Countdown 3.2.1. Three Piggies

2 sleeps to go. in fact all being well in 48 hours we have met the girls and they be on way to their "Forever Home". :luv:

The girls are now in their countdown too. They are looking forward to meeting you both and teaching you how to be their perfect slaves x
 
I went into pets@home today to buy the new girls some timothy hay. I was going to look at new tubes, water bottles, carrot cottages etc... I had such an awful experience I nearly had a tantrum so I had to leave before I was rude :rant:. The shop assistant asked what pet I had, so I excitedly said "soon I'll have 3 girly guinea pigs" she then tutted and said.. "oh no, we don't recommend having 3 together. Only even numbers of guinea pigs should be together." I said but these are 3 girls.. She said..."no not 3 girls, bad idea".. By this point I was trying to keep my cool so I asked her why she had such a sad looking one all on its own in there. I was cross & upset so I had to walk away & leave the store. :cen:. I bought 1 bag hay...sorry girls I'll get you some more stuff from somewhere else. View attachment 74301

And this is a perfect example of why pet shops should only be allowed to sell pets that they are fully trained and experienced in. I would like to see a certification process where people acquire the right information and skills for specific pets.

I’ve never heard such rubbish about odd numbers. Makes my blood boil. I have a fabulous trio of sows. I’ve also had a trio of 2 sows and a neutered boar. All worked fabulously.

Well as a child, time was not allowed to travel faster and as a adult not allowed to travel any slower. But for once I wish it would then I get to the girls and watch them settle into Pedro's Palace and our home again become a hay collection place. 1 Sleep to go. x

Just catching up on all of this and I am so excited for both of you, plus your gorgeous trio of girlies. :hug:
They won't believe their luck when they finally come home and settle into their marvelous palace.
And if I'd seen this a bit earlier I would have sent you a small box of guinea pig poops to scatter round you home and help get you back into piggy ownership mood :))

One the subject of piggy ownership mood, I could always send some hay for you to scatter around your carpet!
 
That'll be the same shop chain that has sold three boars, pregnant females, sick piggies, and too small cages to numerous members of this forum, and actually asked me if I was putting Bobby and Bailey in with my other three boars, and how nice it would be for them all to be friends? HA, chance'd be a fine thing. lol
SHEER IGNORANCE!
 
I forgot to mention @Flutterby in above message. not thro wanting too. But we owe that lady more than most. She went above the normal. :luv:opening up her home and sharing her piggies and knowledge which has got us here. Ruth Thank You. That lady is great. She even gave us her car. :nod: long story.

Aww thank you David, those are lovely words x
 
SO SO excited for you guys now. I can't wait for you to be able to bring them home. You will just be the absolute best owners and the girls will never want for anything again.

Can't wait to hear all about your adventures at the cavy corner event on Sunday.
 
Thank you for asking. She's doing ok. The vet was pleased with her as her tumour hasn't grown 5 months post diagnosis. We're still taking things one day at a time xx
That's great Claire. Course each day is great and well done all round. if she's not suffering then brilliant. We very nervous about picking up the girls. . We been reassured by foster mum we be ok. I want the girls to be happy as we all want our piggies to be. xx
