well i have a lab x collie - Jasper 4 &/12 yrs old - dogs trust pooch

then there is my greyhound x whippet - Anwen 8yrs old - taken on from family member who's child is allergic to her

and finally my extremely naughty cat - Meeko not yet 2 - he was found by police in a shoe box stuffed in the bonnet of a BMW, he was then passed onto the Cats protection who i adopted him from within 30 mins of him arriving at our surgery (5 weeks old!)

needless to say that the cat is the boss - poor dogs have no chance!

People who haven't had pigs just don't understand them!! Mine are lazy most of the time, esp as they are getting older bless them! They used to be quite nervous but as time went on they got much more confident and won't run and hide when you walk in the room, they'll either run towards the opening hoping for food or just carry on what they are doing (often sleeping!). They don't give a damn about the dog walking in the room either, just stick their noses in the air at him!

Aww bless him, Oscar the guinea bird! When one of the nurses looked after mine while i was on holiday she said someone in her house would regularly come home in early hours of the morning (she lived in a student house, was on the nursing degree) and my pigs would hear him and squeak for some veg! They got into the student life hehe!

i've had quite a few people say to me that they don;t see the appeal in guinea pigs as they are boring and don;t do anything....may i say none of them have ever owned guineas themselves!!! My piglets are bursting full of character, they are forever running round, playing with their toys, jumping about, sqeuaking and making a variety of other sounds. No piggy is the same, as i previously said ted is very brave and outgoing whereas oscar is shy and bit nervous...these two boys are very active but i've had other piglets that are lazy gits. I think they are fab!!!

Oscar now and then in the middle of the night makes that noise where it sounds like a chirping bird...scares the hell out of me as i wake up lol...whilst he is doing it ted is all submissive and bowing down to the floor and you can;t snap them out of it, just have to wait for it to finish!!!

Pigs are full of character aren't they? Such fab personalities! Someone at college the other day said that pigs are pathetic...that made me mad, they obviously don't know pigs very well!

Emma Clark — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 19:39:10 GMT

I have 2 guineas...Ted and oscar...Ted is very inquisitive, always nosing into everyting, Oscar on the other hand is generally very nervous and retreats away from most things....unless he has his brother leading the way in which case the two of them become very noisy and mischievious!!! lol

Here are some pics:

Notice how ted is always right in on the action and oscar is lurking in the background lol!!

Well I am owned by Frankie (Mini Rex bun), Salty (Silver fox seal point bun) & BooBoo (Babe) the tame wild bun who's real mommy got squished by a car when she was about 10days old. I hadn't got the heart to let the vet put her down, so she now owns me!!

My buns own me, because they are always telling me that I should be feeding, watering, playing and letting them run round......with absoloutely no time for Mommy & Daddy whatsoever!

Just get some hens. I used to have a garden. Now I have bare soil. They are very effective at clearing, well, everything. But I love 'em! And I really love their eggs!

guinea pigs! I have two, Betty and Lola, they are the best, such charachters and never fail to say hi when I walk through the door from work.

other than those I have some tropical fish, they are cool and very entertaining/soothing to watch.
