Guinea Pigs

 So I have really been missing my fancy rats.  But they just didn't live long enough, only having a life expectancy of around 2-3 years...but they were adorable.

I have been missing having a little fury fur ball to love on and watch....

I have never had guinea pigs.  I did not know what to expect, only that they are so cute and have the funniest antics, like the "popcorn" thingy!  

So I woke up one morning and decided I wanted a guinea pig.  I went out and bought one, only intending on having one, but as I read about them, they really need a mate, a playmate.  So I went back and adopted another.  Now I have two 2 mos old guinea pigs "Harvee and Herbee"...they are so adorable...

This is Herbee...

And the orange one is "Harvee"...

I have been having so much fun, handling them, working on training them and just watching them do their goofy mannerisms they are a hoot!

Their life span is 6-10 yrs, if they are well taken care of...

I am looking forward to when they don't run from me, but to run too me!  Just like my rats did.

I know that Ally is happy with the piggies...she loves animals as much as I do!
