Save Caspian and Quincy!

Two years ago we got Quincy at the pound and last year we found Caspian in the hope that the two could become good friends.  It didn't turn out as well as we'd hoped and now that we're moving to Germany, we need to find two separate homes for them. 

If you can adopt either of these cute guys, they, and we, would be so grateful.  We'd intended to give them a permanent home but hadn't figured another international move into the picture.

They're phenomenally cute and friendly as all get out.

Here's Quincy!  He has a hilarious full name, which is actually secret, but if you adopt him we'll let you in on it (though of course you're free to change it if you so desire)...



And then this is Caspian.  He's not quite full grown - or at least he's still a bit smaller than Quincy, though with all his hair he can fool you. 




We really have enjoyed these little guys and are so sad that we can't keep them and take them with us, however the fact that we won't have housing when we get to Germany (we'll be staying in a guesthouse until we find a place) makes this impossible.

The Yolo County Animal Shelter no longer adopts guinea pigs out to families and so there's no guarantee that they'd survive a stay there.

Can you help?

Delayed Details

Were it not for the fact that I'm neck deep in sorted/unsorted piles of stuff, wrapped up in moving estimates and flight schedules, and meanwhile still managing to make semi-regular meals and keeping appointments, I'd have written a very nice blog post about the same goings-on (except for the meals and appointments, of course).

Instead I've had no left over energy to compose anything worthwhile here.  That'll have to come later as there are still too many things to be done

The basics?  We're leaving next month for two or more years in Germany.

There are many adventures to come as we head toward the opposite Opposite Shore - but for now everything has to revolve around the practical.  Hence the next post to come...
