Meet Mumble our 4 year old Diva in the sows' cage. Mumble was one guinea pig we didn't go looking for, but fell in love with her after pigsitting her for a week. Her previous owner had become too busy with high school to give Mumble much time anymore and so we took her in. At that time we had Pumpkin and Spice who were still young and really active. Mumble was a welcome change as she was content to be held and cuddled.
Once at our house it was decided she needed a bigger cage and we started looking for C&C cage materials and Mumble's old cage was put in storage. She had several new experiences that first month with us: Timothy hay, KleenMama's pellets, daily fresh veggies, fleece bedding and room to run. The worst for her was nail trimmings. I admit she still isn't a big fan of them!
Mumble is our smallest guinea pig weighing in at a trim 900 grams or almost 2 lbs. She may be small, but she is mighty! She lives with two other sows and if the other two try to step out of line, she lets them know! Mumble's favorite accessories are cuddle cups, tunnels and burrow bags, all in my regular sizes.
