Bentley is just your average guinea pig...nothing terribly unusual about him. Cute features he has are: a little "rosette" on the top of his head that makes him look like he has bedhead, plus the fact that he has one black foot, one white foot, one brown foot and one foot with all four colors. Jess made a good choice. :)
All the guinea pigs we've ever had are very talkative. They squeak like crazy when you open the fridge or rattle a plastic bag. They think it's a treat. Some of them "tell" you when they're out of water by yanking on their water bottle and shaking it back and forth. When a male is around a female, (or when you scratch their backs in just the right way) they do this little "growl" that reminds me of an engine revving up. :) They are pretty easy to read once you get used to them.
Holli, I'm thankful Rob has just learned to live with this quirk I possess. I love animals. I think it was either learn to live with it, or move on. So far, he's staying. :)
Guinea pigs are pretty easy to clean up after. I'd say a cage cleaning 1-2 times a week would keep your house smelling crystal clean. :) Maybe Tim will come around one day....
I'm a 37 year old woman who is doing the best I can. I've been married for over eighteen years to my husband, Robert. Our son, Josh, will be 19 in March. Our daughter, Jess, turned 17 in August. Our youngest, Josiah, will be 12 in November. We have four dogs, two cats, and two guinea pigs. I like to scrapbook, make cards and read.
I was laid off this year after almost eleven years of working in the office of a small spring manufacturer.
I hang out with my friends as often as I can. The ones that are too far away to hang out with, I keep in touch with through email.
My faith has carried me through some tough times, and continues to do so. I like my life and strive to get closer to God daily. In addition to this oft-neglected blog, I have an oft-neglected myspace page, and a regularly updated facebook page. Life is an ever changing adventure. I keep saying I'm going to start posting here more often. So far it hasn't happened....but I guess stranger things have happened. Thanks for stopping by!

That's funny he has a little moptop going. Does he squeak? I used to have a guinea pig when I was younger and he was always making little noises.

I've always wanted a guinea pig! Tim told me no way! My husband is a loser (ok not really but sometimes)! LOL!
