Of your guinea pigs, do you love them equally or do you have a favourite?
 
I always love the piggy I'm holding at one moment the most. :inn:
But no, I don't really have a favorite because everypig is so special in it's own way. :wub:

Of course it takes a while to build up a relationship and there are differences in the trust levels the piggies show toward humans. Some piggies like to push humans away, but once you have earned their trust, that's really the biggest gift of all. :D

I love both of my pigs but Olive is so much more confident and will actually interact with me and come for pets, where Mabel will just hide and run at any noise so I definitely interact with Olive more
 
Well it’s bunnies not iI new pigs for me and I’d have to say I do have a favorite.

My favorite is Houdini by a clear mile, I think it’s primarily because I chose him coupled with the fact that he is so interactive and cuddly with humans. Of course all his early medical issues and excessive handling as a result are probably what contributed to cuddliness. We definitely bonded over his healthcare.

Flora, while I do like her….I like her in a different way if that makes sense. She’s a very sweet bunny and far tamer than the wild thing that she was when she first arrived, but she can be spontaneously nippy and to be honest that puts me off handling her a bit because I am not entirely relaxed in the anticipation. I love watching her binky and enjoying herself from afar.
 
I love my all the same and they each have their own personalities but I must admit, I have a soft spot for Edward but I’ve had him the longest for nearly 5 and a half years (he turns 6 in November) If you ask my husband the same question, Ella is his favourite as in his eyes, ‘she’s the cutest’
 
I adore all my piggies equally but Eevee is my favourite as she’s my old lady piggie so I worry more about her and am a little ott protective with her :P just want to make sure she still has many more years.
 
I love them all equally but do admit to having a soft spot for the boys. They all have great personalities in small bodies. I think the boys are (perhaps 1cm) closer to my heart because I got them first. I know it’s inevitable (and I don’t want to lower the mood!) but any of them passing would leave a gulf in my heart. Hopefully they’ll be with me for another good 3 years at least.
 
I've never met a piggie I didn't love, I love all mine more or less equally. If one's going through a hormone spike or some other difficult behaviour he might slip a little in popularity. I don't love Red when he's having a bar biting session!
 
I love them all, there are characters that stand out more but I don't love the others any less for it.
