Default Guinea Pig ~ Cavy Haven

If you've ever wondered about the life of a guinea pig ... look no further ~
Beverley Kerry's fantastic website provides a humourous look into the lives and personalities of her piggies.

A page I found quite illuminating was Oddpigs Oddities !! certainly a good point to explain to the children !

Enjoy ~ www.CavyHaven.co.uk

Beverley was also Sparkle*s creative writing competition winner ~ her entry can be seen on this page of Errol Eagle's section ~ My Six Piggies

I have just returned from visiting this site - it's gorgeous!! To me, Guinea Pigs are just furry, squeaky little cuddles on stumpy legs! I love 'em! I'm gonna get one - don't tell DH, he might not notice!! (hope, hope)

Would I get away with claiming the squeaking was one of the windmills in desperate need of oiling? :idea: Don't dash my hopes like that!!:weepy: I desperately need a piggie!

We have a dog,not arround during meal times and knows hes not allowed in the dining area.Usually only in pub by request of customers late p.m. or early a.m. with us when we are cleaning.Know people that have cats and birds as well.Some pubs have rabbits and guinea pigs as well out in the garden for the children to see.
Have you got a rotary washing line ?you could always blame that.lol
