Talia and Pop!
As part of Talia's bat mitzvah she has to do a project that reflects Jewish values and
she has chosen to do it on compassion to animals. Talia wants to show how we can
take care of animals and prevent cruelty.
Part of her project was to visit the Jiggley Piggley Farm and help out, while picking my
brain on what is involved in running a rescue operation.
Here she is giving little Pop a cuddle!
It was a pleasure spending the morning with you Talia!

Just what is it about butterscotch guinea pigs??
This is just an observation I have made after years of photographing guinea pigs. Useless information really, but
it keeps proving itself true! Butterscotch guinea pigs are very photogenic. It's hard to get a bad shot of one, but why!?!
I'll tell you why...butterscotch guinea pigs seem to share two genetic traits that make them perfect models.
The first one is obvious, they're a beautiful color that just looks great in a photo.
The second is the key, and a little less obvious. Perhaps it's my imagination, but I don't think so!
Butterscotch guinea pigs have perfect EARS! Each and every one has the cutest ears, with just the
right amount of fold in them, and they lay just so on the head.
I kid you not, have a look the next time you run into a butterscotch cutie... It's genetic!

Full, Full, FULL!!!
Not a rescue spot available at the Jiggley Piggley Farm.
They keep pouring in and I have had my rubber arm twisted one too many times!
Sorry, but we can not accept any more rescues until the last week of August.

Marmy the Marmotte !!

DAMN CAT!!
At my old place I had a huge, round outdoor pen (with no cover). It was about 30 feet across, with a 4 foot high fence around it.
It was great! Must of been like being free out there and it was also very pleasing to the eye.
In 5 years, my animals were never bothered by neighborhood cats, and there were 3 next door,and several others
nearby.
Here, there are just two cats, and both of them are determined hunters looking for a prize guinea pig trophy.
I guess it's because they're still young, but it's very annoying.

Fizz popped!
June 4, 2011
Who is responsible for this?!!!
We may never know for sure, but Gin and Zapper were both found running around behind a Roxboro apartment building in April,
along with little Fizz!
Fizz is about to POP. Perhaps the babies will hold some clues as to who fathered them.
Which ever father it may have been, the babies are sure to be just TOO cute!
Gin is one of the friendliest guinea pigs we have ever had here.
One of just a handful of nearly fearless guinea pigs. She's a sweety!

Patches
Sadly, Patches, the only guinea pig we call our own passed away Sunday night.
We aren't sure what happened to him but it was sudden and unexpected.
Patches was a cagemate to our current bunny, Hoppy, and to Doppy, who we lost last summer.
They were the cutest trio.
Lately, Hoppy and Patches have been spending the weekdays with me, at Pierrefonds Comprehensive High School.
They lived in the Resource Department and were visited by many young people daily.
Patches regular visitors were saddened by the news of his passing.
Hoppy is now on his own and we can't have that! I'll introduce him to our only single male today, Buttons.
Hopefully they will like each other!

We're Moved in!!
That's the good news. The bad news is that our garage will not be equiped for animals for about 3 weeks yet.
We will not be accepting any animals until then. It will be undergoing a complete renovation, from garage to ultra small animal facility!
The good news is that we do still have hay available and grooming services available.
Except for hay sales, we are now closed until March 6!
7 more days till the big move!
All our guinea pigs have been placed, so there will be no adoptions, rescues, or boarding until March 6,
possibly even a bit later.
We do still have hay available for sale.
Sorry for any inconvenience, and we hope to see you at
the NEW Jiggley Piggley Farm location very soon!
