I came home early as I'm full of the cold/flu so spent all afternoon in bed, they didn't even greet me just looked blankly as if to say, it's not time for dinner yet. Then I went for a snooze to be awoken by them 'shouting' at me, 'wheek', not one of them has asked how I'm feeling and now Patrick is demanding his fluids.

Seriously; I need to re-think this guinea pig idea, little bullies! x
 
*Hugs* You have my sympathy, my pigs who don't require fluids are selfish to me too!

On a valentines day I was really not well, I had a horrible cold and a migraine and I got up and my floorboard squeaked and there was angry shouting downstairs, several hours later when I did emerge to look at them they sat scowling at me.

I do wonder why we do it, Fred sits staring and chattering his teeth. Can hear his chants now "slave this is unacceptable behaviour, your late! We don't care that your unwell our bellies are hungry do you expect us to feed ourselves?"

The abuse!

Seriously, I don't think I understood the contract when investing in Guinea pig's do you think someone would take them back! :(|)
 
HUGS!

I hope that will feel better soon! Piggies are good training for when you end up with a hub or children... mallethead
 
Oh that is so familiar. When I am ill they will just wheek and me more as I do not give them as much attention. I am sorry you are ill. I hope you do not have the horrible virus I have just had.
 
Oh my, he does look rather grumpy for mummy not doing her job.

I was lucky, when I was ill 2 weeks ago my mother took over the feeding for me as I still live with my parents. The piggies were fed and I got to rest in bed.

I don't have time for a husband or children, the guinea pig's would never allow it. I was dating someone but Patrick decided it wasn't acceptable, he proceeded to stop eating of course I had to cancel all my dates and the fella soon got fed up of being cancelled on.. Wasn't to be :))!

Perhaps it didn't help, I didn't say why I was cancelling but I don't think anyone would be impressed about being stood up for a guinea pig! :red
 
I know what you mean, when I had my coldy bug earlier this month, the piggies still gave me their orders *shakes head*

Get well soon x
 
Ah, yes... piggies are not very reciprocal when it comes to such things. rolleyes

Feel better soon Jo. xx

Well if there is a next time and i'm sure there will be darling..... i'd tell them.........best to know quickly if they'd be worthy of being a piggie slave or not :p
 
as the slave you are not allowed to get SICK! Piggies need the slaves undivided attention didn't you know? :))
 
Sorry to hear you're not feeling very well and I hope you feel better soon!

I know exactly the feeling!

Yesterday I had a conference in London, so I left the house at 13 : 00 (not going to be home until 01 : 00) but making sure they have veggies, pellets and hay, plenty of water and even a bottle of barley water I just made up, as well as a couple of nibblesticks.

I told my OH to check in on the guineas before he left for his night shift (around 18 : 00).

Last night I get home to silence (when I'm usually welcomed by a chorus of wheeks as soon as they hear the lock in the door turn!) All 3 of them were awake in their pigloos ignoring me and wouldn't even come out for cucumber! This morning, they ignore me when I lay out breakfast for them - I'm still in their bad books!

This afternoon, I'm working from home (upstairs with the door closed) on a call with my boss, who can hear the loud wheeking from downstairs from the motley crew demanding for floor time and veggies! Oh, so now you want attention?
 
Lol Guinea pigs just like their bellies to be full. No matter what I am feeling like, they always let me know that it's time to eat! WHEEK WHEEK WHEEK
 
I know what you mean rolleyes It was the guinea pig's birthday on Friday, and I had (and still do have!) one of those horrible illnesses when everything hurts and you want to crawl into bed and sleep for a day or three. In all fairness to me, I did wake up at veggie time, and even gave them a piece of corn on the cob as a treat, took a few pictures and then collapsed in bed again.

Needless to say the girls are not impresses with me at all! And pictures of the birthday girls are coming!
 
Hope you are feeling better. Piggies do quickly figure out how to get the hoomans at their beck and call! mallethead

When we had our trio and their cage was in our room, Storm used to bang the metal hayrack against the cubes during the night if she fancied some more hay or treats! Yes, it woke me up, and stupidly I gave stuff to her so that I could go back to sleep! Needless to say, Mists is now in the living room! Mind you, Puck makes enough noise at night in our room! mallethead rolleyes
