The two pairs stay together, they are never like mixed and matched Tut Tut (the youngest) is housed with Benny (named after my grandfather because my grandparents got me him) and Derp and Dink. Derp and Dink are inseparable, but I don’t think Benny and Tut tut are, they don’t really fight or anything but they kind of do there own thing.
I am trying to rearrange things for them now, since my idea wasn’t good. I just thought that since they liked exploring etc, they would be ok in there pairs to be moved to a different area. I have really limited room, but I would do anything thing for my boys, including taking my bed out of the room and sleeping on the floor if need be. They are my kids and all I have. They are so spoiled and they absolutely my life. I have depression and stuff and I stay alive sometimes for their soul purpose. I love my boys more than anything and I just want them to be happy. I try so hard to make sure they are happy and not bored, or feel any of the negative things I’ve ever felt. I am a gay girl living in a super freaking small town, living with my grandparents, and probably going to never be with anyone/ have actuall children (sorry if that is TMI). When I first got guinea pigs I didn’t understand what they actully needed...I had a pig named Winston and
He was housed alone in a small cage, and I think he got mites and died. I was a kid and didnt understand what I know now, and I will never forgive myself for him...and that is how I have vowed to take care of the boys I have now.
Again, I’m sorry for the heaviness/personalness of this post, but without my boys I would have checked out of this life already. I obsess over their happiness....I don’t ever want them to feel the sad and bad things I have in my life. Sometimes I just don’t know what to do.
