So, woke up at 6.25 this morning. Rolled out of bed, got in the shower, got dressed. As soon as I approached my bedroom door;
Sprout: WHEEK. WHEEKWHEEKWHEEK! *Translation; Breakfast needed! My bowl is empty. Starving guinea pig needs feeding!*
He is not starving. He’s very well rounded. Has loads of hay. But still...he’s a good alarm clock if I ever have trouble waking up!

Looking like butter wouldn’t melt...
 
My Tallulah-hippo-alarm went of at... 4.44am! My little hippo has a much better thermostat than my central heating, the temp had dropped to 16.5 degrees overnight (the heating comes on at 6am usually) but day or night if the air temp goes colder than 17 degrees even for a couple of minutes if someone opens the door... wheek wheek wheek wheek wheek wheek!... until it hits 17 again.
Clever little oollah-woollah hippo thermostat, who needs that snugglesafe and 3 fleecy beds when you can get mummy up in the early hours to heat the whole house for you?
Tonight we might try out the oil filled radiator and a blanket over the cage!

And why shouldn’t she? No fun being cold when you don’t have fur!

Gosh she’s a clever little thermostat!
 
We are sleeping in the spare bedroom for the next three nights in bunk beds and with the boys! As family are turning up soon. Luckily they rarely wheek, Ted has no wheeker at all, they are the quietest piggies I’ve ever had, I’d love a wheek!
 
Gonna start putting blankets over bits of their cage, got an air vent in my room that won’t close. Clever tallulah! Xx
