...hopefully coming to a newsagent near you early next year!

Thank you to everyone who posted comments. I will be contacting some people individually over the next few months including Cambridge Cavy Trust, and LauraCC4 (through the helpline contact if that's ok?) and other groups, society's and 'experts'. I will be asking for 50-60 volunteers to give feedback on a pilot sample magazine towards the end of the year if there is anyone who would be interested in doing this?

If you would like to send your stories, comments, and pictures to GUINEA PIG MAGAZINE - For Everything Guinea Pig, the web site is currently under development and I will post here when it is up and running.

I will be looking for potential Cover Pigs at some stage, is your pig wanting his/her 15 minutes of fame on the cover of Guinea Pig Magazine?

One of the regular features will be 'Guinea Gallery' where we can all enjoy (at least in pictures) each others sweet little pigs. Are there any questions that you would particularly like to know about everyone elses pigs, eg. Do you live indoors or outdoors? What makes you popcorn?

I am hoping that many of you will get in touch. Watch this space.......
 
Sounds really interesting. Am happy to be a 'guinea pig' for you and give feedback on the pilot mag, I run Guinea Pig Rehoming Norfolk so we get hundreds of guineas through the doors here every year :)
 
Ooh exciting! I'd be happy to volunteer to give feedback on the pilot mag.
 
Sounds good! Count me in to give feedback aswell!
I was just saying to the hubby at weekend there is no magazines for Guinea Pigs.
 
Exciting! I've been looking out for a Guinea Pig Mag since getting ours! :))
 
does sound good :) i'll happily give feedback to :)
 
As someone new to guinea pigs, I'd be delighted to give you feedback on the pilot. Myself and the kids have been on the look out for guinea pig magazines lately, but to no avail.

Will this be a magazine aimed for the UK mainland market or will it also cover Northern or all of Ireland?

would love to give feedback too!
As an immigrant (I know, I know), i could also tell you 'where I come from, ....' type stuff!
 
Very exciting, I really hope it takes off! I'm happy to give feedback as well.

Another idea for it if you're interested - piggie artwork and poetry. My mum has done a lot of work on this, a few members have seen her work and feedback on this is brilliant. Maybe a good addition to the magazine?

Feel free to contact any way you like, I'm glad to help any way I can. :)
 
It sounds brilliant! I've never seen a piggy magazine only rabbits:(:(
Good to have a proper animal magazine for piggy owners.
Do you know the cost yet?
I'd be happy to buy a copy
 
Hello, I am hoping this magazine will not be limited to UK mainland although I still have to get to grips with the distribution side of things. I will keep you updated.
Thank you!
 
I wonder if you could get in contact with the likes of Pets At Home to be a distributor, or whoever supplies their other magazines for sale in there (mainly doggy if I remember correctly). It would be a wonderful way to eduacte the general public on piggy care since many do still purchase from such places and most likely would pick up a magazine whilst purchasing piggies or supplies.
 
I'd be interested in seeing the pilot and giving feedback, if you require any more guinea pigs :(|)
 
This sounds great, I'd definetly buy it. I'd like to help if you need any, I don't know what I could do but if you'd like any help just let me know :)
 
I'd be interested in helping test the pilot copy too. Although looks like you've had lots of replied already. I look forward to the website too. Best of luck with it all :)
