Mochi is lovely ^^

I used to have one just like her but she got jumped upon by one of my male guinea pig and as the result got pregnant at a really young age. Happened while I was cleaning the cages, was careless >< I didn't realise the males could rut anytime anywhere .... so ignorant. My young female pass away trying to birth the babies...guinea pig babies are HUGE >< so its really wise to only let them breed when they are at least 1.5 - 2 years old. My oldest GP gave birth to 2 live young when she was 3 but the process during the pregnancy term was quite tedious, had to give her loads of Vitamin C, folic acid and etc. By the time she is close to birthing, her tummy was like a balloon. Can actually feel the feet and all of the babies around the side of her abdomen ^^ very wonderful feeling

Shucks...didn't realise I type sooo much >< just that I miss having pets around...used to have alot but now my house has nothing since my BT pass away...

Anyway, you have yourself a wonderful Valentine Day ^^

Thanks! Yeah, I've breed guinea pigs all my life, and since the babies are born with fur and eyes already open they develop to be really big inside the womb. By comparison hamsters and bunnies have such tiny babies! Don't worry about the long comment, I loved reading it! Pet owners always have so much to talk about. :3

I've always had lots of pets growing up - I should get photos of all of them - although now I have much less. XD Used to have over 15 guinea pigs in primary school! I feel pets really do complete a household, haha~ Will you get any more?

Aw, happy v-day to you too!

What a fluffball! I'm not a big rodent fan, but she's a cutie. Sheesh, how many pets do you have, anyway? O.O

Right now? 4 rabbits, 3 hedgehogs, 3 guinea pigs, 1 chinchilla, 1 dog, 1 terrapin plus a few fishes here and there. Quite a few of them are rescues, though: 3 of the bunnies (from a friend who was moving), 1 of the guinea pigs (abandoned at a park) and the terrapin (found by the roadside). I've always had lots of pets growing up - at one point there were 15 guinea pigs, 5 rabbits, 5-7 hamsters and 3 dogs. The only pet I've never had are KITTIES because a lot of older Chinese folks don't like them... including my dad. T___________T KITTY!!!

She's fine and dandy! Eats a lot, poops a lot, curls in a corner. Miracle's having some problems, he's going bald and losing weight although he eats normally. D: We brought him to the vet but she couldn't discern anything wrong with him. T____________T
