TOPIC | My Guinea Pigs McFly and Yogi!

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

This thread is basically a dedication to the best roommate I've ever had! I'll try to post a picture of McFly daily, or every other day. (:

This is my first time living truly on my own, so the moment my family dropped me off, I went to pick out a roommate from PetSmart. I wanted a dog, but my complex doesn't allow them, so I went for the next best thing - a guinea pig. I named him McFly after George McFly from Back to the Future - he was so scared of everyone and everything when I first brought him home. But after weeks together, he's really warmed up to me! He even responds to his name now, and comes to me when I call him. He really likes to pose for pictures, too.

He's adorable! <3

I recently got a new guinea pig, as well - a (castrated) male for my two girls. It's real fun watching their group interactions, and quite fascinating. I only had females for a long time, and never realized how much natural behaviour they were missing out on.

I urge you to consider also getting another one. Guinea pigs are very social animals and a human will never be able to replace a partner of their own species.
