Whilst the forum was down, we started the above thread on the temporary one. As we are all back home here thanks to our wonderful admin/moderator team xoxo we would like to start this thread again.

Can we ask everyone who posted on the temporary forum to repost on this thread as there were some great pigtures and reasons why. Sorry sport billy but we really ;) need to see your mugshot again! 8;)8)

We all have an all time favourite guinea pig pigture and the reason why we love it so much. So can you please post your pigture and give your reasons why.

Here is ours of Wallace and Gromit together - its terrible quality but for some reason we lost a lot of the photos we had of them together. This is one of the few we have of them together as Gromit passed over the Rainbow Bridge a year ago.

 
This is still my favourite pigture because they remind me of the Kray Twins.

Ok it is huge...
 


This may not be the cutest picture, or the best quality, but it is my favourite because following a lengthy period of illness this was the first time that I had dared to believe that Jerry just might make it. He had an awful reaction to an antibiotic injection that none of us could have ever have predicted and he went downhill rapidly. At this point he hadn't eaten for himself for 3 days, and I'd been syringe-feeding him day and night. He seemed like he was giving up.

In a last attempt to get him to eat for himself I cut him some fresh grass from the garden and presented it to him in his cage. He came out from under his hidey and ate a little grass and I was so relieved that I burst into tears! I hurriedly took this picture to send to my husband in work.
 
This has to be my favourite photo because the two made this heart like shape all by themselves.

It means a whole lot more to me now that I've lost Ludwig - the one with the brown eye patch- and I can see how Gilbert misses him so much.

This is my favourite pigture. It's my special boy Nutty. When I was unwell my mum would bring him up to cuddle me in bed and this was taken one of those times. He just loved to cuddle up to me and comfort me when I was ill. He was such a special boy and I still miss him terribly

my favourite photo is this one of nutmeg, hazel and lily. this was taken when they were 3 weeks old. there mom blossom, had to kept away from them as she had a prolapse and needed surgery. this is the day that their 2 brothers chaz and rex had to be seperated from them too. they looked so scared in the big hutch by themselves and soon snuggled up together in the snuggle sack to feel safe. sadly only nutmeg remains out of them all now. poor blossom had several pregnancies before i took her in and the babies all died within 12 months of being born apart from little nutmeg. blossom died suddenly too. this photo is very special to me now

Jess your piggies always seem to tickle me. The way they love each other. They are inseparable and are true to each other.
 
This is my favourite, it was the first I ever took of them and to me they are discussing what kind of a home they had come to. I imagine the conversation going something like this;

Ben:- ''It's a bit girly don't you think, I mean pink? Just what is she thinking?''

Jerry:- ''Mmm and a bit 'compact and Bijou' wouldn't you say''

Ben:- ''Well yes, but I mean, Pink?''

Jerry:- ''And another thing, I can't find the litter tray and I need to go!''

Ben:- ''It's probably pink and camouflaged! Oh dear, I am just so funny!''

I hasten to add this was a temporary cage for two nights until I got home and they went into something bigger only for that to grow into the C&C Mansion they currently call home. (and no, its not pink and they have a litter tray each which they seem to think are day beds lol)

 
It's very hard to pick just one photo but this is one of my special favourites of Woody & Buzzy enjoying grass time.

Woody was very special and he & Buzzy were inseparable, they were like soul mates & Buzzy hasn't managed to bond with any other piggy since we lost Woody (despite several attempts!) so he now lives happily in his own C&C with my other piggies right next to him.

This photo reminds me of their very special bond, the fun they had together and the joy that gave us. :)

Is that who Neep is? Someone said that to me the other day and I hadn't a clue what they was going on about :))

Yes, Abney and Teal live a lovely enchanted life, I love the programme, and wish I lived in that world at times. Neep is so cute, and the poc pocs are too. Casper just reminded me of Neep the moment I saw his lovely tufty head.

Hi there, great shot. Do you mind me asking what camera and lens it was taken with?

Thanks very much but I can't take the credit as it's one of my son's photos. He's a keen photographer & has given me the technical info for you (a bit over my head!) ..... it was taken on a Sony SLT-A55 with a Tamron 90mm macro lens.

Between us it took a whole afternoon to get some good shots as the boys were in a very cheeky mood that day & gave us the run around! :))
 
My girl Pumpkin who passed away a few years ago was living as a lone pig for a long time, when I got two of my current girls Sookie and Sherbert I put them in this temporary cage with a split down the middle while they got to know each other. Pumpkin went right up to the barrier and flopped like this, she was basically glued to the barrier trying to get as close to them as she could. Its one of my favourite memories, seeing her that relaxed and happy with her new friends.
