Adult Guinea Pig
Don't mind me, I'm just a happy piggy mum and want to share what Willow did today!
I put my girls out for a bit of run/ferocious grass munching while I cleaned them out and I decided to go and pick some very big and juicy dandelion leaves and sit with them. I sat down by the run and waved the leaves; 4 girls came running up to me and 2 stayed back. This is the first time any of my girls have run up to me (my two original girls have always been very skitty and wary, and I've only had the other four for a matter of weeks)!
Willow, bless her, was coming up to me a lot for extra leaves (when food is concerned, that girl is right there!) and I tapped on the side of the run for her to put her paws on it and look over. When she did it she got a leaf. She's a very fast learner! In between some running around with the babies and grass munching she kept coming back to me and when I tapped on the side of the run (makeshift, its just some planks put together and some concrete siding at the moment!) she put her front paws on and looked at me for food!
Heehee, just thought I'd share. I'm so proud of her, she has the smarts! Makes me even happier because I've only had her for a fortnight! She's helping her friend Izzy out too and getting her to come up for food! (Izzy is possibly the shyest of the lot)
I love my girls x)
