Hey all. My name is Kaona and I live in Canada. I just brought home my first guinea pig today and I've named him Butterbeer (Can you tell I'm a Harry Potter fan? LOL). Unfortunately I didn't realize until reading posts on here that they need to have at least one other guinea pig friend, so I am going to get him one today. Anyway, I'm not very good at introductions... it's good to be here

Welcome to the forum.
How old is butterbeer? Im assuming hes a male? Make sure you get a younger pig as a friend as boars can sometimes fight.
Guinea pigs can live alone happily but often thrive with company.
Welcome again

Butterbeer is young, not sure what age though. I found a guinea pig friend for him that is the same gender and about the same size as him. I introducted them to each other gradually (they are from the same place though and used to live in the same cage, so they were actually only separated for a day... I think that helped a lot), they are getting along very well together.

Welcome from the center of the US! I love the name. When we bought our first pig, we didn't know about having pairs either, or that we needed a bigger cage than a store cage. This forum is so good for asking questions!
