Music from epidemic sound.
my guinea pigs think that me moving around in my sleep means i'm getting up to feed them💀
Hahah yeah same
ARMYYY
@Jungkook’s left hand Lol YESSS
Guinea pigs lijk this vidio
🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹🐹😘😘😘
One of my piggies, Scribble, figured out that if he walks to the fridge during free roam time, I’ll take pity on him and sneak him some veggies 😂
Lol
Lol mine do that to!
omg haha scribble! has ty caught on yet?
I have one named bean he will stare at me till I give him veggies!
Awww scribbles is so cute! Ps. I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!!!!!!
Guinea pig: sees hay nicely stacked Also Guinea pig: no.
@@scriptingjonster1735 bruh
I put it in there hay cart then they just knock it over
More accurate:spreads the entire thing around, making a 5 foot circle of hay
why's this so true lmao. i'll give her hay in a bowl, mix some pellets, some lettuce, and then she'll tip it over two seconds later.
@@Valcerv and immediately starts begging for more.
Me: *Trying to sleep* Guinea pigs : We dont do that here
For real tho
😂😆
True dat 😂😂😂
kzhead.info/sun/jbhxddqlh4aVqIE/bejne.html
🤣🤣
the waking up in the morning is totally accurate, they make great alarm clocks though at night the water bottles are so loud
Wws
Wwss
SO TRUE!
Omgggg I can never sleep with them using their water bottles
IKR
Free roaming reality: pee and poop EVERYWHERE 😂😂
Null kreativität Thats one thing that I really appreciate about ferrets’ evolutionary habits. They only poo and pee in corners. I had this problem when I let my mice free roam in a controlled area. xD
You can train them with a litter box but they still might have the occasional accident
My guinea pig is so old it would be very hard to potty train her after 3 years of what she used to, i cuddle with her but always expect to have to change my shirt an hour later LMAO
@@Anonymous-bm8bd aww 😂 thats cute and funny at the same time lol
I know right
As someone with rabbits I feel the hay part so hard. Also no matter how clean you try to keep it, it gets EVERYWHERE.
I got a rabbit and can definitely agree with that!
Accurate and socks track it everywhere in the house. We have 2 rabbits and 2 guinea pigs
Yeah my last pair died in 2020 and I'm STILL finding hay and the odd poop 😂
thesr animals arent worth it
The waking up sound is better than not having a pet and hearing weird sounds at night or in the morning when you’re home alone. At least you know it’s your pet and not someone who broke in
It’s comforting knowing theirs another living being in your home especially if you live alone
@@analogkid4957yup
This is so true. We have cats, so if I heard any of the noises without having them in the house, it'd scare the crap out of me. At least we can say "probably just the cats", unless proven otherwise. 😂 It's oddly comforting.
One of the reasons I’m getting a couple!!
@@-Panna- Our piggies used to stand up and scratch the glass to demand attention. Then when our last guinea pig died and the cage was empty for a while we both heard the same sound we associated with the scratching every now and then. Apparently not all sounds are your pet after all😅
I love how all the expectation clips are shorter because they can’t get the guinea pigs to behave like that long enough 🤣
Loll
@Hayden Hamill what is 😐
Hi
Loll sehr Sūß
So true😂🤣
I like how reality is so much more different then what we see in the camera
Oh God, not everyone is a english native speaker 😀
Lucie Burkertová exactly let them be
@u cant escape the fandom Not everyone can speak/type English fluently. Don't be ignorant.
I felt the waking up one on a spiritual level.
The sounds they make are really cute until you’re trying to sleep
Agreed
My only issue when I had a guinea pig was how the poop never ever stopped. You hold them for 30 seconds and there is 20 turds for you to pick up.
@@sophiahickson9633 Oh mine did lol. They also would just leave a trail of poop 💩
That might be because of stress, but who knows. Maybe your guinea pig just poops a lot.
@@MT-nh5eg Have you ever had a guinea pig? I used to show them at the state fair. I owned and raised a few litters. They are poop machines!
oh my god tell me about it, i have a large comforter meant specifically for my pigs to play on outside of their cage but i have to wash that thing like twice a week from all the pee and poo they get on it! i love them to death but it’s insane lol
@@joeyjohnston904 I wish there was a way to litter train them, but then they would just be stuck in the litter box all day because they poop every other step they take hahaha
Guinea pig owner: *Sleeps* Guinea pigs at 1am: WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEK
So true 👁️👄👁️
Hannah Kenyon 69 nice
also: *loudly drinking from water bottle*
NOT TRUE! they arent night animals... they are waking me up when sun is rising. If your piggie(s) screams at night its something wrong...
@@frenzyglee666 actually a guinea pig only sleeps 4 hours a day. They take lots of 5-10 min naps during the day, night, or when they can, due to their prey nature.
When i was younger and me and my mother for our first guinea pigs, she saw them popcorning and called the vet because she thought that they had epilepsy!!!😂😂😂
What's popcorning?
@@No-One20 Popcorning is a term used to describe when a guniea pig jumps kicking it's legs or twisting in mid air randomly, they can do it when they're scared but mostly from pure joy! A Popcorning guinea pig is good sign of health 👌
@@cloewilliams8408 heh with rabbits is called doing a binky! Its so cool too see what other people call it for other pets
Hahahhaha mine does that too, my mom thinks she has ticks 😂😂😂😂 It's so cute when they do their kittle popcorn jumps
lol
"wheres nugget?" "disappeared" *immediately gets up* "nUGGET"
My guinea pig pumpkin actually just passed away August 10th I'm proud of myself for getting through this video without crying..
Aw, we had our second piggie Cookie pass last May at 6.5 years old. We got a new pair of bonded males in July which is nice because Cookie and our first piggie Gold fought and had to have separate cages. Cookie was a well traveled pig, he came with us on an RV trip and crossed Lake Michigan with us on a ferry :) How I wish guinea pigs lived a little longer on average
Aww rip pumpkin :( My guinea pig Coco passed away a few years ago as well
Rest in peace 😔 mine died aswell :(
really? This kinda stuff usually helps me get over it, I’ve never had guinea pigs but the ones I really wanted got adopted and the way u got over it was by watching videos and looking at pictures
Awwwww 🥺 sorry for your loss
Guinea pigs when their owners try to sleep: YALL NOT GONNA GET SO SLEEP CAUSE OF ME
Are they partially nocturnal?
No they just only ever take naps and never really sleep
@@rogue7723 no
kzhead.info/sun/pLtsnbCtpYlqjWg/bejne.html
lmao 😂
I love when guinea pigs sit on top of their huts and ruin them it’s hilarious
I can’t even open a bag of cereal without Rambo, harassing me lmao
Rambo lol, nice
2:56 I like how the time stamp on the video nearly matches the time on the phone.
The other reality for hay, at least for me: having to vacuum my carpets every day after refilling my boys' hay.
My thing for hay is the expectaion when i open it but then reality come to punch me in the face
For me it's constantly sweeping my tile floors lol
hay cuts rumba rubber brush... dont use rumba if you have any strand of hay lying around XD
Yes I feel that. But I usually let my pigs roam around and they eat some of what is on the floor
Rabbits are worse ahaha
When the guinea pig sounds at 2:46 went off, my guinea pigs went crazy!
hahaaha :))
Same lol
Me too! Bad idea to watch this in the pet room lol! 🤪
So did mine!
Same! 😀
This is so recognizable, especially the sounds at night! They always seem to pick a fight at 03:00, or get spooked by absolutely nothing and sound the alarm.
I feed my guinea pigs a variety of different veggies everyday. Fresh day and grass always available. My guinea pigs: “I chew toilet papers”
How do they get into the washroom? You let them in or eyes know how to open a door
@Levi Ackerman No, they have a separate room to themselves. Sometimes I use toilet paper to wipe their puddles of pee, but as soon as they see the toilet paper they come running. I seriously don’t know why XD
@@blixxae967 lol do you let them eat the pee filled toilet paper?
@Levi Ackerman No lol I block them with one hand
@@blixxae967 oh ok
It's really true, everyone thinks that keeping Guinea Pigs is easy and cute and funny. By the way, I love this vid.
So true
Due to having them when I was real little, I knew how hard it was. But I also have the mindset of all animals are my children. So I’m thinking that, it’ll all be worth it because I get to see them grow up, and they’re all different because of their personalities and it’s so adorable! I love my little babies!
They are very high maintenance sometimes. Especially skinny pigs. They are hairless and require a lot more warmth and a lot more food so they can regulate their body temperature. But I love my little guys!
Its cute and funny but probably not easy
You’re wrong on two parts. Guinea pigs are cute and funny, but such a pain to take care of. They need so much more than most people think. But I love my piggies
My guinea pigs are in my room and whenever I move my leg I hear: EEK EEEK EEEK EKK EKEKK EEEEEEK EEEEK
same!! i can’t even open a granola bar without my youngest SCREAMING
@@dionneodaine6326 same I bring my youngest Guinea pig in and when I went to give them water my youngest Guinea pig screams and it's almost like it's waking up my brother's 😳😂3am alarm clock
I can’t go near the fridge or my girl- EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE *Stop it pixie*
Fr sameeee I literally just move a little and they start yelling 😔
Samee and she follows me everywhere while screaming and climbing me 😭 who let her be that cute
My expectations were pretty much met when I got my Guinea Pigs. I thought they'd not be as smart, cute, easy to train or versatile as pets like rats but easier to get permission for from my parents. They lived up to all of that. They are still great of course. As far as rodent pets go they get bronze rank after rats and rabbits.
Rabbits aren't rodents
I used to love shopping delivery day!!! The Guinea pigs knew what day it was too. They would here the rattling of the carrier bags being brought up by the delivery guy. They could smell the pack of hay. They knew exactly which bags had the veggies fruit and salad in ....it was always a race between them and us...but we loved it .
You: **trying to sleep** Guinea pigs: imma ruin this girls night... Also the piggy’s: *WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKKKKK*
It's my dog instead of my little piggys
Same
My cat
Yes every night!!
Adrienne Margareth they are loud
My guinea pig while I’m watching this: WHEEEEK WHEEEEK
it’s cuy cuy not wheek wheek
Wait your guinea PIG so you have only one??????
Captain YEE is that a problem ?
@@youtubehere6604 yes yes yes it definitely is its animal cruelty and in most countries illegal
Captain YEE i meant i have only one guinea pig should i get him a friend
The first night I had my guinea pigs I thought they were escaping!
More expectations that aren't always realities: Expectation: "Guinea pigs are excellent beginner pets for children! They are way less work than a cat or dog." Reality: They are actually more difficult than they look, and they can easily be stressed out by inexperienced children. Expectation: "Guinea pigs don't poop where they eat! Why would they do that? They just go in corners or in their litter boxes." Reality: There is literally nowhere that you can't find a guinea pig poop, even when they're litter-trained. Expectation: "Let's get two guinea pigs and just hope that they'll get along! After all, they are sociable creatures!" Reality: Assuming that two guinea pigs will get along fine is like assuming that a cat and a dog will be best friends. Expectation: "Let's get a Mrs. Guinea pig and a Mr. Guinea pig!" Reality: More babies than you can handle. Expectation: "Let's just get two male guinea pigs or two females! That way, we won't end up with babies!" Reality: Some females and especially males just aren't compatible. Choose your guinea pigs wisely. Expectation: "Let's just neuter or spay our guinea pigs! That way, we won't end up with babies!" Reality: Neutering and especially spaying guinea pigs can be dangerous, and won't stop males from chasing females around. Expectation: "Guinea pigs are just rodents, and they don't live very long." Reality: Actually they can live over 8 years. Expectation: "Guinea pigs can live over 8 years? That means that we'll have our beloved guinea pigs for a very long time!" Reality: Sadly, that's just not always the case. Guinea pigs can just get sick and die when they look healthy. And believe me, it's traumatizing. It really is. :(
Yes, oh so true. All of this. The guinea pig health thing is especially the most painful. I consider myself a knowledgeable and responsible guinea mama and yet I have had several guinea pig deaths over the years, and every single one of them was completely unexpected and sudden. I just lost one of my two girls a few days ago and although I took her in to the vet the morning after I noticed she did not eat the evening before, less than 48 hours later she was gone.
@@Lori-jm9cm and no one knows why they die?
@@aleaciaball6932 Sometimes yes, Aleacia, the vet will know, but often by the time a guinea pig shows signs of illness that are recognizable as such by owners, even if diagnosed, it can be too late. If a guinea pig doesn't eat, due to not feeling well, in a VERY short time this can be fatal all by itself, due to GI stasis which would be a secondary problem, when possibly the initial one could have been treated successfully. And for lots of people, particularly new owners because guineas are very different , between not seeing signs in time, to waffling on whether it's necessary, to worrying about the expense, and one of the worst, not being able to find a vet who sees guinea pigs AND has an opening immediately, lots of times there is too long a time before they are seen.. I knew what I was doing and still lost my girl, and tho I have 2 different options for care and both are good, she died and I never got a satisfactory answer. Could have been pneumonia, or it could have been a tumor, x-ray inconclusive. To be honest I'm very much struggling with that explanation still. It has been a heartbreaking experience, being a guinea pig owner, because I knew what I was doing and gave them great homes, vet care, and still had very traumatic and sudden loses of several of mine over the years. I did not ever breed or mate my guinea pigs, so that was never a factor. But trust me, have IN ADVANCE, a vet who knows guinea pigs WELL, be aware of the cost because SMALLER PET DOES NOT EQUAL SMALLER VET BILL, and learn all you can before you get a guinea pig. ALSO to add to the list above. A happy healthy pig needs a cage at least 3 times the size of a pet store cage Vitamin C vitamin C CRUCIAL and not drops in water. CalciumAND phosphorous content in fruit and veggies Learn what's good, not good and also what fruit veg and other foods should NEVER be fed. Alfalfa hay, only for young pigs and pregnant ones. Then switch to Timothy hay PELLETS oddly, many pellets are made with primarily Alfalfa which again , not suitable for most pigs over 6 months. But they don't say "for young guinea pigs" straight out. Again, a lot to learn to take best care and still they are not going to have the long lives you want them to, much of the time. Educate yourself and know that they are awesome but messy, delicate and require patience. Also not one you should just fill a water bottle, throw a huge bowl of food in and leave for the weekend either.
Two guinea pigs. They had a litter of three (healthy), then daddy pig got mommy pig AND daughter pig pregnant, for 2 additional litters. One litter had 4 stillborns and one survivor (named Lucky, of course). Other litter was 4 little piglets. So within 6 months we went from 2 to 10 pigs. Four were given away; of the rest, they all died within 2 years, leaving the final pig - Lucky - to live on alone for another three years. It was a good experience but we didn’t do free-range or carpeted cages (yuck) - instead wood chips which had to be cleaned out weekly.
If I wait under here long enough I'll get food What a smart piggie
I have 3 piggies in my laundry area and we I open the fridge they automatically think its for them also: last night I had a nightmare that I stepped on my guinea pig and his face was flat and I woke up and had to hug the all before I went to sleep
What a nice dream......
Awwww
I would react the same way!
@@DailyGamesRadar yeah that flat face was extremely cute, with all the blood and all :D
Uncle Sam thats sadists have u tried going to the mental hospital thats right
I love the “2:56 AM cam”, how you cut the footage and the angles you used. It portrays the random night noises of the piggies really well.
I'm so glad my daughter choice rats in the end. I was not looking forward to having to wear noise cancelling headphones to bed 🤣
4:02 Sylvester: i am just as shocked as you are
Lol
Little Adventures: Who would want food at 2:56 in the morning?! Piggies: OH BOY 2:56 AM
Not Lulu!
Is this a spongebob refence??? GOLD
@@dallinseager1635 yep
It’s weird that this is an accidental time stamp, that fits perfectly
Love the way you allow them to roam around the house , our 2 do the same and it's great .
Theres always that one guinea pig in cages that steals the hiding spots ✨
The 3am wake up calls...🤣🤣🤣 My son just told me he has a crazy Guinea Pig alarm clock. 🤣🤣
My guinea pig: Expectation: Teddy running around, pop-corning on the carpet during floor time. Reality: Lays down on the carpet and sleeps
does he have a friend? He could be bored without one lol
They're like accordions.
Your piggies are like little dogs running around I love it🥰
THE HAY PART IS SO TRUE! I’ll literally be sitting there struggling to pull out the hay and only end up pulling it off in small chunks 😭😭
Guinea Pig Behavior Expectation: "Let's be BFF!" Reality: *"no u"*
I swear the hay expectation had me dying on how true that is!🤣
My brain is exploding of a cuteness overload
yeah. my 3 boys thoughts at 2 am " you know what would be fun, having a fight for no reason other than to wake mom up. yep that's what I'm going to do." me wakes " please stop I'm sleeping". my pigs "I don't care" *continues fighting*
Me Sleeping: My bigger Guinea Pig "Sleeping": *My bed frame creaking a little when I roll over at 5 in the morning* My smaller Guinea Pig: FOOD!FOOD!FOOD!FOOD!FOOD!
I feel bad for you, my guinea pigs don't wheek when I move around only when I'm close to them lol
I luckily am good at sleeping well and dont wake up easily, but if im awake at anytime during night, even the slightest move and she starts going crazy for food lmfao
Oh my god 😂 yes, everything absolutely, especially waking us up with squeaks. But I love it really, and I miss it when things are quiet.
3:19 is exactly why I switched from a bottle to a water dish (that & they kept leaking) - if you can find one with a lip that curves inwards & a wide enough base it’s basically tip proof 😎
When the pillow dropped after he/she went under it they went like: oop
The free roam expectation is the reality with bunnies. My bunnies are always sitting on my shoulder, walking on my laptop, jumping against my legs, running circles around me etc... they even lick me like a dog 😂
So they like walking around and instead of being in a cage
I thought my guinea pigs were the only ones who “ remodeled “ there cage!🤣
One of mine outsmarted me so he doesn't to even move anymore. He pulled his house and food bowl over next to the water bottle so he doesn't have to move to go anywhere
Nope me too I clean the cage... put the hideys in position.. two seconds later on of the houses is flipped over and the other has been nudged to the corner on their cage
Nope. Oreo *always* put his hidey house in a different location. Every time.
Me: buys my guinea pigs a chew able house think it will last the a year Guinea Pigs: * Sees new house * TIME TO FEAST. literately this is there 2 house in 6 months and i need to bye them a new one soon
@@kimetheus 😂😂
For the water bottle tapping, a dot of velcro will do wonders :) ❣ these critters look so happy and well loved.
A couple you missed that I really love, the 2am 3am 4am bird noise, the zoomies at any and all times if the day & night and the rumble strutting constantly.
I was surprised that they have such unique personalities! I got them because I wanted a pet for the apartment but didn't have time or space for a dog or cat, and thought they would be mostly easy to take care of and feed and didn't expect much more - but they are not only so much fun to watch and interact with, they have such unique personalities and you get so attached to them because no two guinea pigs are quite the same!
You: *snores* Piggy: Im trying to sleep if u havent noticed! You: *continues to snore* Piggy: *evil grin* Piggy: WHEEEEEEEEKKK
I love your piggies 🐹💕🍎 and your videos. I always watch a few when I first wake up to get me going in a happy way. Thank you for them!
I'm doing my best for my first time taking care of guinea pigs. I treat them as my children (though I don't have any 😂) They're easily startled, but so far they are getting use to some of the noises produced by my movements, and they've started liking me too by liking and smelling my hand. They're definitely hard to take care but it's definitely worth it!
Whenever i put my guinea pig on the floor so he can walk around. He just sits in freeze until i put him in hid cage😂😭
Same lol
He needs more human interaction then It means he is scared of you I also noticed u said Guinea pig [like you have just one] Guinea pigs get very lonely on there own and either need a friend or constant attention from another human
@@lilymae5662 Yeah i know but it was 4 months ago... We have been training and stuff with him, so he isnt scared of me anymore:)
@@lilymae5662 and what if we had two guinea pigs and then one died? :(
@@michaelavachalova6579 That’s sad... :(
If I get up for the restroom in the middle of the night I have to be extra quiet... If they hear me moving around they think it's breakfast time and start screaming and zooming around. Doesn't matter if it's 1am. My footsteps mean breakfast. Sigh.
😂😂😂
Maybe inching on the floor might help?
So it's like having a baby
I loved my guinea pig wheeking int he morning. When I was going to bed however I’d have to creep. The littlest bit of noise and the fog horn started 😂😂😂 Hearing them from another room when you open the fridge is another thing I love about them. If they lived for longer or just never passed I’d have them all but I can’t do the heartbreak 🥲
Love all things, the hay is so accurate I've gotten so many hay slivers I wear rubber gloves now to grab it all 🤣
Some one: “ so how many piece like should I give my guinea pigs per day?” Nugget: 10.
More like unlimited 😂
The "If i sit under the table for long enough, someone will have to feed me" part is so accurate lmaoo
Expectations: asthectic nice piggys Reality: poops and pees everywhere and demands for food as soon as they come across u
I can't belive how real it is. I felt so much represented. LoL! THE HAY! THE CLEANING! THE AMAZING WAKING UP NOISE! Love it all, though. Now let's arrange an Guinepig Olimpigs!
They run around at night and squeak. But I’ve gotten used to falling asleep with their loudness haha 😂. They are SO worth it :)
4:50 Nugget was like: *SNATCHED*
HELP ME! My guinea pigs found my fridge-
Your on your own pal my guinea pig just ate my entire fridge 😔✌️
That cushion remaining vertical juuuust long enough to make you really "appreciate" the peestains before it slooooowly keeled over was comedy gold
Hey Little Adventures, So about yesterday my guinea pig had passed away. And I just wanna say that I love your channel and it helped me and my guinea pig! I even named my puppy after one of your guinea pigs! (Lumi). And I just want to say keep going and never give up, Your channel is so useful and helpful and entertaining to watch. I’m looking forward to seeing what you post next! Have a nice day!
❤️❤️❤️
Haha, this is so accurate. I can relate to all of these realities, especially the 2:56 AM cam and cleaning reality! My two guinea pigs' cage is in my bedroom and I have resorted to wearing ear plugs to muffle the sound of the water bottle at all hours of the night. And, although I tidy their cage several times a day, it seems as soon as I am finished they once again have poop and hay all over the place (which is exactly why I tidy it up several times a day!) But I wouldn't trade my little cuties for anything because I love them. :)
4:24 That yawn was so cute 😍🤣
Beyond accurate, the hay feeding is very relatable my gosh.
The little 2 cuties roaming around at the floor is so adorable, ur piggies are so loveable even if reality can be different sometimes :)
Thank you for this! I watch guineapigs on youtube and see all these lovely clean cages - and I'm spot cleaning sometimes three times a day and it's poop everywhere! It's nice to see that I'm not the only one struggling with it! Also nice to see nose bops and stealing food too. My two (soon to be three) have to eat that one bit of hay the other one has even though there is a full hay rack, so they'll start snatching it.
I think the guinea pigs waking you up in the middle of the night is definitely relatable to me since I keep them in room and on rare occasions, they keep me up most of the night when their rumble strutting and complaining it's horrible but I still love them
The waking up sounds part is so true! I only have one Guinea Pig but he makes so much noise late at night!
Love you and you're pigs, I have 2 1 called Bubble and the other is called squeak.
Could you please recommend a outdoor cage
My girls are Bubbles and Barbara. Bubbles is so chubby.
I have two one called Karamala and one koke
Everything you captured in this video was perfect. They wake me up randomly throughout the night and I can’t keep them in one area when I let them roam. In fact, one of my piggies refuses to share a living space with the others. Nonetheless, I love them very much. Great content! ✨
They are like looking after a baby and it takes more effort then a dog or cat in my opinion but you can't help but loving them even though they wake you up at 3.00 in the morning 🐹🍅
Love this and so spot on!
I LOVE this video!! I remember when my piggy got home I was always frustrated because it was almost impossible to have everything clean and tidy like all the videos you see on social media... then u realize we all (me included) post only the best hahahah but its lovely to have these tiny animals roaming around the house Thank you for showing what is really like!!
This was soooo dog on funny!!!! Reality never seems to fall in line with our expectations!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Me: Finally some good sleep.... My piggy: you know what no peace and quiet *starts to chew on his bars at 4:00am*
I loved this one, I had forgotten how much I enjoyed it!❤😊
HAHAHA! I'm so glad you showed this! I've watched several of your videos and was frankly, a little annoyed trying to figure out how your cage is so clean! And when your piggies were making noise, I looked over to see a few of mine looking at me. 😁 Thank you for showing reality.
Omg 😱 I love this! To all guinea pig owners this really speaks the truth. Especially right after you clean the cage though. Your just like I did a wonderful job, few minutes laters...........
SO ACCURATE! LOVE THIS!!
I miss my 4 piggies. They were so human, it was crazy. They could distinguish colors, would speak with me, they would follow me and be patient when I cut veggies and fruit for them. When Iwas gone for long and returned, they'd greet me with the loudest "I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE BAAAACK" squeak. And of course, they were the _b e s t_ snuggle partners. I loved having them in my life. But watching them all pass away so tragically just made me decide not to have a piggie ever again. I can't take this pain anymore.
3:14 Nugget: it’s my turn to go in da circus! Lulu: *NO!* Sylvester: hey, that’s not nice of you lulu, Lulu: MY CIRCUS, MY RULES!
I'm from Finland and here Lumi means snow XD
lumi ,sounds like good
Ots o I am from Russia
I’m from Greece, Lumi doesn’t really mean anything, but in Greek letters it’s Λούμι!
So cute
Yeah that's probably her naming scheme. She looks like snow. Either an odd coincidence, or she just named her like that on purpose
The reality is the real reason to love them haha I love them even when they bite me make a mess fight , oh well every bit has been a blessing I love my life 🙂
Can't wait till our guinea pigs will roam around like that. We've only had them for a few weeks. They are so fun to watch.
So cute! My guinea pigs have added so much happiness and laughter to my life :D
This had me laughing because it's so true 😂 but we love them anyway
To cute 😍 The ones I used to take care of used to make a lot of noise late at night used to scream whenever I went into the kitchen or opened the fridge. Used to pull down the water all the time.
I had my Guinean pig in a small home for a couple years now 😞 I have recently seen things about having bigger homes for them. Me and my mom made a bigger place for him to live (it’s huge!) and I am so thankful for your help to show me the cage size that should be the regular size. He already looks happier. And if you have a Guinea pig it’s really simple just get a c&c cage or make a wooden cage! Thank you again! And he doesn’t have a buddy right now because his brother ( Guinea pig friend’) passed away. He will forever be missed.
