George and Mochi

Yes, he is known as Ferocious George. His previous owner had called my vet office and wanted him to be euthanized because he bites. My vet reached out to me and asked if I was willing to take a chance. Of course I would! I love the underdogs!
George is not ferocious, but I think that his nipping is a way of him playing. He will kinda lunge at me while I'm cleaning his cage then go popcorning away. But he LOVES his head being rubbed. He will stop whatever he is doing, close his eyes and just love the pets.
George was bonded with Mochi shortly after he came here. Mochi is a skittish boy too and they are often grumbling at each other. But Ive never seen them fight. Mochi likes his head being rubbed too, but he doesn't let you pet him so easily. Mochi was left behind in an apartment when their owner moved out.
Both boys are a tough nut to crack. They may not ever be cuddly Guinea pigs. But they are both full of personality and are the definition of an underdog. Experienced Guinea pig owners only. These boys are worth it and always seem to make me laugh.
