Jaana, a guinea pig/cavy in the entrance of her cave

This is me, Jaana!

Hi, my name is Jaana.  My name is taken from a druid character in the popular Ultima game.  I'm a birthday gift from Fibergeek's cousin!

Together with my children, we are Fibergeek's female masters, he's our male slave.  We run around in the garden, take care of the grass and in exchange (actually because we tell him to!) he gives us nice food.  While our slave abandons us during his trips to Turkey, his sweet little sister takes care of us.  And sometimes her fast-growing child teases us, but that little rat actually also ensures that we are in good condition.

We're Guinea Pigs but sometimes we're also referred to as Cavies which is the plural of Cavy.  Our Turkish names are Hint Domuzu (Indian Pig) or Kobay (Subject as in Laboratory Animal) and in Dutch we're called Cavia.  And for the record, our Latin name is Cavia porcellus.  Click here if you want to learn more international guinea pigs/cavy names.

The footprints of guinea pigs/cavies in the snow

This picture was taken around New Year 2001.  It shows the footprints of Shelly and myself.  It's one of Fibergeek's favorite pictures.

Hey!  You made it to the bottom of the page?  Did you like it?  Why don't use view the rest of these guinea pig/cavy pages and why don't you let our slave know what you think of this site?  Mail him at <fibergeek @ codegurus.be>, we love ya!

And for the record, the very first site of us is still online at Freewebz, the original site of Fibergeek's Cavies!
And if you think you're a cavy expert, you can check out this quiz which I found.
