Fostering piggies
Just when I thought my house couldn't get any crazier... :D

We are now fostering four guinea pigs -- one pregnant female (all white, long hair); one young female (orange and white); and two males (black and white & black, tan & white)

I know little to nothing about piggies, but I'm going to an impromptu training session tomorrow. Until then I'm just going to feed them parsley and carrots. (Did you know they sound like pigs? They squeak and kinda purr too.)

2. No, not yet.
These are very skidish and I don't think they've been handled much at all. (I'd rather think that than the alternative.) I'm going to give them some time to settle into the new environment before subjecting them to the camera. :)
