The next pet I want to introduce you to is Elvis!
Elvis is a tri colour, male guinea. He is one and a half years old.
Elvis joined the family a few months after Gwen and Pip. He was 5 months old when my friend got him for me!
Elvis lived in a cage near the girls until he was old enough to be neutered. This was so he still had their company and they were able to get to know each other before becoming a bonded trio.
Once Elvis was a few more months older, he was neutered. Although he was neutered he still had to wait 6 weeks to join the girls!
After the 6 weeks were over, I spent the next week bonding the girls with him in a neutral environment. Both Pip and Elvis wanted to be the dominant guinea pig of the group at the beginning, but Pip soon allowed Elvis to be in charge (well that’s what he thinks anyway).
They now all live happily together now and spent time outside together when the weather is nice!
