We ended up getting a very sweet guinea pig yesterday!
She is 4 months old, and very nice and sweet. I love the noises she makes! My DH is building her a 3'x3' home for her right now. She will have plenty of room to run around and do popcorns! I have a feeling we will be getting her another female soon enough!

We named her Minnie!

cute i have a pig named moose. besure to handel her alot while shes young so shell be really friendly and keep her in a place where people are most of the time not up in a bedroom, they are very social animals and need interaction. and its good your getting a new cage because aquariums are not good for their respatory systems. she is reall cute! give her a baby carrot from me!

The popcorning is really funny, the first time ours did it, my DH thought she was having a seizure.

Baby GPs do this. Most adults stop, but we had one who always did this. Popcorning is jumping staight up in the air. If is really funny to see.

We had guinea pigs growing up. They are such great pets! Our black and white one (Midnight) was afraid of the dark. We had to keep a night light on near his cage. We would always know when we lost electricity in the middle of the night! And, the one about the dog who ate my homework? Nope - it was the guinea pig who ate my music! The other guinea pig - tan and white (Fluffernutter) was more like a dog. He was self-potty trained. We could leave the cage door open and he never made a mess outside the cage. If he was hungry, he would waddle over and squeak in front of the fridge. My dad loved the fact that if you talked on the phone for more than a couple of minutes, he would squeak so loud you had to hang up. He only did this when my sister or I were on the phone though. Wonder if dad taught him that one!

Enjoy!
