I am now banned from anywhere that has guinea pigs. The last time I adopted a pig from pets at home was Mario who I sadly lost after neutering. I didn't want to do it again so always resisted going near the pigs when I went in. This time I didn't I went to nosey, saw this little baby girl. Told myself no over and over again, walked around the store getting other bits but kept ending up back there. She was on her own, this black scruffy little thing.

Long story short she is home with me now. Thankfully a girl but I don't think it would have mattered, she'd captured my heart from the moment I saw her. I feel guilty for getting her from the store but so glad that she has a good home with me now.

So yes. I am not allowed anywhere near anywhere anymore. *sigh*

And grrrr my phone won't let me upload a photo. I will do soon.
 
It's so hard isn't it! I know if I didn't have the space or resources to take another on I wouldn't have but I do and sometimes there is just one you can't say no to!
 
If you CAN walk away, walk, if you can't... It is sometimes so hard, as every piggy has a right to be loved and cared for, but there are just too many!

I try to be good and go rescue to help make space for them to take in more neglected or unwanted piggies from their waiting list, but it has been a very close-run thing at times.
 
It is hard and I've walked past so many! But there was something about her! Her name is Bess. I will post a pic as soon as I can x
 
Can't wait to see her. Glad shes home with you now where she will be loved and looked after.

Edit: We posted at the same time! Shes gorgeous! :love:
 
How adorable! She will have such an amazing life now :D

There was a beautiful black pig in my pets at home a few weeks ago, he was so vocal and active! He would run up to the glass and I would put my finger on and he would put his nose to my finger, then run away, then run back and do it again! Wheeking the whole time! He was so fun!

I already have two boys, so in no way was it possible! But the temptation was unreal, but I had to let him go!
 
She's gorgeous, I got Bert from P@H because he was smaller than the rest and wasn't drinking and such and now he's a beast! Couldn't resist that gorgeous little man and him and Frank love each other, so you know, what counts is that that beautiful little girl is in an amazing home! :')
 
It's so hard isn't it. There was a tonne of gorgeous little boys there, but only her in the girls side. I'm assuming that she was the last of the last batch they got in. Totally stole my heart!
 
It is hard, there was a little girl that looked like a lady Frank, and I wasn't allowed :(
 
I think Hoppy was rescued from P@H with her sister ... She seems like a P@H breed

Anyway, that little girl is gorgeous! Can't wait to see her when she's in all settled in :)
 
Oh I am just in love. She is Winnie's double, apart from being black! Winnie and Lyza are slightly bigger than her, she's only tiny bless her!
