Hi everyone,

I joined here years ago back when i was in college but it's been at least 4 years since then.

When i first joined i posted about this http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/showthread.php?55072-Is-it-just-old-age&highlight= unforgettably chocolate died a few months after! So I apologies for just disappearing.. and want to thank you for all the kind advice you gave me!

It took me a long while and I promised my self i wouldn't get any more guinea pigs or small pets but... There just too cute and i couldn't help my self! :(|)


So I've now go these two little cuties named Buttercup and Skittles!

Sorry to hear about Chocolate.

Welcome back to the forum, Skittles and Buttercup are gorgeous x) drool

Make sure you stay around this time lol Am looking forward to hearing lots about them and of course seeing lots of pigtures
 
Thanks so much for the welcome backs!

I look forward to hearing about your guys guinea pigs too!

These two seems to be great characters, Buttercup is the ring leader, I've only had them 3 weeks and she's learned that the creak of the bottom stair means I'm coming up and it's key to start wheeking and climbing up the bars! Skittles is a lot more timid, and needs Buttercup to make her be more cheeky.

Buttercup is VERY attached to Skittles, if i have Skittles is out of the cage for a cuddle Buttercup squeaks for her and rumbles til i put her back in! I've tried cuddling them together but they kept going in different directions! :)

That's so sweet, I love it when they get so excited over food, their little furry eating machines!
 
Hi and welcome back!

I am sorry about Chocolate. Buttercup and Skittles are both beautiful! Are they boys or girls?
 
There both girls, 7 weeks old! Buttercup is the ginger one and Skittles is the grey and white one! :]
 
Little Update

I thought I'd give a little update because i've been really busy doing overtime at work but also the piggies have had me worried sick too! :{

It turns out buttercup was pregnant when we got her by at least 2 weeks!

She's had her babies and they are all doing really well, she had four of them and they are all ginger like her but some have white patches too, they are 3 weeks old this Thursday!

I've named them all and so glad everything went well, I'm so angry with pet's at home and i wish i had read more about this before as it seems to be quite common! :)>>>

We're keeping all the girls, (we've checked skittles is a girl too so no more surprises will happen) but the little boy is going to my sister and hopefully we'll be able to find him a friend from a local rescue!

Here's some piccies...
