We had Blackie for about a month already, and Ginny is getting used to her, but you might be wondering, what did Ginny do with Blackie since they are different genders before he got used to her? Well, the only way that you can find that out, is by reading what happened below!
Ginny's Story:
Blackie is a female, and Ginny is a male. But is Ginny happy?
But unfortunately, Ginny wasn’t sure by the fact that Blackie was going to live in his room from now on. It is Ginny’s territory, that is.
Ginny and Blackie became the best of friends! But the only question is, is Blackie really a girl? Or did Ginny make a mistake and did the wrong thing to the wrong Guinea Pig? Well, here is how we found out that Blackie was a fake male until we found out the truth!
At first, when I went to the Pet store, Blackie was in a cage with, I believe was 2 other females. But when we asked an assistant, she said that Blackie was a male. We begged and begged her to tell the truth because if we brought a female home along with our male guinea pig, who knows what would happen! But afterwards, we were thinking about it. First my dad and mom thought about where to put the cages, and all of that. When we finally decided to get Blackie, we asked for a one last check to see if it was a male. So the assistant quickly picked up Blackie, and checked her. She finally said, “It is for sure a male!”
The only problem was that, she wrote down on the paper (The survey) that it is quarantined that Blackie is a male. So they weren’t really sure. So we bought Blackie, took her home, put her in her cage, left her and went to the mall. When we came home, Blackie was just sitting there. NO movement from her at all. No squeaks, squeals, squawks, or anything. She just sat there staring in space!
Later in the week, my mother picked her up, and I picked Ginny up. According to our resources on Guinea Pigs, and the Internet, it had said that once you buy a new guinea pig, place them both on the couch (After three weeks, but we did it after a day) and make them go to each other and sniff! Surprisingly, my mother had picked up Blackie and put her on the bed upstairs, and my dad had picked up Ginny and placed him on the chair downstairs. I ran to Blackie, petted her, ran to Ginny, petted him and Ginny sniffed my finger and smelt Blackie on it, so he started on big SQUAWK! It was crazy! He wouldn’t stop until we actually showed him Blackie, and he continued squawking, but afterwards he eased up on it and went to sleep.
Now in days, it is officially September 28, 2003, and Ginny and Blackie eased up on the squawking, purring and all they do is lie down next to each other, and right now our solution came to: Blackie and Ginny are the best of friends, until we find out what Blackie really is! The question remains unsolved. Is Blackie a boy, or a girl?
