We are getting a new pet!
Some would guess the typical pet...dog, cat, etc.
But we are getting a CAVY!!!
What is a cavy you ask??? Well the other name for Cavy is Guinea Pig!
Sean and I have been thinking about getting a dog for awhile now and although we think we could handle the responsibility we decided that for the time being we needed to get something that was a little less reliant on our schedules.
So we have been researching Guinea Pigs and have taken a first step towards owning a pair(they apparently like to be with a friend), by purchasing these wire cube kits. They are used to create an enclosure that will allow free range and a greater space than the old plastic cages would.
There have been some really great websites that have helped with our decision and "layout" for our cage.
One such website is here.
I was absolutly amazed when I realized just how neat this could be. We are excited to be on the road to cavy ownership!!!! And I am so glad the girls are participating in the steps that it will take to bring ours home.

Have fun with your new Cavy. We had three of them at one time. Now we settle for bringing the kindergarten "Rico" home for a weekend a time or two. ;)
So how did you keep your three cavies??? I am just so facinated with the interesting parts of keeping this pet!
It will be a different but very nice experience to have such a pet, have fun.
