Hector and Who?

Look at him showing off his massive love nuggets.... oh wait, you haven’t told him they are in a jar somewhere 😂😂😂

Makes me realise just how quiet my two are these days though, the constant chatter is much less. Like any marriage that’s gone on a bit I guess, what is there to say except bicker over the best stuff and then him beg for a bit of nookie!

My Merry just chatters to himself all day, it's like he's giving himself a running commentary!

Your post has made me chuckle on two counts, the “love nuggets” and the ”vintage marriage reality” 😂😂😂😂😂
 
What a wonderfully uplifting thread.

Looking forward to hearing all about them and seeing lots of lovely pics!
 
I'm really missing these two! My house is so much quiet!

I had another bond to do yesterday (two older boars). I generally prefer boar/boar bonds to any others. It was a TEAS piggy and a clients piggy. I felt sure it would be a doddle! How wrong can you be! Within 5 mins the teeth chattering started and the chasing intensified. Within seconds they were launching at one another with mouths wide open! I tried to grab the TEAS piggy, who turned his attention from the other piggy to my hand. He shot into the air, sinking his teeth into my finger. I managed to get him into a pet carrier, before making a dash for the kitchen. As I ran from the log cabin into my kitchen, blood was pouring from my finger. There was blood all across my patio, my kitchen floor, splattered up the kitchen cupboards. I wrapped my finger and went back to the log cabin to check both piggies over, who were absolutely fine. My finger continued to bleed on and off all day and then last night, around 7 pm it started to swell. The pain was horrendous. My finger was red hot! Ibuprofen and ice packs helped a little and I've had a really bad nights sleep. This morning it's still very warm and swollen, but definitely an improvement on last night. Who ever knew guinea pig bonding was such a dangerous activity! I am supposed to be doing another bond today, but have had to postpone!

Oh no! Only one word to say Oven Glove! Poor you, hope the finger swelling goes down Debbie. After that bonding debacle with Posh, Ginger and Hector I’ve realised it’s never a forgone conclusion 😆 I thought that would be plain sailing and it was a pub brawl. But Hector found his lovely Kiki. They are racing around the cage and Kiki is giving him the runaround, she can clear his head at 50 mph! She should be called “speedy Gonzales“ never seen anything so fast 😆
Hope you finger is better soon x

Piggies should come with a health and safety warning!

Glad the newlyweds are still happy and enjoying life! Kiki is such a live wire!

Hope the finger heals quickly - sounds like a really nasty bite.

It's very deep! It's also made me feel very nervous about doing any more bonds. I've got to get over it, because animals can pick up on our emotions, so if they pick up on the fact that I'm anxious, it's less likely to work.

It's less painful and a little less swollen. It also doesn't feel as hot, as it was last night, although still warmer than rest of fingers.

Oh gosh hope it gets better soon. I used some thick ski/biker gloves and Posh bit really hard into my hand and it didn’t go through. the naughty piggies! I can imagine how you feel, it certainly scared me! I‘d never seen such aggression from guinea pigs before, a real eye opener!
