Friday Video: Pets 101

This week Animal Planet's 101 on Guinea Pigs


Allthough we like this video for it's high quality and cute actors, we'd like to mention that we don't agree with the advice to spay or neuter the pig. We only recommend that when you intend to house a male with a female(s) in one cage. And even then, we'd only recommend neutering the male, since operating on him is far less invasive compared to a female. Guinea pigs aren't like cats and dogs who can escape out of the house and meet a nice stray companion for the night.

So.. with that all said, have a nice Wheekend!!!

p.s. If there are other things that they didn't get quite right or you would like to elaborate on. Please write them down below in the comment section (because we do think are some other little things..).

Suus and Dunya's citytrip : The Hague - part 4

Hey Mister, can I sit on your lap?

Wow... the Queen sure has a big.. eh.. Palace... Look how tiny we are, standing in front of it. We should show this pigture to Princess Snowflake and Prince Teddy. Maybe their slaves can build something similar.

 In front of the palace, next to the statue of william the silent, the girls found some more plants.. 'This isn't tasty at all!! And I'm hungry again!!'

Hello Queen Wilhelmina, do you happen to know a place nearby where we can get some lunch? The nice queen directed them to a hofje (which is a Dutch word for a courtyard with almshouses around it)

 Mjwhwmmm... excellent salad bar!
And ow.. the scenery is nice too

 And then it was time to go home because the two little pigs were very tired.
While they sat in the tram on their way back home, they had big smiles on their faces.
'That sure was a great day, Suus!'
'Yes it was, Dunya'

The End

Friday Video: The Guinea Pig Song

We love this cute little song! We'll probably end up singing it for the entire wheekend.


Have a nice wheekend!!

p.s. If it doesn't work displayed within our blog, here's the link

Mystery Agent G

Meet out latest Undercover Agent, he has chosen the name Agent G as in G force and because his real name starts with a G.

Agent G is the latest member (that we know of lol) of a mixed herd in Illinois, he is already a SCAMP (Senior Citizen Aging Miracle Pig) being 5 years old, he has recently found his new home where he will live out his days in peace and quiet, well apart from when he is busy doing his undercover work.

Clues to his real name - Its a German name meaning rule of the spear
It is very similar to the name of a famous French actor with a distinctive nose

Get Guessing.......

Suus and Dunya's citytrip : The Hague - part 3

'That sure was a nice snack' sighed Dunya. Lets take a rest at the Prison gate.

They walked further along the Court Pound.
The guy you see in the back is Johan van Oldenbarneveld.

'Who is he?'.. 'Jee, I don't know..'

Well okay, let's go to the Lange Voorhout square. It says in the tourist guide that there are a lot of trees on it.

Hmmmmm!! This silvery thing looks like it's edible!!!!

The silvery thing turned out to be an art piece and not that edible at all.

Here you can see Dunya posing in front of art that was a pile of grass (with a statue)

This cleary is an artist who appreciates the important things in life.

'Dunya! I'm getting tired! Aren't we finished yet?'

'No Suus, we haven't seen Queen's Beatrix's hutch yet. I've heard she lives here.'

Friday Video: I Geek Guinea Pigs

The Geek the Library campaign was made to let people know how important libraries are. In the campaign they have different humans telling about their (geeky?) hobbies and the role libraries play in it. This cute video features Butterscotch, a library pig, and one of her humans. The very cute girl Maddie.



Sigh.. did we mention our J is a librarian and that she went abroad for a week?  When she is away, she always manages to find guinea pigs.. I guess that we're doing the same ;-)

Have a nice wheekend!

Guinygirlz Photoshoot

We had our picture taken some weeks ago, slaves always do that around Woopy's birthday, this time it was already her 4th birthday! The others are now 2 years old (Lily and Daisy) and 0 years old (Roos is now 6 months old).
Slave would love to share our pigtures as she adores us...

Daisy

Lily a la Bing

Lily lying down

Lily looking up (typical 'lily-pose')
She always sticks her nose up like this after being petted.
It's like she is asking for more petting :)

Roos, I think she was never officially introduced (!)
This is our Agent in training, she is now as heavy as Woopy,
So it won't be long before she reaches a whole Kilo (1000 grammes)

Woopy
