    Everyone on Facebook wants to keep Pippin as well. Okay, so Pippin it remains. Pippin is a SHE now, not a HE. She seems to respond well to Pippin, anyway.

    I had a feeling a couple days ago, since she pissed all over two of my shirts in one day while I was cuddling with her. Maybe it's just me, but I've never had male guinea pigs do that, but the females I've had to it all the time. I think she actually tried to warn me the first time and I wasn't listening, but the second time, she was just all, "Imma gonna pee on your shirt! Ha!"

      I should also add that he was specifically wanting the room he had before. What, was he expecting the guinea pig to still be there?!?! I don't know, 'cause I didn't bring it up. But he really wanted that room.
      Well, it's possible given his condition and the suspect spoon you found that he has something stashed in there that you didn't happen to unearth while cleaning.

        Ugh that guy was just vile. Happy Pippin got a new home.

        I loe guinea pigs....we had 'em growing up (they were my mom's classroom pets). Pity I'm allergic to them. Though that didn't stop me from cuddling them

            That would not surprise me a bit. You might want to go over the room again, extra carefully.

              D'awwww, he's adorable! I'd personally love to have a little rodent for a pet (a guinea pig or a mouse, methinks), but I worry my cats would eat it or my mother would kill it thinking it's a vermin. In any case, I'm glad you were able to save this little one and give her a nice home.

              Hopefully you won't have to see the freak who turned his room into ground zero again. Sounds like a badly-medicated schizo who self-medicates with recreational substances.

                Logged in to see pictures of guinea pig genitalia in my inbox. Pippin may not have much to be proud of yet, but I'm throwing my hat in the "he's a boy" ring.

                If its a dot instead of a Y, you've got a boy.

                Now I have to figure out the best way to tell my mom that people on the internet like to send my pictures of guinea pig weiners.....the confusion is good for her.

                Edit: Bf looking over my shoulder and going WTF was pretty awesome. Made my night.

                  Piggies can get rather big, but they're easy to handle...mice can be hyper as hell or fairly easy, rats are a bit smarter and typically somewhat more laid back than mice, but more active than guinea pigs.

                    Pippin sounds like a good unisex name. Otherwise I'd say Arwyn.

                      Well, we went through everything: the bathroom fan, the toilet tank (found a washrag stuffed in there, WTF?), between the mattresses, behind the mirror, in the AC...I've cleaned up enough drug rooms to know all the hiding spots. Didn't find anything in that room, though. He did have several books of stamps stuffed up in the lamps...he was weird.

                          I don't suppose you were able to charge him for the cost of the extra cleanup and damage to the room due to...uh...unpleasant substances? Or at least for the extra days?

                          I can't help but wonder if the reason he wanted the same room was because his "connection" was going to meet him there later that night.
