Guinea Pig Pride & Prejudice
Guinea Pig Pride & Prejudice | Jane Austen
29 posts | 8 read | 6 to read
"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single guinea pig in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."""""It is a truth personally acknowledged by Mrs. Bennet that all five of her furry daughters--Jane, Elizabeth, Mary, Kitty, and Lydia--are in need of husbands. To her mother's grave disappointment, Elizabeth Bennet is headstrong and won't take just anyone, especially not the haughty Mr. Darcy.* Elizabeth blames the arrogant gentleman for steering Mr. Bingley, one of the rare men in possession of a good fortune, away from her older sister Jane. But when boy-crazy Kitty and Lydia fall in with the wrong crowd, it is Darcy who saves the day--and the Bennet family honor--and wins Elizabeth's tiny, rapidly beating rodent heart.This delightful retelling of "Pride and Prejudice" is illustrated throughout with full color photos of the finest guinea pig actors working today. Costumers familiar with the elegant curves of the guinea pig form have tailored lush period looks. And of course, it is the love between guinea pigs that can best illustrate the depth of feeling between Jane Austen's Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy.*"The guinea pig playing Darcy struggled with looking supercilious, though rest assured, when carrots were removed from the elegant sets, the actor was able to still his nose long enough to look down it, and once he donned his summer-weight waistcoat, he made a fine and dashing Darcy."

After Raptor bath time it‘s Raptor snack time! 😂😂 Lev is not a fan of the baths but she will grumpily tolerate it, towel drying her on the other hand, she will yell and grumble the WHOLE time! So we take her mind off of it with snacks, today she had a large Romain lettuce leaf. #guineapigsoflitsy #prettypiggygirl

Soubhiville I didn‘t know they needed baths! She‘s adorable 😍 5y
LauraJ @Soubhiville Me either. Cutie! 5y
Seekingtardis @Soubhiville @LauraJ normally they really don‘t need full on baths, just a brush out and a wipe off but I have a very lazy girl that doesn‘t clean herself like she should so she gets a once a month full on scrub down!! Thank you!! I think she‘s the prettiest princess piggy around and I tell her so!! (edited) 5y
BookwormM You want to try boys they need bathing regularly due to the grease gland 🤣🤣 5y

It was fleece changing day for the Levvy pig!
Hub: “this is a really soft blanket!” Me:”isn‘t it cute? It‘s for Lev!” Hub:”seriously you got a fuzzy fuzzy unicorn blanket for the pig to poop on?” Me:”yes, yes I did!” 😂😂 #guineapigsoflitsy #spoiledpiggy #guineapigmom

Slajaunie @Seekingtardis We have 4 animals do mine is a bit tired of them. They are all my babies but he has his favorite. Also, LOVE Doctor Who!!! 6y
Skyrimir Ahhhh! Do you have any tips on fleece for guinea pigs? I‘ve been thinking of switching to fleece for mine (well, my school‘s guinea pig, but I take care of him!). 6y
Seekingtardis @Skyrimir What we do is just buy a fleece blanket from the dollar general, around $5-$8, and every day we vacuum it out completely, we have a little hand held just for her, and once a week we take out the blanket, put a different one in and wash the dirty one in a delicates bag. Then every two months we toss one out and buy a new! I also keep a thick towel on the very bottom of the cage to keep the wood dry and wash it with the blankie! 6y
Seekingtardis @Skyrimir it helps my allergies and to me it keeps the smell completely gone! And since yours is at school, instead of a vacuum we‘ve used a small broom brush and pan to keep it clean and it works just as well. It‘s very easy to keep clean since we do it every day, but I won‘t lie sometimes I‘m too tired to vacuum it out so I do it very well the next day. 6y
Skyrimir @Seekingtardis thanks for the info! I think I‘ll give this a try over the next few weeks and see if it works better than what I‘ve been doing. 6y
RadicalReader @Seekingtardis “ you got a blanket for the pig to poop on?” Funny yet appropriate response “ he has a name!!” 6y

Seekingtardis @aschermetz we‘ve had her for about 3 years and just recently lost her sister so she‘s only got us and it‘s only been in the last couple months that‘s she has stopped running so much from us. 6y

Melkyl @aschermetz @Seekingtardis My piggie is not one for snuggling either. He mainly only cares about his veggie treats. When I open his door, he runs over for snacks. When I try to hold him, he is a wiggle butt. 😊 (edited) 6y

Melkyl My piggie, Winston, goes to school with me Monday thru Friday. He starts squawking when the bell rings for each period change. He knows new kids are coming in who will give him carrots 😂 7y
RadicalReader @Seekingtardis I had a guinea pig that knew when food was because whenever he would hear the fridge open he‘d squeal 6y
Seekingtardis @RadicalReader she does that when the bedroom door opens because she knows if she makes noise she‘s going to get attention or food lol 6y
