O.K. Facebook Friends, how many of you remember when some of our very dedicated MGPR members did this to raise money for the rescue? Do you know how long ago it was?

Babies doing baby things.

The babies get so excited to see me come now. This behavior just started yesterday. I am now fully imprinted on them as the care giver. It looks like we were able to boot the portfolio that claimed us successfully. That is such a big relief.

Here are the babies all freshly fed and pooped this morning. Two gained 5 grams and the other 7 grams over night. They ate almost all of the veggies offered over the course of the day and night yesterday. Our FB page is still up. So far so good.

Please read. First I'm sorry to use the . I know how many of you feel about it. Sadly I need to share with you that last month a bot somehow attached itself to our rescue page. I spent hours with FB trying to get it taken off of our account. THe instructions they were giving me warned as I went through the steps that our page could be deleted if I follow them. Obviously I have been reluctant to do it. We find that we can not move forward in some of the things we now need to do without taking those steps. The pop up warnings have changed and it does not seem quite as bad now so we are going to take the chance and try to delete the bot. If this page should disappear please search on MGPR.org in a day or two to like and follow us again. We are very much hoping that this will not happen so cross your fingers and toes for us.

Looking very good this morning. All 4 babies have gained some weight. This is tiny #4. Look closely and you can see a piece of hay in her mouth. Isn't she the sweetest? Hope I don't have to take that back and say it's a boy later on, Edit: Just saw the babies eating lettuce.YEA!

Guinea pig update. Things haven’t gone to plan for the momma and babies, but I’m up for it.

Here they are. Aren't they the cutest? I am concerned about 4. I think you can easily see in its eyes that it is not as happy and hardy as the rest. I won't be waiting too long to step in with supplemental feeding if I think it's needed. It can be hard to tell because they all lose a bit of weight to start with. Wish us luck. ~ Becky

And the answer was 4. There is one that’s really tiny. Momma did good they are all clean and fluffy. I don’t want to bot...

And the answer was 4. There is one that’s really tiny. Momma did good they are all clean and fluffy. I don’t want to bother them too much but I will get weights and change the pad they are on in a bit. Well done Pasha.
