Convents and monasteries for randy guinea pigs

Tweet

We have offered to house-sit at our niece’s place in April and June. There are two cats which are very shy and aren’t often seen, and six guinea pigs. The story I love about the guinea pigs is that the family originally bought two which they thought were both males. However, soon there were babies and now there are two pens housing six guinea pigs. The four females are in a pen which has been labelled the ‘convent’ and the two males are in a pen called a ‘monastery’. I think these are very appropriate names for their yards. I’m looking forward to meeting the guinea pigs soon although we won’t be going there to house-sit until late April. The photo is of guinea pigs at Perth Royal Show. I think you're looking at its front end!
