Am I the only one with pets who seems to prefer to become sick on Sundays and holidays? I swear they know the most inconvenient time to do this poo poo. "Hmm, the vets office is closed today and there's a massive snowstorm forecast for tomorrow, time to get gut stasis!"- my guinea pig, right now.

Luckily I have a ton of pig drugs on hand and can likely treat this myself but I really don't need this kind of anxiety.

Oh no, poor pig :ohdear:.

What site do we use to upload pics these days? I need to post some of my piggie Penpen; she was dropped off at the humane society last year because of a tumor, and our cat/dog rescue asked if anyone would foster/hospice her. I volunteered, and took Penelope home. She is now called Penpen and barely does the cavy squeals unless I am late with her food.

I remember when I first got her, I'd wrap baby salad and cukes in a paper towel and make her tear it up to get it. Oh, she hated having to earn her food! Now she throws a fit if I just toss a handful in, she wants a puzzle, damnit!

Imgur's still the go-to.

On the eyesight chat: Rodents are probably very nearsighted, but their sense of hearing more than makes up for it and gives them a good understanding of things going on in their surroundings. Although we can't completely rule out the attention to flashing lights like computer screens. Many of my hams have fixated on computer screens when put on the bed or couch with a laptop running.

Would scent be a factor too? I'd have thought that even if they can't see more than a blur, the smell and sounds coming from that blur amount to a full profile of "it is the food-giving giant".

Aww, Barry the Stud Chinchilla passed away? I'm so sorry to hear that :ohdear:.

The beaver fever gave her some pretty bad diarrhea, which necessitated giving her an actual wet bath. The poor thing.



That is an expression of total betrayal and murderous plotting :ohdear:.

Just gave all my pigs a bath, they were long overdue. Everyone mostly hated it, and one of them started out by screaming bloody murder, then when she realized this wasn't working, just went completely limp and gave up. Set her down in my little tub and she rolled on her side with all her legs sticking out, awaiting death. What a drama queen lmao

Now they're all fluffy and smell good and pouting at me :3:

It's amazing how pointedly they can give you an Annoyed Look when they're upset with the giant that pets and feeds them.

Well old miss Mavis is still hanging in there, though today she has decided she'd rather not eat anything. At least she's feisty while I'm having to shove a syringe down her throat. :/



If Mavis can have a hissy fit about taking her medicine, then she can't be that sick :colbert:

Guinea Pigs can be surprisingly polite about not wanting to piss on you when they want to. The ones I had as a teen would both start getting real fidgety when being held to let us know that in a few minutes they were gonna take a piss and it could either be on whoever was still holding them or in the comfort of their cage.

The Bandai Arts channel on Youtube is cycling out an episode each week. Latest one is Episode 3, it'll get replaced with Episode 4 tomorrow I think.

Also Pui Pui Molcars absolutely needs more love.

edit: This is the Bandai Arts Channel where they're uploading it officially.

And episode 3, while the link's still good;

If you have not had the opportunity to witness the glory of Pui Pui Molcars yet (Bandai cycles the episodes on the Youtube channel weekly instead of letting them stay up :argh:), they're going on Netflix at the end of March on the 25th.

Loading up the carrier with hay was a great idea. I also brought a baggy full of chopped peppers to keep them happy. They got a clean bill of health from the vet!

Your vet bills maybe paid, but thread tax demands photos of the guinea pigs in question (if possible) :goonsay:.


Also glad they're nice and healthy.

They are :3: They’re all curly like their dad/uncle. A couple of them have extra toes, too.

You should give them all rich and noble (ie inbred) names like Lord Charles Squeakson Esq.

If I were you, I'd separate them asap. Top definitly looks female.

Bottom 3 have testicles decending.

I don't mean to be a buzzkill, but they have no qualms mating within their family.


You could get them all fixed if you want to keep them, but it's expensive, as you know.

I wish I had better advice.

Pretty sure they're already very aware of that unfortunate fact first-hand.

Nope, sorry, wrong thread entirely. You are now required to post EVEN MORE PHOTOS of your adorable Chinchilla friend as punishment though.

Those are the rules, sorry.
