Hey guys,
So I have decide to start writing a little diary to record my life with my brand new guinea pigs! I have bought two female guinea pigs they are from a pet store as unfortunately I couldn't find any rescue centre close enough to me :no: They are absolutely beautiful! I am collecting them on Sunday and I can not wait! :yahoo:
Lots of love from Me, Bella and Nutmeg:luv:
PS: There will be pics coming soon! And also tell me what I could improve about my little diary x
 
What a pity you don't have a rescue nearby. Roll on Sunday - will understand if we don't get pictures straight away - your guinea pigs will need time to settle down 1st.
 
Yes I will try and get a quick couple of pics before they go into their hutch for the first time! I am so excited!:clap:
 
Starting a piggie diary is a wonderful idea, best wishes for Sunday to you, Bella and Nutmeg. Hope to see them soon!
 
Hey guys,
Only 3 more days till my girls come home! Today I thought I would show you what I have for their cage so far!image.webpA living world medium dome in red!

Please give me ideas on what other good toys I could buy them or make them! I love getting stuff for their cage its so fun, and I can't wait to watch them explore their new home soon!:yahoo:
Lots of love from
Me, Bella and Nutmeg :luv::tu:
 
I will defiantly try that! Thank you x
 
Aww you sound so excited. I'm happy for you. My pigs really love paper bags with hay inside. You could try it with your piggies once they settle in.
 
So exciting, looking forward to an introduction thread on them
 
Starting a diary is a great idea! I think I'm going to start a scrapbook about all of my pets, just so I can remember them.
I can't wait to see the introduction and pictures.
I'm so happy for you! Best of luck. :D
 
Hey guys,
Only one more day till my piggie come home! I can't wait!! I will try and take a couple of pictures for you all!
Lots of love from
Me, Bella and Nutmeg :luv:
 
Fantastic idea for keeping a diary! I have lots of toys in my pigs cage, I tend to get jingle toys so I can hear if they play with them when I'm not in the room, but in all honesty free toys are the best, newspaper tents, paper bags, cereal boxes and cardboard tubes. Just hide veggies and hay inside everything, make sure nothings to tight for them to get stuck in and cut it if it is. You will have so much fun with your piggies, also mine love having their veggies in a metal ball with a bell on that I hang on the cage for them! Cant wait for your pictures :D
 
Hey guys,
So I brought home my two piggies yesterday! :love: They are so tiny and are only 6/7 weeks old! I am literally in love. I gave them a little stroke before they went into their hutch to settle in and they are so friendly! I took one picture of them in their carry box when we got home. It's not very good but it's something :D image.webpNutmeg is the one at the top and Bella at the bottom:luv:
Lots of love from
Me, Bella and Nutmeg:luv:
 
@Loverolo, they are absolutely beautiful! :love: Nutmeg has particularly swirly fur... I love that! How are they settling in?
Love your piggies, I wish you the best of luck! :luv:
 
Awwww, the little cuties! Best of luck with them! They could have put some hay in the box though!
 
They are defiantly settling in and I am holding them for the first time tonight so I will get some pictures!
 
Don't rush into holding them too much. I would have left it a few days until you pick them up yet, and bombard them with the camera especially first time holding. They're very pretty girlies.
 
Hey guys
I'm sorry to tell you all that Bella past away last night at just 9 weeks old. It was very sudden and we think it must have been a heart condition or something from birth! I will be getting a new guinea pig soon as a companion for Nutmeg ximage.webp^RIP Bellaimage.webpNutmeg x
I will keep you updated on the cause of Bella's death and getting a new piggie!
Lots of love from
Me and Nutmeg :luv:
 
Thank you x I feel bad getting a new piggie but Nutmeg can't live on her own x
 
Please don't feel bad. Nutmeg needs a friend. If you go to a pet shop you will need to quarentine the new piggy for two weeks before introducing them.

Thank you and why?

The reason is because pet shop piggies are often ill and it takes two weeks to see signs of illness or mites. If you were just to introduce them the new pig could transfer something to Nutmeg. Do you know how to introduce them?
 
No not really haha could you help me? Also what do I do if I don't have a spare cage?
 
I don't have one though so what should I do? My mum and dad won't buy I new one!
