Junior Guinea Pig
I'm just really excited, so I thought I'd share! Everything has arrived, and I figured I'd make a post about all the stuff with pictures! I've accrued a lot at this point, it's just sitting all over my room xD
First up, General Supplies! They're all siting above my bed right now for the most part. This includes a kitchen scale, zip ties, detergent, a wash bag, Young GP food(unfortunately they were out of adult at the store), some small Rosewood items, mesh for cat/baby proofing, and more!
Next, food, food, more food! All the fun stuff. I've got two 20lb tubs of Hay, Orchard and Oat:
We took these pictures while transferring the hay from cardboard to totes at night under a floodlight, so the hay looks very strange xD It's super great smelling stuff, I adore it. To go with the hay, I also got Timothy Cubes!
Next up of course are every Guinea's favourite- Treats! Well, sorta. Treats and chews made of hays, grasses, and wood!
We've got organic apple sticks, seagrass braids, and a variety of hay twists and fidget sticks! It's cool stuff, and they come in a variety of flavours so I can figure out what exactly my pigs like, and what they don't.
And finally, the moment of great excitement: The cage!
I gave it a mock set up with some of the things I have, minus stuff for the half loft of course. Not pictured is a lap pad in the Northern Lights Fleece as well, and a fiberglass mesh+bungee cord lid. I tried pulling on it as hard as I could and it barely began to even bend, so I'm assured of it's abilities now!
I'm hoping to get this cage made Thursday night, with my lovely S.O., AKA the Unknowing Piggy Servant-to-be! *evil laughter* He's a bit better with wire cutters than I am, and he'll be helping me assemble the loft+put together the pegboard cuts I got to widen my desk and shelf "stand". As soon as it's all set up, I'll be sure to post pictures!

. I actually came off twitter recently because its so negative and I'm not on facebook either so its been very nice for me to have pleasant & fun conversations on a forum like this with people from all over the world, especially about piggies & craft ...whats not to like!? X
