Tragedy at our house...

Our momma guinea pig was killed by a neighbor dog. We are so sad!
Looking on the positive side it has given our little family something to do together.
We are feeding the babies kitten milk (yes, I guess Focker was right, you can milk anything with teets) through little syringes.
The babies are seriously the cutest guinea pigs we've ever seen!
Here are a few pictures....

We are slowly introducing the dad to the babies. We got the dad for free. He is long haired and cool looking. You can see a picture of the mom in the previous post.

This is all four of them. Dave has named them after the Rat pack. Sammy, Joey, Frankie and Deano. They are all so unique!!!

This one has a tan face.

This one has a black face with a tan spot by its eye.

This one looks the most like the mom. It's body looks like half mom and half dad.
Here is David.
Here is Joey.


And Dave is holding the Runt that is the most unique. It's hair is curly!

Sorry to hear about the mama guinea pig. did she get lose somehow and wander into the neighbors yard? How fun for the boys to have pets.

Those are some seriously adorable little guineas! Oh, how I would love to hold one. I hope the little motherless "pigs" are doing well. Love you all!
