These little ruby-red-eyed furry squeakers are sisters and they are about ten or eleven weeks old. They're unbelievably cute but very timid at the moment. It might look like they're on the grass in these photographs that Chris took but they're actually on our living room rug. Lisa (on the left) is a beautiful mink colour and she has one white back leg and a splodge of ginger on her back. She is named in honour of the wonderful and inspirational Lisa Lynch. Ruth (on the right) is a mix of brown and ginger, is a little smaller than her sister and is named after Ruth Goodman from Edwardian Farm and Victorian Farm. (You know how much I admire Ruth Goodman!)
Lisa and Ruth haven't met Brenda, Edith, Jemima and Martha yet. The two piglets are currently in the indoor cage and when it's a nice sunny day I shall let them out on the grass for a little while and I'll gradually introduce them to the older guineas. By the time the warmer weather comes they'll all be out mowing the grass in guinea pig unison. Utter cuteness!
