Guinea Pigs: No longer just a source of food.

[bunk]

My GF had been wanting some for a while... (No time for a dog, hates cats) Her birthday came around so I got her two pigs and some pig paraphernalia. I had some when I was a kid and it's pretty much how I remember: Lots of insane running around, constant eating and crapping, and of course the high pitched squeals about everything. All in all, Guinea Pigs are pretty bad ass though. My GF gave them names and then quickly took them away. I'd ask for suggestions but she'd just hate them all for not being cute enough or something.

How about yuns? Anyone else ever have any pigs in the past or currently have any?
