untill supper time, he is fully litter trianed. Some of his favourite activites include the run of house, surfing the net with me, cuddling with me, go outside on warm summer days, bathing, and well eating. Bosley cannot stand my mom, well he absolutely hates my mom. When ever my mom holds Bosley he pees on her, I don't know why lol. Bosley is a very talkitive pig he just wont shut up when I hold he he grugles away and gives me little "kisses" on my cheeks and fingers. Bosley has a 10square foot cage, i made it out of the cubes and coroplast. All of my friends think he is spoiled rotten but I don't think so, I'm always buying him more toys and a treat of some kind but hey hes like my kid. If I could give him all of the carrots with tops in the world I would.
Lamsey is quite the little ham. He must have been a model in a past life as he loves to pose for pictures. He also has to be the center of attention. The minute anyone walks in the front door (srtangers included) his fuzzy little head and big brown eyes instantly appear over the edge of his house. This of couse is followed by happy squeeking and cooing. People can't believe how social he is! He won't let anyone walk by without at least a hello or a rub on the nose. Lamsey prides himself on making everyone a guinea pig lover. I get a lot of strange looks from people when I tell them I have guinea pigs, but when they meet Lamsey they understand why.
You could say she's not an ordinary pigglet, I've been able to teach her the English language! Yes, it's possible if their still babies. How I found out. First of all, I talk to Chi Chi in a certain voice, it's hard to explain, but if you look at a guinea pig, the way their lips are kinda together, you can picture the way they would sound if they talk. Plus of their small size. Chi is a multi-colored mixed guinea pig. Her favorite food is Celery and Oranges.....and Reeses peanut butter cups. (of course I don't feed them to her, she would love to get her little paws on one) Her foavorite music, Enya(she loves Enya), classical,any of The Lord of the Rings' soundtracks, and others. Her favorite book, How to Get Whatever You Want. (of course that's made up). Let me tell you how i know she can speak english. One day, this was around Christmas, she was always chewing on this wreath, I have on her cage, and she would always be rippng at it. Well, I couldn't take it anymore, I saw her coming a hair to biting at it, and said: "Chi Chi(in that voice I use) now you better not rip at that thing." You wouldn't believe it! She walked right away. There's othere stories, but no time. Oh yeah, she's in her terrible 2's right now, and it's terrible!!!!
This is Lucy...She is 5 and loves carrots and romaine lettuce. She is currently living with Zoe and does not care for it too much. She loves to be held and cuddled! She is the most beautiful pig in the world...IMO...
Zoe is one beautiful black pig! She is about 1 year old and is currently living with Lucy, Zoe tries her hardest to be best friends with her...with no luck. She will eat anything that comes her way! She is my lucky pig...for when I bought her, she was very ill. The Vet did not think she would make it! Well guess what? She did!!!

Charlie is my big boo-boo boy! He's a saffron short hair, weighing in at a hefty 3lb and 9ozs at just over a year old. He's the most boisterous of my pigs, very noisy and unbelievably silly. He likes to live alone but be housed close to his ex-friend's house, Pickle. It's the only time they get on and he likes it that way! He loves kisses, being kooched all over his hair and he's definately his mummy's boy - very 'typically' blonde too! But i love him, he's our big boy!
American Satin Pink Eyed White (PEW): Jasmine is a precious little lady that I rescued from a kill shelter on 06-20-2002. She was scheduled to be euthanized and was virtually a skeleton with fur. Jasmine quickly learned that food is REALLY good and has become such a little doll. She enjoys giving kisses and is quite happy to cuddle with anybody for hours. I love her so much.
Maizie is a chocolate female. She is just the sweetest girl ever, as whenever we take her out of her cage she sits on our chests and licks our chins. She is very active and loves to run around. She squeaks for treats all the time and even gets on her hind legs to get at them! She is almost 3 years old and had a litter of 5 adorable babies 2 years ago! She was a great mommy, taking the time to allow all her babies to get milk and was fiercely protective of them if we tried to give them hugs and kisses. She is such a good mommy that whenver she is out of her cage, her daughter Rosco follows her around everywhere! Maizie is super soft and just adorable. We love our mommy girl!

Ginger has very long hair....and like most girls has her "bad hair days". She was given to me last Christmas by my 2 little nephews who picked her out especially for me:) Ginger had a rough few months in the beginning, she only has one ear, I guess her mommy ate it at birth, so the vet told me..but she is still very beautiful. After bringing Ginger home from the pet store, I had the "most wonderful" experience of noticing LICE!! Poor Ginger scratching and jumping around like a nut. I called around to different vets and was told it would be okay to give her a lice treatment shampoo.. so as instructed by the vet i treated Ginger 3 times within 2 weeks when suddenly I noticed Ginger wasn't feeling very well:( Diarrhea, loss of appetite and very lethargic... I was so upset and sad for her. The next morning I brought her to the vet and started her on a special critical care diet...feeding poor little Ginger through a 5cc syringe 5 times a day and giving her special medicine. Thankfully after 3 days Ginger started getting back to her good health, and has been doing great since..I highly recommend never giving small animals any kind of toxins..even following instructions properly can still harm our little creatures. Ginger is such a joy to have around she is the cutest little thing... runs around like a little ball of hair..(she's my little cousin IT)
Maddie is a red-white broken Abysinnian. She was adopted from Cavy Spirit Guinea Pig Rescue to be a cagemate to one of my neutered boars, Max. Maddie is a snuggle pig. She loves to curl up under my chin and then sprawl out. Maddie also stands up on her back feet to wheek for her veggies. She has a lot of personality and she is a very sweet pig.
Why-oh-why does my mommy do these things to me?? Max is a tri-Roan Abysinnian
Molly is a DEW (dark-eyed white) American sow and Milo is a neutered American boar with a red eye patch and a black stripe across his back. They were my Christmas present last year from my husband and kids. They surprised me Christmas morning with a huge bag of CareFresh and a stuffed guinea pig in a box the kids had decorated with drawings of guinea pigs. A few days later (on Dec. 29th) we adopted Molly & Milo from a local animal shelter.

Bosley has a 4 square foot cage, I think its to small so **SOON** I'm going to make him a 10.5 square foot cage out of the creative cubes and tenoplast. All of my friends think he is spoiled rotten but I don't think so I'm always buying him more toys and a treat of some kind. If I could give him all of the carrots with tops in the world I would.
Annalee was adopted on July 3rd 2001. She is about seven mounths old and was pregnant when I got her. She now has two adorable childern named Aaron and Abby. She loves to spend most of her time at the food bin eating anything from carrots to lettice, apples to cantalope. Her hobies are eating, being held, jumping around and sleeping afterwards, oh ya, did I say eating? That is a big one!! Annalee is tri-colored, black, white and orange (as are her babies)and she says she would be honored to be the cavie of the month!! Thank you for considering Annalee!
Pumpkin is a pretty red American Cavy. I got her from a small pet shop. She was sitting in a tiny tub with a bunch of boars. Despite the chance she might be pregnant, I brought her home anyways. She sat by herself in a small cage until Nikki and the C&C cage came along. She has a very high purr and purrs whenever you touch her. When she is very content she flattens out like a pancake. She likes to be very close to you when being held. Her favorite veggie is Carrots. She always runs out to greet me when it's veggie time and almost wheeks her head off! She popcorns all the time. All in all, she is a hyper, happy, joyful little piggie. She is very special to me.
Hello. My cavy, Nikki is one of the most unique cavies I've ever seen. She is many beautiful colors, and is part Abyssinian, part Silky. When I went to the rescue I went to look at two six-week-old sows, Tiffany and Crystal. I saw her sitting in that tiny cage and asked to hold her. I knew she was the right one as soon as she got into my arms. As I drove home with her I would reach into her box and stroke her. Then I realized that she doesn't purr often, but when she does she has a long, low, almost non-stopping purr. She likes to get very close to you when you hold her, so every lap time is an experience. Her favorite veggie is Parsley. It makes me feel very happy to know I've saved her from a rescue and made room for more piggies. She is more than special.
Hector is a sweet guinea pig. He is orange and black. He loves to eat carrots and will squeek away if he thinks you are coming with his treat. Last winter he started itching a lot and losing his hair. We took him to the vet and discovered that he was allergic to the cedar shavings and have since learned that they are not good for small pets. We now use recycled paper and it works good. I love my pig pig very much, he is a sweetie!
Indrah is a TSW female Abby. It was love at first site. i saw her in a pet shop and I just couldn't resist her beautiful color. Even though they had another guinea pig that I also liked a lot , I just could not put down Indrah. I love her personality too, she is a little devil and will
