Teenage Guinea Pig
I've been on the forum for quite a while but rarely post, preferring to enjoy everyone else's stories and pictures. However, I've been struggling with my latest herd bereavements and have found it difficult to enjoy my remaining piggies. I've made this thread as a way to try to mindfully spend time enjoying and observing them, for however long that may be.
So, being in Cumbria, it's only 24°C outside at the moment (with a high of 28°C forecast). However, it's 25°C in the house with all the curtains and windows shut and fans going so I got a little worried about my long haired piggies as they were melty puddles at 9AM (Quint, neutered male, on the left, Tamika in the middle, and Maple on the right.
I normally just clipper their "trousers" as my lot like to sit in their wee and hate being brushed, but this morning I gave them an all-over clip with pretty good effect! Hopefully they will be cooler now.
