[Gpdd] Rescue: New Piggies

[emartin]

Well, I went to my son's school yesterday to pick up a GP cage that his 
teacher gave him.  (I think he wants into the action of a GP now 
too!)  While I was loading it up in the Kia, a van pulled over and the 
driver said, "Hey, you want more guinea pigs?"

I am glutten for punishment...I knew that my husband would roll his 
eyes.  I have this thing for collecting animals that others don't 
want...especially sick or abused ones.  I asked why she was getting rid of 
them.  Her husband it threatening to let them loose as they moved them up 
from the BASEMENT this winter so they would not freeze and into their 
bedroom.  Apparently he doesn't like the wheeking and popcorning 
much.  So...I get two older females this weekend.

This makes five.  So much for giving Casper the new larger cage!  The two 
only come with a rubber-maid bucket, that is what they keep them in.  With 
cats here, that won't work...so since the two need to be together, poor 
Casper.  I need to work on another cage for her.  I tried to put her in 
with Cuddles on Thursday afternoon, but that didn't go so well.  They get 
along great all night on the floor, but when put into a cage together...I 
thought my hand would be torn open.  Luckily I used the pigloo to separate 
them and got the shrieking Casper out of there.  Pickles would love to have 
her, but I don't think I want babies as I don't know what I would do with 
them.  My bedroom is getting a tad small with all the cages now!  I also 
think I would have a horrible time trying to screen people to take them.

I can't wait to meet my new babies!
