My brother patiently listens to me eulogising about my guinea pigs (and rabbits, dogs and hamsters) day after day.

He is convinced that the guinea pigs are made of plastic as he has never heard them wheeking (anyone know why they go silent when I hold the phone up to their cage)?!

For my birthday recently he sent me a set of 6 guinea pig fridge magnets! They are sooooo lovely and to cap it all they stick onto the c and c cage grids. Most of them depict orange ane and white guinea pigs which match Jingle and Caramel very nicely.

Oh another thing. A long long long time ago when I was a child I was a Cliff Richard fan ... My brother refers to Mistletoe and Jingle as Mistletoe and Wine in honour of a Cliff song by that name.

Caramel is now known as cufflinks thanks to a joke about the grammer police and handcuffs which said brither referred to as cufflinks in a moment of forgetfulness. He then suggested that Cufflinks would make a great name for a guinea pig. My Mother enthusiastically agreed so Caramel is often known by this rather unusual name!

Congratulations if you have made it to the end of this long ramble.

Mistletoe (blonde) and Jingle (orange) sometimes referred to by a favourite brother of mine as Wine

Did wonder why he was sometimes called Cufflinks!
Envious of your fridge magnets!
I have an orange and white ornament that is the size of a three month old and sometimes catches people out thinking one of the little ones has climbed out! Especially when I move it about! Lol
 
How sweet of him. Very cute piggy pics. Hope you had a great birthday :)
 
Lovely piggies. When you hold the phone to the cage, try rattling their pellet bag or scrunching a bag of veggies....bet you get some wheeks then! Lol
 
Awwwww, very sweet! The magnets are great, what a thoughtful birthday present I hope you had a lovely day
 
Happy birthday and what a sweet and thoughtful gift!
