Survivors Group Therapy

We enjoy pets, but are more skittish in the play pen. We graciously condescend to MS stroking us when we are in our cages 🏡
 
Merlin, Nes, and Mac: Mom tortured us today by CLIPPING OUR NAILS! 😠😠😠

We each got a treat after and still crawled back into her lap for more, and she even cleaned our pens out afterward so we had more room to poop, BUT STILL. 😤😤

Merlin even burrowed into her lap in protest, but she just waited patiently for him to finish his tantrum and told him she loves him. The witch.
 
We're not going to have time for floor time today but mom bought us a new magic carpet on sale to wash our old one.

The Dubai chocolate was a hit at work.

Long shift today, mom's hoping it goes fast.

She had a dream she was having an affair with comedian John Stewart who had a pet snake. Then a kitten clung to her leg and he went back to his wife.

Friends, I'm sending you this selfie so you can take a look at a malnourished boy with severe vitamin c-deficiency!

It was salad o'clock in the Kongo residence and I was making myself very much heard of. Slave was going to the grocery store and asked maleslave to give us our veggies.

When she got back I yelled at her and my whole body language said I was NOT happy! Maleslave only have us some cucumber, salad and bell pepper. Where's my beetroot or water melon or corn or carrot or something?

Love from Kongo - very upset

You are clever guinea pigs following the GPU recommendations. Always get as many treats as possible by complaining during grooming. The Guinea Pig Union is a wise and trusted organisation. Your slave must be exhausted after grooming three cheeky piggies ♥️♥️♥️

What a strange world. Truffle and I only eat cucumber and sometimes bell pepper. Even Romaine lettuce gets rejected these days. But baby spinach is loved by Truffle. MS got some cauliflower and we picked at it, but she is delighted that we ate something different for a change. MS did our personal care today and got lots of green poop on her. I'm off green spinach until my poops have firmed up. Truffle ate some bristles off the silicone brush, so MS is watching anxiously, hoping they will come out. They are pink. So far nothing has been seen 🤞but Truffle is behaving normally, so hopefully they won't do any harm.

Truffle my friend, you should eat your veggies and not a brush!

I give you my list of favorites in order:
Beetroot
Watermelon
Carrot
Red or orange bell pepper
Red apples
Kale - green or black
Cucumber
Honey dew melon
Romaine
Pear

Djingis:
Kale - black or red
Broccoli
Red bell pepper
Carrot
Watermelon
Red Apple
Cucumber
Tomatoes

Bell pepper, cucumber and salad is a daily, and then slave tries to mix the other things around. We love fresh herbs! Djingis is a terrible veggie-eater, though. Mostly he just take a few bites and then tossed it around. Babies!
 
MS came back from the kitchen to find Truffle in the play pen standing next to the brush, chewing and peering around his nose to better see where to bite the bristles. She snatched it away and on inspection several bristles were bitten in half 😯
She is worried that they might be sitting in Truffle's tummy waiting to cause problems. But he seems OK.
MS: I have had Rosemary on my window sill for a while but just assumed the piggies wouldn't like it. When I offered them some leaves they ate them eagerly 😄 So Rosemary is on the menu. I love this list of veggies and fruit 🍓🍑🥕
 
Truffle, you naughty boy. I ate plastic once and was fine, so fingers crossed you'll pass it. Lesson learned?

We just had cages cleaned and Chez was so nasty for his health check. Wiggling and kicking. Mom had just enough time to look at the anal sack and see that the penis was in its place.
 
I'm in my playpen! So far I've found like five cookie pieces! Mom forgot she left them there.

Mom met a lady with guinea pigs who invited her over for Thursday. Mom's a little worried about what she'll find because when she told her the dimensions of Stripe and chez's cages the lady said they were big. When mom asked what vet she used the lady said she didn't have a vet.

I'm zooming in my playpen!

Chez likes to be Chez lui 😉🏡 Sporty piggy Stripe ♥️
Hmm, I wonder if the lady would like to be on our forum. How to talk about cage sizes and vets. May casually slip it into the convo after a few visits 🥕

Survivors,
Slave said I was acting a bit of a couple of days ago, didnt she? I perked up. But yesterday slave realized I cant really eat like normal. I chew very slowly. Tomorrow I will visit that scary vet.

Slave is so scared I have tongue trapped under teeth. She thinks I eat the same way that Pikachu did. It also came very fast - from 0 to 100. If I have she dont know what to do, because what is a good quality life? To fix your toothies every 6-8 weeks? She says I cant give her that bad news, she really loves me and I'm such a charming young boy

I'm pretty happy because I get critical care. Alot.

From Djingis
 
Oh Djingis, you look so cute with your little blobs of Critical Care, like jewels on your coat. Poor slave, lots of worry. We are all hoping everything will be alright 🙏 You are such a handsome young guinea pig ♥️ It is very worrying.

Slave just cant believe these toothie-dramas follows her boys, and prays I just have a "sharp toofie" like Joe had. He could live with a very good quality of life even though he needed to fix his teeths now and then. He did not love those drunken days after a GA, though... The ground was wobbly, he said.

Well, something positive is that I waited until Kongo was fully back before I got trouble. Slave would have gone mental if we both had trouble at the same time. ♥️
 
Hi, I've been exploring for thirty minutes. Here's me lounging in my playpen. I try to do naughty things like get under the blanket, get to Chez, chew mom's bathrobe, etc. I have no respect for mom, neither me nor Chez respect her, she's just there to give us goodies.

Stripe you are so cute you could get away with anything and it's impossible not to adore you ♥️

🙏 Hope the vet can fix the problem and it doesn't come back all the time ❤️

Maybe it's an abscess? I hope it's something simple.

Yes, we hope for something very simple. I have both "good" and really bad experiences of toothies. My first pig I had when I was a kid also needed a trim. This was in the 90s, and I bet the poor little fellow didnt even get a GA. Afterwards we were told to give him processed sour milk for the tummy... Well, he lived for five years. Alone. I'm so happy we know so much more about these animals today and Djingis is going to the same dentist as Joe and Pikachu did. He's very magic.
 
Teeth, teeth, they cause so much trouble 🦷Hang in there Djingis, your slaves are going to take good care of you. Kongo: I can smell critical care 🤫

I'm very upset about Djingis getting the syringe and not me. Yesterday I tried all the ways I could to get to that syringe! I came running like crazy, took a big bite of the bars and moved my little paw around in the air. Slave gave me a teaspoon with critical care. We went to first base me and that tea spoon, if you know what I mean. Slave could see my tongue work like crazy. When it was done I bangded the spoon against the bars. Slave finally gave in and I got some tasty Apple&banana cc from that lovely syringe. I was starving!

Today I'm holding my small paws for DjingDjing. Slave is going to give him some food and then they are leaving. Poor Djingis! 💜

Love from Kongi
 
Holding paws and slave paws (hands) that the news is OK 🙏 Critical Care is Kongo's big love 😘 Polo: know how you feel bruv...
