Thanks for all the interesting info about guinea pigs! I hope you get one soon. I'll put a good word in for ya :-). Did you know that some places in South America still eat guinea pigs? They're called 'cuy' there...pronounced 'quee'. I had the opportunity to try one, but I declined and tried the alpaca instead.
