I miss them so much ♥
Up, left: Rudolf a.k.a Rulle or Rudelf and he was a Rex. The man in the house. I usually don’t like white guinea pigs but this was love at first sight. I bought him when he was 1 year old. He was very curious, he had no problems walking on the floor, exploring but only if nobody was in the room ;) He only liked to cuddle if the girls weren’t in the same room, otherwise he”ll crawl up on my breast sitting there with his head up high, quiet and staring at me until I let him go back to the girls. He did the same thing when he wanted to pee. His favourite vegetable was, surprisingly, carrots!
Up, right: Evelina a.k.a Evve and she was a Rex. She was VERY small and absent-minded, especially with the babies. She never went on the floor by herself but she sometimes did if someone was with here (Rudolf). This little girl LOVED to cuddle in a blanket on my knees, she could lie there for hours and she liked to lie on her back as well which is very strange but she was so cute. She talked very loud and she was the only one yelling for food all the time (Rudolf sometimes too, if he was really hungry).
Down, left: Selma a.k.a Selmi or Semlan she was a rex. The leader of the pack and very intelligent but sometimes aggressive determinded. She wasn’t afraid to brawl with Rudolf or the other males we had before him. When we gave them their food, she always picked out the tidbits and hide them somewhere where the others couldn’t find it. She was very fat so when she got babies they were usually abnormally big :( She was also very emotional. When two of her babies died in the first litter she was very sad the first day. She also took care of Evelinas babies when she got sick and died, 4 days after giving birth. This little lady was beyond amazing and very special. I could continue talking about her forever but let’s just say, she acted just like a dog. Walked on the floor, crawled up in my knees when I sat beside her on their blanket etc. She was the last guinea pig we had and she died last year, 5 years old.
I’ve had more guinea pigs but these are the only ones I’ve photos of on my computer. I love them all and I wish everyday that they were here with me because they made me feel needed. Sorry for my terrible english in this post, but I’m a swede ;)
