Shout Out to Rocky I












Since I was a child I have always had Guinea Pigs. Thinking back I cringe to think what that first little GP went through. There was an incident with a bucket of soapy water and an afternoon left in the Fisher Price Toy Barn (to name a few...). But because of that brave soul Rocky I, our love for Guinea Pigs continues to this day. At the age of 27, I now have two young GPs and they are my 7th and 8th. Bear and TimBit Patrick Chumley aka 'The Baby' (we haven't exactly nailed down the name for this one) have been with me since January, 2010 and are about 3.5 and 3 months old respectively. I will assure you, my level of Guinea Pig care has improved greatly since Rocky I's time. I am not sure exactly what I plan to write in this blog, but I want to have a place where Guinea Pigs in popular culture can be shared and enjoyed. I think they are wonderful pets when cared for correctly and given proper care and attention. So that being said, I will leave you with this image of Rocky I... the Guinea who started it all.
