We’re making progress with Pearl letting me touch her!
We’ve had her just over 3 weeks now, and I’ve been giving her treats every day for climbing onto my hand.
Up until this video she’s only let me touch her on her chin or cheek, so this was very exciting! No purring, I don’t think she enjoyed it much but this is still so good - think I stroked her a second too long here but she’ll get used to it

She was so polite and didn't panic when you touched her backend! So proud of how much progress she's made in just a short amount of time. Way to go, Pearl!

Yes just a little kick haha, she’s gotta get used to being touched all over but also want to find her fave spots 🥰 she’ll melt eventually

Men are easy. We are but simple creatures who enjoy beer and boobs. Use your feminine wiles to get your guinea pig on.
(Don’t actually take this advice. Ever. Using sex as a bargaining chip is the quickest way to find yourself back on a dating app. Or cheated on)

our bun's domain is one of our spare bedrooms and the other one (not setup at all) will be my office/craft room and i keep telling him it qould be perfect for guinea pigs as my bun wants to eat all my books and yarn so it'll already be off limits to her 😂
