Friday Video: Car wash

The pigs from the Happy Cavy blog wrote an excellent post on how to clean your guinea pigs ears. And they posted a video to go with it (with a soundtrack!!!). Go there. Check it out. Do not just watch the video here, the whole blogpost is awsome.

Have a nice Wheekend!

p.s. as an extra giggle for the wheekend; check out this pigture we found on the facebook page of Gorgeous Guineas

New Trend?

We found Agent Lily'explorer sleeping on top of a house...

Lily
...head on the hayrack. 

An hour later we saw some ears flapping from Agent Wheeker...
Daisy

It's starting to become a new trend here at the Guinygirlz Crib!

Do you have nice spots to sleep on or in?

Happy Easter from the Misfits!

Happy Easter season to you all from the Misfits

Our two girls would love to be secret agents. They are big enough now.




Meet Agent Moonflower She was born on aug 1st 2012 her real name in English means Child of the moon or in Hebrew Promised of God it is also very similar to the name of a flower.


Meet Agent Sassoon she was born on july 1,2012 her agent name was chosen because she hopes to be a famous hairdresser one day as well. Her real name means Adams Son (but she is a girl, humans are weird) it is also the name given to several cities throughout the United States.


These agents are cage mates and live next to Rileys cage and Riley is soo in love with Agent Moonflower it is so cute to watch them two talk! as their cages are budded up next to each other

Both are good girls. Sassoon seems to be the bossy pig and Moonflower just goes with the flow of things. If you notice both are long hairs but Moonflower's hair is not long due to Sassoon loves to "trim" it!!!! Moonflower loves hay the best and Sassoon loves green peppers. We drove to Peoria, IL to get these girls. We thought we were just getting one but Andy couldnt leave Moonflower when he found out she needed a home too. So that is how this duo came to be Misfits.

New Agent: Mister Pig

Our gentlepig Sjeuf has finally chosen his agent name: Mister Pig. It was about time too, because he has been living with us since December 10, 2011 (so over 2 years!)

Agent Profile

Agent name: Mister Pig. We actually wanted to use 'Mr. Darcy' first, because both are kinda hard to approach (Sjeuf runs way..), yet a real gentleman once you get to know him. But after a play on words using the 'Sex in the City'-series as inspiration, we went for 'Mr Pig'.

Real name: Sjeuf. His name is a typical name (in dialect) for men from the south of the Netherlands. He got the name at his shelter and it stuck. We also like it when our friends from Amsterdam try to pronounce the name (more often than not; quite unsuccesfully, since the southern Dutch requires a more fluent pronounciation of the 'eu', like French (e.g. jeu))

Showing off his cute nose

Agent Facts: Born in September 2010, wheighs 1180 grams, Sheltie (or Silky), has lilac fur (which is posh for grey) and ruby eyes. 

Agent History: when we went to the shelter to find a new boar, we asked for the sweetest boar they had, and they introduced us to him. Sjeuf is always sweet, polite and nice to the ladies. He is also kinda shy, but he prefers to call that mysterious or he'll claim that he is in undercover guinea pig training. Whatever. Many of our human visitors think we're a herd of 2, not 3. In spite of his initial shyness, he loves cuddling with the human (and us too)

Mysterious.. ?

Relationship: Sjeuf is dating the lovely Pepper. They like going on extreme dates like sky diving and cross country racing

Super powers: Sjeuf is very good at stealth, and is also very fast. As long as the opponents are guinea pigs he can be quite charming too. He also is an extremely clean boar. He claims that doing Yoguinea exercizes help him to achieve this. He rarely wheeks, but when he does, he is very loud (and low)

Favorite food: hay, pellets and chicory. Not too big on other veggies actually..

Hobbies: building nests, cuddling and popcorning

Always happy to see the waitress

Friday Video: Agent Zeppelin

We have seen Agent Zeppelin (aka Jimmy) in real life and he is VERY cute. The camera however, seems  to be convinced that no one else online ought to know this. So when we saw a video of him on twitter, we asked him if we could feature it in the friday video blogpost (and Miss Pepper is very cute too ;-))


Have a nice Wheekend!

p.s. Mr B is his staff

Peter Gurney Memorial

We lit a candle yesterday, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, to remember Peter Gurney and Igor, Yaya, Suus an Jan the Boar.

Winky team lights a candle

Our staff read his book 'The proper care of guinea pigs' to us, which is full of good advise and lovely pigtures, made by Mr Gurney himself (the girls now have crush on Free Range Fred). What we absolutely loved the most about this book, is that Mr Gurney's love and enthousiasm shines through the pages. For those of you who have not read it, some quotes:

"The most wonderful animal in the world! I usually reply, when strangers ask what the creatures are that I have cradled in my lap, in the park"

Pigs in the Park

"I wouldn't dream of going out into a public park without my shopping basket carrying a couple of guinea pigs. They are delightful company (..)"

Peter's appartment

"I live with 37 guinea pigs in a small flat, and I do not suffer from any of the following: unsightly hutches, bad odors, hay-strewn carpets (..)"

Thank you mister Gurney, for loving our kind so much and happy birthday at the rainbow bridge with so many of our friends.

Peter Gurney Memorial: March 9th

Message from the gpdd, all can pigticipate to remember their lost guinea pigs and other loved ones. After the memorial, you can leave a comment on our reminder post of upcoming saturday when you participated, we will make sure Audrey gets a list of all the places where we lit a candle

Everyone is invited to participate in our annual Candle Light Memorial for Peter Gurney and for all of our pets and friends who have left us and are now at the Rainbow Bridge. All you have to do is light a candle on March 9th, at or around 8:00 pm, in your particular time zone. As candles are lit in each time zone, the lights will travel around the world, and all of our beloved pets and friends at the Rainbow Bridge will know that we are all thinking of them. Afterward, just send a post to the Digest and/or to me, and we will post a list and a map showing all the locations where candles were lit.

This is our 8th Candle Light Memorial, and we want it to be better each year, so tell others about it too. You can see last year's world map and list of locations where candles were lit on the GPDD homepage, www.gpdd.org where you can also read about Peter Gurney, who the memorial was named for.


Remember to mark your calendars for March 9th, at 8:00 pm to light your special candle!!? And tell others, too!

Audrey
(Remembering Gordon and Reese, at the Rainbow Bridge)

Lunch

We've overheard a conversation on television where a human explained to another human that he didn't like social media because people were talking about silly things and posted photo's of their lunch. We couldn't agree more!! Guinea Pigs talking over lunch and posting pigtures is way more interesting ;-)

So, what did you have for lunch? We had a lovely selection of chicory leaves served in our hammock, and we complemented it with some real Dutch tap water straight out of the water bottle

Nomnomnom


Waitress, another leaf of chicory please
