News from Batida

Our Batida have many trouble with Jacky at the moment. Because Jacky want to have our Amadeus alone, he chase Batida  away and this in a harsh way. So Batida had some little injury the last days, but nothing too bad. Well, today we had Batida and Amadeus on our Couch and give them the possibility to cuddle with each other without Jacky.

Our Brothers

Well, all our guinea pigs like eacht other (okay, Batida and Jacky aren’t big friends), but our brothers Spike and Struppi are the most lovely of all. So they like it to lie together in their cuddle cottage. Sweet, aren’t they?

News from our guinea pigs

I want to give you some news from our 9 guinea pigs. At the moment it’s very hot in Germany, but our guine pigs have a climated room with 24°C. So they have a big advantage compared to other guinea pigs.

Amadeus

Our coronet mix had a meeting with the vet for grooming a few weeks ago. After this we cut some of his very long hair and now he have a very “fashion” haircut

Batida

Our white guinea pig eat the hole day and enjoy it. Often he chase Jacky away to protect “his” Amadeus. Well, he love this guinea pig and is very jealous.

Jacky

Our Jacky change the floor of the cage very often and enjoy it to annoy Batida. But all in all he is very friendly, even to Angel.

Angel

Our brown-black guinea pig is very shy and hesitate very often to get some food. Furthermore he makes very funny sounds as soon as I came to feed them.

Spike

Our friendly and cute guinea pig Spike meditate every day. He want to cuddle all the day and is so nice. Very often you have to laugh because of his face with his black cheeck.

Struppi

The brother of Spike lies very often in his cuddly bet and relax. Or he beg with funny sounds for food.

Mozart

Hi is very self-confident and curious at all.

Snoopy

This new one is very shy and often run away from us. But as soon as he is sitting on our hand, he like it to cuddle with us. He have to visit the vet for grooming soon.

Schoko

He was ill the last weeks but now he is health again and very nice. He is curious and like to observe us.

And here you can see some new pictures of our guinea pigs. Enjoy it

Our guinea pig Schoko

Our little cavy Schoko (the german short word for chocolate) was a little bit ill. He had a cold and we went to the veterinary. There we get some herb juice for the little one. The first days he don’t want to drink the medicine, but since two days he can’t get enough of that. And now he feels more better than the last days.

Like twin brothers

Mozart is a very self-confident and curious guinea pig. And he looks like a twin brother of Amadeus. Amazing their similarity, isn’t it?

The growth of Angel

Oh wow, today I searched for a picture and found old ones from our funny guinea pig Angel. Look at them, the first one was a half year ago. Impressive his fast growth.

Villa de Luxe 2

Well, our 3 little guine pigs are growth very fast and so we decided to buy a big new cage. And so I ordered one with 180 x 75 cm. Today the cage arrived and we had to change the facility in our living room. Now the 6 old guinea pigs have a look on the balcony and the youngster a direct look on the tv So they are very happy about their new and very big home, Villa de Luxe 2.

What’s up with…

Some of you ask yourself what our 6 other boys do so. During the last days I have informed primarily about our new three little ones. However, now I would like to inform you also once more about our 6 other guinea pigs.

Now, Struppi has in the last time his “I am offended” a phase. Then he fluffs up himself always on.  After Steffen has taken him, nevertheless, some days from too many soft unities to itself, Struppi is contented again.

Spike still waddles cheerfully through the area, eats and meditates diligently. Also his assurance has grown, he does not let himself pinch any more the so dearly loved carrot by Jacky now in the morning. Instead, he starts more and more to the counterattack and pinches to Jacky very much astonished about that the carrot.

Angel lives his motto “Keep cool” and sleeps very much a lot. If one says his name, he lifts only briefly the head to spread out afterwards immediately again absolutely flatly in the cage. In the morning he waits always completely relaxed till one to him the cucumber and carrot directly before the nose lays during other wildly around can hop and hardly expect it.

Amadeus is looked by Batida and relaxed also a lot. Besides, of course the feet are stretched far forwards or he squeeze into the smallest small house and completely lies down on the side. Every now and then he stamps with the feet and squeak as moved if in the morning the feed is brought too slowly.

Batida is still hard fallen in love in his Amadeus and leaves him only every now and then alone to change short the floor and to eat on top the feed that other have not used. Therefore, he also nicely holds his fight weight and cheeps quietly if one brings him in the soft igloo to the play room or on the couch.

Jacky: Our small blokes is fit and cheerful, as usual, demonstrates now and again compared with hinge his position and performs Amadeus society if Batida is just a floor on top.

Like you  see it goes well to boys completely and one experiences every day a little bit new with them. It never becomes dull and one has to laugh really always a little bit. Enclosed still some new photos of the boys.

New pictures from Snoopy and Mozart

Today I had the chance to take some pictures from Mozart (left) and Schocko, our new cavies.

Again new guinea pigs

We long have told nothing about the new boys, but now since the guinea pig’s exhibition in Frankfurt we have 3 other sweet guinea pigs. 1 rosette goat and 2 Sheltie. The boys are still quite shy, but this will still lie down absolutely. Therefore, it was also difficult to  shot  a few photos, however, I have take some but they are not the best ones.

Snoopy

This small Sheltie is the oldest and now 3 month-old. Though he is shy, but also it likes cuddling and likes on the hand to sit.

Mozart

He looks like the twin brother of Amadeus and also behaves in such a way. He “blubble” cheerfully before himself, is woken very much and lively and is not at all shy. Best he runs the ramp high and under it or hops joyfully by the area.

Schocko

This lovely boy has red eyes and a chocolate fur with a little white, brown and black. He is very shy and at the same time quick little fellow who waits every morning with a sweet look. Unfortunately, he is so quick that one gets him only hard on a photo.

Take a break

Our guinea pigs are really very good teachers to live particularly with regard to the kind. While outdoors on this Saturday already again all pensioners make her lawn mowers ready to be launched and also the remaining population tries to work a little bit, one can go well the guinea pigs and simply rest. It is also difficult for me very much, however, just in thus nice weather, nevertheless, we should on occasion simply make sometimes a break and scoop a little energy.

News from Jacky

Jacky our small bloke can very like cuddling and dear. Mostly, nevertheless, he challenges with pleasure Angel to a small duel and is as for the rest very self-confident. Struppi lay recently completely relaxes in his soft bag as Jacky laid simply on top. First Struppi has protested, then gone on sleeping. A sight which one does not receive so quickly probably any more.

Struppi und Spike

A few weeks ago we bought a new cottage for our guinea pigs. The old one was very damaged. The new now have a big window which Struppi likes very well. Because the brothers Struppi and Spike often sit together in the big house and since yet Struppi hadn’t the possibility to look outside. Now he can watch the other guinea pigs from the inside and he likes it as you can see on the picture

cavy exhibition in Germany - Frankfurt

The last two days we were at the guinea pig exhibition in Frankfurt. It was a big exhibition with over 900 guinea pigs. We stay there with our cavy calendar. It was very nice to meet so many guine pig friends and of course, guinea pigs. The organisation was very good, the people from the administration were very helpfully and friendly to us.

The only thing I was shoked was the issue, that you had the feeling to be on a bazar. Because a lot of guine pigs were for sale and in this area a lot of people standing there and buy the guinea pigs as fast as you can look. The guinea pig grower didn’t look for their sale guine pigs or see them off. That was a little bit sad because I had the feeling that the grower only want that their cavies are sold and the haven’t interest which people are the new owner.

But all in all it was very nice to meet so many guine pig fans.
