Mabel - she came to say hello to me 🐹 They are a little skittish at the moment so I just keep popping in to see them and having a little talk to them . I think it will take a little while to get used to their surroundings.

It’s hard to see but moonlight has one red eye 👁️ can only really see it in certain lights . They are settling in nicely and come to the cage to say hello but I have not been able to pick them up yet they are very skittish at the moment . Riley and Elsa have both had a sniff at them in the cage with wagging tails - Freddy is curious but not quite brave enough to get close to them .

They will come round soon. I'm glad you have 2 together, that will help them.

I bought this foldable pen from Amazon - thought it would be good to put them in whilst I clean out their cage and give them a bit of exercise too. Mabel tried it out today . Yes I held Mabel today for the first time lotsofcats - hubby picked her up and I sat her on my knee she seemed to be fine. I tried picking moonlight up yesterday but she tried scurrying around my neck she still is very unsure but it is still early days they have definitely come around over the last few days. I keep popping in to the bedroom to talk to them so they get used to my voice 🐹 It was really funny when I went in tonight they started doing zoomies around the cage and through the tunnel and making popping noises they are just adorable. I spot clean their cage every day and try and spend some time with them and do a full change every 3/4 days. I am a little scared to pick them up at the moment without hubby being there 😂I think it’s because they are so small and try to scurry but I’m sure with time i will become more confident.

A better photo of Mabel- they could both do with a little brush but I’m frightened to upset them at the moment until they feel more at ease

They are so cute. Do they whistle for their food? - I love the noise guinea pigs make.
