Senior Guinea Pig
Barley has been on his own since we lost his beloved Ellie. Any attempts to bond him with our girls had failed and it was looking like we would need to take him dating. Then our friend asked us if we would take her sow Dulcie. She had originally been part of a bigger group but had sadly lost her friends, including her boar friend Mooli and Sophie who she was still living with was getting distressed with Dulcie wanting to play all the time (Sophie has always preferred her own company). So she is here. It is basically a long term foster arrangement as she will always be Gigi's pig and we have said she can see her whenever she wants to.
Anyway, it was almost love at first sight, they are so smitten with each other and there has been lots of humping and popcorning. She is the tamest pig ever, lets us stroke her and have cuddles, and she bites our lips when she needs a wee. She also helps with the daily cage clean. Gigi has done an amazing job with her as she was very nervous when she arrived. She had been living on her own in a small cage. We think she is about 2 and very lively, so Barley at 4 is getting a bit worn out.
Here they are (she's the black and tan one)
