Hi, my name is Mariska and this is my blog, Guinea Pals, dedicated to all things Guinea Pigs.  

These pics are of our own little herd of piggies.

Why are they even called Guinea Pigs?  Is it because of the piggy noises they make or maybe it has something to do with their cute little fat buts.  I don’t really know, but they sure are cute. 

We have been raising our herd of guinea pigs for years now.  Here on this blog I share all I’ve learnt over the years through research and experience.

I write to the point info, answering all the questions you might have about taking care of your pet guinea pig.
