How did you find out about the forum?

I walked into guinea pig family 28 (now 32) piggies and 4 rabbits. Decided I wanna help with organization and started making The Big Book of Guinea Pigs that would contain 2 pages per pig with little picture, name and all the info I can get (age, diet notes, medical notes, weight table, fav snacks etc.) At the end of the book I wanted to add a table with veggies that we use and all the calcium/phosphor/sugar/vit c/etc info - so I searched google for info and it showed me a thread with a table made by one of the members so I decided to check if my table was any good and then I saw how nice the forum is and developed questions that the forum helped me with. And now whenever I think about anything guinea pigs related I'm just going on forum ☺️
 
I found this forum just on the Google search engine. I can't remember the specific question I asked, but I do remember being impressed by the knowledgeable, kind answers from people who actually cared about our precious piggies. I saved this forum to my phone's homescreen and bookmarked it on my laptop. I continued to browse as a guest for a while. With every passing day, with every search, every thread I read, I was more and more impressed with this community. And that's why I joined - I wanted to be a part of this knowledgeable, kind community who shared my passion for guinea piggies. I continue to be impressed by this amazing forum everyday. I finally found my people - Piggy People.

Many of us also lurked for a while before formally joining. It really is a very supportive community both for our piggies and for the humans, too.
 
I learned about the forum from finding really useful info on it when doing google searches... I joined to start a thread to ask for advice on a sick pig (who's getting better now). :)

Long story I found 6 guineas in my garden never having them before I am going every where for advice . I sore a picture of a cuy guinea and I think I may have one or two .
At the moment I'm trying to get friends with them it's been three weeks since I found them and we are trying to heard them and catch them so we can make them safer . At the moment they are living under my shed but I want them in doors before winter comes and as I don't know how long it will take to catch them we are starting sooner rather than later. We are going to try and corral them and put the hutches in there them move them slowly over

I hope you can catch them

Welcome to the forum. You have lovely piggies. Are they related? They look very similar.
 
I found this one time through google, and I found it a place full of really good advice. I ended up browsing this forum for years without signing up. I finally decided to today, since I just got 3 new boars today, and I'm definitely going to need a couple questions answered throughout this journey :) Not to mention that it's a great resource for piggy care, cute pics, and cool ideas 👍
 
I got my first guinea pig in May of this year and got a lot of useless info from the pet shop that I felt was wrong, so I jumped on google and started browsing through the forum and created an account and started asking questions and boy was I happy to find you guys ☺️

I Hope you continue to find the forum helpful.
My piggies’ lives improved no end after I found the forum.
 
I just wish that guinea pigs were treated as they are in the UK, in the US they are just rodents, classroom pets, to be put in a small cage and sat in a child’s room and not properly taken care of 😔
