I hope they settle in quickly so we can have pictures soon!
It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

Oh, bless them, I hope they settle overnight. It’s great that they have each other.

Re: Animals strike curious poses
They were really quiet all the way home (we went to Barry to get them ) and when they were in their hutch, but I think that's ok. They squeal when they are distressed and "wheek" (shorter, going up in pitch) when they are happy
(I'm glad you have been released )
I hope they settle, too. I put the straw from their old home in with the fresh stuff and we were given a bag of their usual food to transition them gradually, so hopefully those things will help.

Oh my god, they're huge! I think I've had some confusion over what a guinea pig is.

Guinea pigs, hares, penguins
Still very nervous but they were fine once we were actually holding them, although Queenie wanted to bury her head in everything. She ran up the inside of TD's hoodie at one point and got herself stuck at the top of his sleeve; luckily he didn't freak out as I couldn't help for a few minutes as I was laughing so hard.
We haven't introduced them yet. I think I'll wait until the pigs are in their garden run, so they can see each other safely and go at their own pace.

Re: Animals strike curious poses
I was going to say the same!
I might have been thinking of hampsters.

Re: Animals strike curious poses
They do look bigger than they are in those photos, to be fair. They are about 1.25x the length of my hand, but significantly bigger than hamsters or gerbils.
