Friday Video: Agent Prince #Olympigs

You guessed correctly! Ladies and gentleboars, for your viewing pleasure, Charles is getting ready to nap. Beautiful exercise, Agent Prince, well done!!



Charles became a Misfit on Nov 6, 2010. He is estimated to be born around June of 2009. He came to be a Misfit because his "owner" a young child dropped him, which hurt Charles's back so that is why he wobbles when he walks and because of that they didn't want him anymore! Well, he was actually put up for use for snake food at the misfits local seed and feed. Lucky for him Jean and Andy said 'Heck no, he is not going in any snakes belly!' when they saw him that day. So that is how he came to be a misfit.

The video was taken by Jean, she wanted to show us how Chuck finds that comfy spot before he falls asleep. We also got some extra pigtues of this handsome (agent) Prince doing his magic.

Enjoy and have a nice Wheekend!

Okay gold medal, here I come!
Almost there..
zzzzzz..

His real name is also the name of the current heir to the English throne.

#Olympigs Fifty Yard Nap: Curly

Agent Wizard reporting.
Slave picked up me and my friend Agent Curly to have our nails trimmed. I behaved impeccably as usual and then she went to clip Agent Curly's nails. Her son was holding him as, with Curly's fluffy coat, it is hard to see his feet. He promptly leaned back and fell asleep upside down so I am entering him for the next leg of the fifty yard nap. Counting is not my forte but I believe that this is leg 20.
Don't tell Agent Curly that I have sent in this pigture as he might be embarrassed.

#Olympigs Synchronized, Combined Events!

Here is Agent Orioles' whole herd eating green spaghetti while all competing in the fifty yard nap! How's THAT for synchronization?! Do we get a gold medal? Featuring a new Agent! Meet Agent Chirpy, so named because she's the only chirper in the herd! Weirdo. Can anyone else chirp? A hint for her name that it is a type of warm winter jacket.

Well, back to the spaghetti now. *chewchewchewchewchewchewchew*

Have a nice Wheekend!

p.s. Have you seen Agent Hamster and Halloween starting the 50 yard nap? We need more pigs to do more yards! So please send us your pigtures.

#Olympigs Fifty Yard Nap: Halloween

Here is our entry for the second yard.
This is our dear Halloween. He says that he is far too old to be an Agent but could we enter him in the veterans class? He is napping indoors but he is in a pen that is a yard square so we hope that this will count.

Friday Video: The German #Olympigs Meerschweinchen

In the spirit of the #Olympigs, this week some footage from German television. The reporter wants to know how fast guinea pigs really are. Cassie shows the camera man (2:06 min into the video) that she can run 4 to 6 meters per second. In human time this is 21 km in an hour (or 13 miles).

Mister Usain Bolt runs 200 meters in 19.32 seconds. So he still is faster than us pigs; the same distance would take a fast piggy about 33 seconds (if he or she has the stamina, we are better suited for the 200 cm sprint)


Have a nice Wheekend!

10 reasons why you should own a human

One of our friends sent us a slideshow with 7 reasons why a human should get a guinea pig. Well.. that's all good fun for the humans, but we'd rather make a list of why we should own a human (don't tell the humans, but you all know we rule the world, right?)

1. Full body massages*
Need I say more? Best thing about being a guinea pig. Period.

2. The sipping of the tea
We actually don't know why, but we find it oddly comforting when J stares into space and makes those tiny slurpy noises

3. You can dress them up as a haystack
Yes! You can leave hay all over them, just in case you get hungry during your full body massage. Extra points if they have pockets to hide your poo

4. They make good sofa's
Humans are snuggly and warm. We love resting our head underneath a big chin. It feels so safe.

5. Tasty
Humans can be rather tasty. Try licking their skin, but watch out for the ones with the lotion

6. They are cheaper than a walkin' fridge
We're also not sure if they are actually invented yet, even though the commercial suggests otherwise


7. They don't make fun of your poo collection
They just throw it out every week *humpf*

8. You always feel smart around them
Ghe..

9. They're low maintenance pets
Really, they clean and feed themselves. You just need to talk to them and make them feel welcome when they get home

10. They can be very entertaining
Ours does bellydancing. It's hilarious, like our rumblestrutting, but less advanced. But it just fills our hearts to see the poor soul have so much fun

So.. how does your human entertain you? And do you have tips to help us get more out of our humans?

* hattip for @LilPecan for bringing this to our attention
