Quite right too. Why should social animals of any species live alone?
Have a marvellous Monday.
Best wishes Molly
Exactly our point. When there are other options it’s particularly frustrating
xxxx
You need help to fight the human tyranny.
I read “to fight the human tranny”.
Manual or automatic?
LOL
Whee do!
xxxx
I agree with you, you can’t say its possible without problems or it’s impossible – it’s always dependent of the personality of every anipal. Not only humans are individual – we too :o)
It’s frustrating knowing there are so many options out there for piggies and there are lots living alone due to misinformation
xxxx
Well you all are living proof that’s not true – you’ve been successful with different pairings – I think mostly because your Mum has been very selective about who gets to be with each other in the cage! It pays to be PICKY!!!! 🙂
Holiday Hugs, Sammy
It’s very much about picking pigsonalities which work well together. Basil wouldn’t fit with anyone but Buddy because Buddy is the only one who puts up with his naughtiness!
xxxxx
Thank you for posting on this. So many social animals are forced by their humans to live lonely and depressed lives, needlessly.
Exactly our point. If it helps one piggy then whee will be happy
xxxx
That’s ridiculous on every level. I’ve even paired over six males with females. I get my pigs three years apart so there is always a younger friend for an older one.
I find younger and older pairing do seem to work well because they go through that hormonal phase at different times.

Sidney was very unhappy when his companion Drew died. That is why Shelby is part of the household. She is a constant reminder to be careful for what you wish.Seriously, the love each other very much.
It’s hard losing a furfriend but it must be even harder for animals who don’t get someone new to squeak to.
xxxx
It would be so sad to have to live alone!
It really would. Whee are glad whee each have furfriends to squeak to
xxxx
You boys are proof that you can put boy piggies together and things can work out fine. Sometimes you have to be careful putting kitteh’s together too. We think it would be lonely if there weren’t anybody to play and snuggle with. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)
You definitely have to be careful but matching pigsonalities can be good fun!

How odd they should print that, I was reading the other day about how social guinea pigs are and how they should really be kept with friends. Shame as so many people will read that and believe it being that it’s issued from Pets at Home
Exactly, it’s furry frustrating that a supposedly knowledgeable source is giving out false information that frankly our little hoomans seem to know more about.
xxxx
quite right too ,silly humans,xx Speedy
And because it’s printed people will believe it, even though it’s rubbish
xxxx
Oh dear, I feel so bad for the piggy in the magazine story. It’s would be misery not to have a single friend. Hopefully they read your post and get in touch for assistance.
We Three Moggies 100% agree with you x
