Cavy at the exhibition in Frankfurt

Yesterday I told you something about the exhibition in Frankfurt. Well, I saw a very nice and friendly guine pig there and fell in love from the beginning on. But this wonderfull and nice guinea pig was a female, and I have only males and so I haven’t any chance to take her with me. But look at the picture, what a nice guinea pig

Our guine pig Struppi plays with a piece of wooden

Our guinea pig Struppi needs often something to play. Otherwise he feel boring. So a few days ago he found a new toy: a little piece of wooden. This toy fly now very often during the air or he take it between his teeth and wipping around. Very funny to see.

New pictures from our guinea pigs

The boys are very alive once more and are also very drowsy at the same time. Jacky and Angel play their power-demonstration-games and since some days Angel sits with pleasure sometimes next to Amadeus in the basement. Amadeus seems to have a little fear of the guinea pig who is younger though than he, however, for it almost greater. Batida finds this, by the way, not at all witty that Jacky and now also Angel are interested in his beloved Amadeus. And thus it sometimes comes to small hunting-games, but, all in all, nothing wild or something that would not be normal in a buck group.

Amadeus and his green lips

Our cavies eat a lot of gras at the moment. Only at breakfast they want cucumber, carrot and hay. Amadeus is one of the cavies with manners. But the picture show you that Amadeus haven’t many manners, when he eat gras.

My first cavy

My first cavy I get with 10 years and his name was Bumy. He was a very confiding and lovely cavy. I found some pictures from him in an old photo album as I visited my parents last weekend. So I want to show you the cavy which laid the foundation of my love for this lovely and fascinating animals.

Jacky und Angel

Jacky and Angel can’t good with each other. Sometimes Jacky altercate with Angel a little bit. But on the other side they sitting next to the other and eating carrot without any problems. So I can’t take this behavier seriously. Because Amadeus and Batida were the same at the beginning and now they are best friends

Jackys discovery

From our 6 cavies three drink every day, the other three take liquid with the food only. Jacky, Batida and Amadeus didn’t drink from the water bottle the last years. But this have changed a few days ago.

Jacky played in the cage and saw the water bottle and played with it. And then he drank and he was very happy about his new discovery. Since this day he drink every day and a lot

News from our cavies

A few weeks ago our cavies were the first day in our cage in the garden. Since this day they enjoy the garden as soon as it is warm and nice for them. Jacky and Spike love the trip in the garden especially. For us it is a big joy to observe them when they play togehter, eat a lot or sleeping.

Our cavy Batida love it to spoon with other cavies

New story from our white Batida

When he came to us at the beginning he was a little devil and a real poison syringe. First he has hunted the brothers, then he has torn himself severely with Amadeus and also has shown the other two over and over again that he is here the boss. This went so far that everybody has ran away immediately, as soon as he has entered the upper level.

Except Amadeus, that meddlesome behaviour could not be impressed by Batidas and probably also an one either very thick friendship thereby originated between the both or passion -  In any case gives  Batida hardly way from Amadeus of his side.

Therefore, he has enjoyed also obviously to lie with Amadeus on the narrowest space in a soft igloo and to cuddle. The little one was quite dear-great from whole cuddling.

Yesterday then we have been surprised, why the soft melon is so full and seen that Batida with Spike sat close together in it, obviously contently. Again this happy expression in his eyes and to our surprise has Spike not as usual indignantly cheeped, but sat quite normally beside the white Batida.

A little cudle bear, our Batida.

Our cavy

Because of  some fans from our guinea pigs are here, which are not speek german, I want to give you some information about our funny animals in english.

Last year we bought two of them, Spike and Struppi. They are brothers and very cuddly. Some days before last New Years Eve our third cavy, Batida, was following. And this year in April our big cavy Amadeus arrived.

I introduce them now:

Spike, our cavy with his wide cheek is a very friendly and cuddly guinea pic. He sleep and eat a lot and has a comfortable character. If Batida anger him, he beep very loud to chase Batida. But it doesn’t work

Struppi, his brother is friendly too and he love it to sleep in his cuddle house.

Batida is a rascal and very lively. All the day he make jokes and run through their big cage.

Amadeus is a Coronet cavy and have long hair. He is very tame and allways stays calm in every situation. He often play with Batida. If he is relaxing he strech his feets out.
