We have some new members of the family. Both are male, and both are cute as can be. We are still getting to know them, but I wanted to share them with you. Some day we will get a real camera instead of just my phone. Any name suggestions are welcome!

Life wasn’t chaotic and complicated enough, you didn’t have enough responsibilities and change to cope with, you decided this would be a good time to add some pets into the mix?
As the saying does, I admire your courage but question your judgment.
But seriously, the last I heard you had one smallish guinea pig cage. Big enough for one guinea pig if he got some floor time (which was awkward with Rusty because he was never comfortable with those balls they get inside), but not for two. So, did you get another cage? One big cage so they can live together, or another small cage and they will live apart? (That’s assuming they CAN live together; apparently piggies crave society but the males can also be territorial.)
As for names, I’m not good at that. I’ll have to give it some thought. Enough thought that by the time I have an opinion, the names will have already been selected.

Awww, adorable! The left-hand one looks like a Maxwell, and the right-hand one like a Minion.

If they’re female: Justine and Juliette?
If they’re male, how about Alphonse (one of de Sade’s first names) and Leopold (von Sacher-Masoch)?!

well, the kids are pushing pretty hard for “sugar cube” for the white one and “charlie” for the other. I’m not in favor of sugar cube, but neither am In favor of explaining de Sade to them!

Well, one’s bigger than the other,judging by the photos. David and Goliath? Mugwump and Demitasse?
They are so sweet that Sugar-cube seems to fit the little guy. Maybe his big buddy could be called Salty? Have fun with the name game!

Alphonse and Gaston, Damon and Pythias, Romulus and Remus, Heckle and Jeckle, Butch and Sundance, Starsky and Hutch. I wonder how many other famous male pairings I’m forgetting?
