Introducing Rosita the Guinea Pig

Posted in Family, and Photography

Rosita White Crested guinea pigProject 365 – #160

Guinea pigs are highly social animals, so they do best when there are at least two of them together.  When Munchkin adopted Choco, there was only one guinea pig, so we’ve been watching local boards waiting to see if any guinea pigs came up for adoption.  Yesterday, a girl from 4-H posted on craigslist that she had guinea pigs that needed a new home.

We emailed back and forth for some time.  She offered to bring the piggies for Munchkin to examine.  We came home with Rosita.  That little tuft of white fur called out to Munchkin.  Because she was housed with a male guinea pig prior to coming to us, she may turn out to be pregnant.  If that’s the case, then we’ll have to figure out a different set-up for our guineas down the road.

For now, they’re enjoying playing together.  Munchkin is having fun playing with and showing off both of her new guinea pigs, and she’s working hard to pay off the Bank of Mom and Dad. **grin**
