They are getting huge!

Izzy's two babies are growing daily and still very healthy. They will be checked by a vet this week to verify their sex. (EDIT: They are both males and were separated from Izzy.)

Charity Race

What is black and white and red all over? Nope! Not a newspaper. A Formula 1 black and white car ... on fire! [My boss owns and drives both NASCARs and Formula 1 cars. His car is the one featured on the poster for the event and the one featured at this link.]

12 baths ... enough!

She's loosing it! Too many baths at one time! Call the groomer STAT! [I decided to give the guinea pigs a bath and did them as I was cleaning their cages. It went smoothly but was rather time consuming.]

Bonding 101 ... again!

Who is it this time? I want to know! Wheek! [Bif and Rosie were put in the bonding cage and things were going well so I added Emma to the mix. She was really great for about 20 minutes or so then she decided to eliminate Rosie. She was escorted out of the cage; Bif and Rosie are still in the cage adjusting to each other.]

Why are there 2 guinea pigs in a box?

That's what I want to know! No more pigs in a box! Wheek! [I was contacted by a shelter asking if I could take two pigs. They were father and son and one had a skin problem that they could not resolve. I checked them out and it looks like the father (who is white) has mites. He has thinning air and scales on his back. Hopefully it's just mites and not fungus also. (A ringworm culture was run at the shelter and it was negative.) They both seem to be rather user-friendly.]
