yeah there must be piggies, and maybe crazy piggie people, just haven't met them yet. the lady the receptionist at the vets phoned, ran earlier she has a few older piggies, old stock i guess :'( i don't know weather to get a baby or older. pansy likes to be the boss so i'm thinking younger :-\ theres also a baby lionhead? from another one. i thought it was only rabbits that you call lionheads ?
 
do you think pansy would prefer an older or baby friend? sh elikes being dominant, so i was thinking younger, but i'm not sure :-\
she's 1, just gone O0
 
i would say a younger friend or a desexed male(sorry can't spell the castrated word). it really depends on the piggies. an older one may be laid back and a younger one be dominant or visie versie. sorry not much help, just wanted you to know that me and the girls are thinking of you! zoe is 3.6 and jessie is 1.6 and jessie bosses zoe around like there is no tomorrow. but zoe is just so laid back, she even let choloe boss her around. 0:) 0:) 0:) so i really think it depends on the piggy and it's personality. wishing you luck, sending you hugs and prayers. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: hoping the pain in your heart eases soon. trust in mimi she will lead you into the right direction. 0:) 0:) 0:) we believe she is watching over you! and she will show you the way! 0:) 0:) 0:) :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
 
yeah i was thinking that. well we're off to see some babies later on today, so we'll see what they're like. i don't think we'll be taking one though, just have a look and a think and maybe see the older ones aswell. i hurt so much inside and if it was up to me, maybe i'd wait, but it's unfair on pansy and also it may cheer me up to have another one to concentrate on, what ever the case i think when it gets serious and we're there thinking about actually getting one, i think i'll know if yes, i really want another, or no i just can't cope with it yet, so we'll see O0
 
A little babe may work well Izzy! I'm just thinking of Fleur. Amber has really brought her out of her shell and I was right about her mothering instinct. Or if she is a fun loving thing like Flora she may benefit from a baby and have some to run about with. :)
 
she is quite mummyish and also fun loving, so we'll see, i'm going to ask what their temprements like and i can have a think O0
been crying most of the morning, i guess it rubs it in, thinking of getting another, it'll be nice though :smitten:
 
Getting another softens the blow, Pudsey helped me get over the loss of Cuzzy although you never forget them. :smitten:
 
yeah :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: i think what i'll do is go and see both lots and ask what their temprements are like and go from there ;)
 
went to see them this afternoon (the babies) they're really gorgeous :smitten: they look healthy and alert and they haven't been anywhere near boys because there was on girls in the litter so thats good O0 they didn't seem neglected, but i don't think the woman had that much idea, they were in a hamster cage >:( but they did seem healthy and as bright as buttons.
my only worry is that they are so small! :o i just wonder waether she'd be scared and weather they'd take to each other :-\ pansy is so huge compared to her! :o what do you think? ? made me cry though :~D ::) i think it'll cheer me up though :smitten:
 
do you think if i got 2 babies it would be easier or would that scare pansy? ahhh too many questions, so hard to know! ::)
 
how old is pansy? i think when a piggie gets older its best getting 2 anyway because otherwise you will be going round in circles :)
 
I think you should get both :P You might end up feeling bad for taking one but not the other and you will know both of them are getting a good home :)
 
I's get both babies - get them out of the horrible hamster cage! Pansy (I doubt) will be intimidated, more like she'll want to be boss pig! Introduce them slowly, and I bet you'll find they're all very excited to find other guineas
 
i would get 2 babies and introduce them slowly to pansy perhaps at play time. and perhaps have their cages side by side so they can see and smell pansy and get use to each other a little quicker. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: hoping things work out, but only you can decide, whether your heart is open to the idea. :smitten: :smitten: sending you hugs and cuddles and hope you find your answer. hugs and cuddles :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
 
i've decided to go ahead and get the 2 :smitten: although in a way my heart is hurting so much, i feel this would give me something else to focus on and help cheer me up O0 it'll be lovely to see pansy happy again, and getting 2, it seems less like replacing mimi :smitten: thanks for your help :smitten:
 
So pleased for you Izzy, it will help you as well as Pansy. :smitten:

Can't wait for pics, when are you getting them!

I'm so impatient! ;D
 
yeah i hope so i'm really hurting because now it's really moving on from mimi but i think it'll help :smitten: :smitten:
hehe getting them tomorrow at 11:15 can't wait!! ;D
 
Aw really pleased for you Izzy! hope Pansy gets on with them, will be keeping my fingers crossed O0 x
 
well done Izzy good luck with you new babies, dont feel guilty I am sure Mimi would want you to give the same love she had to other piggies.
 
I have read on here about the auction sites/markets..not a nice place to go :'( but if there is one near you, there may be guinea pig in desperate need of some love?
 
there is none near me :( i just feel really bad for mimi and i guess i'm still really upset about her, but hopefully once they're here it'll help me O0
 
am so please for you izzy 2funny 2funny 2funny and like i said before i believe mimi guided you to these babies. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: she is watching over you! i know how you feel, when losing a loved one and you even think of getting another. you feel all guilty wondering if you're betraying their memory or thinking you've replaced them or will forget them or you didn't love them enough etc. but reading your posts and reading between the lines, you adored mimi, she knew that. can also tell this decision to get more piggies is hurting you and your heart. :'( :'( :'( but i still believe mimi has helped lead you to these piggies and she is popcorning in paradise glad that you are going to care for these piggies. 0:) 0:) 0:) mimi will always be in your hearts and thoughts and hoping these two babies will ease the pain for pansy and for you. take care and sending you hugs and cuddles. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
 
thanks so much mary thats so lovely. you are right i adored her and it is killing me, but i hope they'll help me and i hope mimi doesn't mind :'( :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
 
I'm sure Mimi wouldn't mind - she'd want you to have more piggies to bring more happiness to your life and she would want pansy to have friends. It's great you've decided to take both babies on. Can't wait for pics.
 
hoping your piggies arrived safely, have no idea what time it is in your part of the world. i do know it is 1808pm here in south aussieland. thinking of you sending hugs and cuddles to you and pansy. :smitten: :smitten: :-* :-* :-* :smitten: and i know mimi is smiling down at you and popcorning for joy for you and pansy. 0:) 0:) 0:) she knows you have much more love to give guinea piggies and she is happy! :smitten: 0:) 0:) 0:) :smitten: :smitten: take care i know how you feel, apart of you is happy, the ther part is confused, guilty etc. give yourself time! :smitten: :smitten: :smitten: NO piggy can replace mimi in your heart! 0:) 0:) 0:) she'll always be there. take care am thinking and praying for you. good luck with your new babies. :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
