[QUOTE="totoro, post: 381195, member: 3155"] This is pretty funny and cute. Our therapist's daughter who is adopted and has/had some issues had a guinea pig and now that she is a teen had realized that she does not have the time for her piggy. So she spent a loooong time going back and forth thinking about it. Well therapist kept thinking about this as well, she kept going back to N... SHe asked us about N- would N like one. She felt this would be a great fit for her and help her grow. Help her with anxiety etc. We spent over a month, thinking, all of us. We did not tell N though. N has been asking for one for over a year. But we spent the past month going over all of the details with N and the what ifs. So last Wednesday was the big exchange. :happy: Flossy- Florence- came home after an hour visit in her office. She is a long haired bicolored- orange and black little sweety! therapist gave us all of the supplies. So now I have been reading up- I know she needs to lose weight and we have been working her big butt a bit! LOL I also have read in everything that they do so much better with a friend. So we may in time add another. She is 2 yo. I am finding that she is super picky- a variety of lettuces and carrots! apples... that is it- turns her little nose up at everything else. I have the timothy hay and her pellets. Is there a trick to adding food. I read not a lot of fruit- very small amount. Any other info??? We are using our huge dog crate as a play pen which opens up on the sides! TIA [/QUOTE]
