Funny: Guinea Pig Sees Himself on YouTube
Like 2 Dislike 0 Published on 29 Mar 2012
This is a really funny video by one of our volunteers, filming his pet guinea, "Chips", watching himself on YouTube. Update: Chips is very happy and healthy in his adopted home and is now nearly eight years old.
( At the end of the video are some tips for families who are considering adopting a pet, and also some tips for those of you already with guinea pigs of your own.)
Wee Companions Small Animal Adoption is an all-volunteer run non-profit organization, which is located in San Diego, CA.
