My Squeakers
Harvey (Male, about 2 months old)

Snackie (Male,1 year old)
My guinea pig cage -it's huge and started life as a rabbit run and it's in my bedroom! we just nailed together some wooden tree stakes and covered it with rabbit wire. We use a 24' plastic dog basket as a bed (my dog was more than a little concerned when we took it) cardboard boxes and fruit crates make for great hideaways and £30 worth of stove pipe my dad bought and didn't need is great for making lots of noise to wake me during the night!
Snackie going for a walk - He loves to hide in the long grass at the bottom of my garden when you take him for a walk.
Sorcha the cat - My squeakers' best friend (NOT!)
She likes to sit on my bed and try and think of ways of getting my guineas out of their cage.
My guineas' favorite hobbies
- Waking me up at 1AM to demand food
- Trying to escape in search of food
- Eating food - especially broccoli
- Teasing my cat
- Sitting in their food bowl
(Notice how most of their hobbies involve food?)
10 Reasons Why Guinea Pigs Are Better Than Other Pets
- They are easy to care for
- They don't chew your slippers
- They don't scratch your furniture
- They don't wake the neighbors up at 3 am
- They can be left alone for more than 5 minutes
- They are easy to handle
- They tell you when they need food
- They are much better than an alarm clock
- It's great fun to try and figure out what all their squeaks and warbles mean
- They're not offended if you sit in their favorite spot on the sofa
Jessie and Rory are my dogs .Jessie is a bit confused about the squeakers and has decided they are infact kittens!(she also thinks she is a cat )Rory on the other hand thinks the guinea pigs would make a nice snack which is where Snackie's name came from.
