I dropped and broke my "ok" camera last week, so I did it....I spoiled myself and got a GREAT one!
Jiggley Piggley photography just took a step up!
I just accepted the two cutest guinea pigs EVER! The first adoptables at the NEW Jiggley Piggley Farm!
I was trying to hold out until our renovation was complete, but when I heard these special girls were wanting to come,
I couldn't say no!
They have been boarding with me for a couple of years. They are unusually friendly guinea pigs.
Look for long overdue updates on the "No Pigs" page!
Hay and grooming are always available at the Jiggley Piggley Farm!
Watch for more rescues as the completion of our renovation nears! For information call...

We're Moved in!!
That's the good news. The bad news is that our garage will not be equiped for animals for about 3 weeks yet.
We will not be accepting any animals until then. It will be undergoing a complete renovation, from garage to ultra small animal facility!
The good news is that we do still have hay available and grooming services available.
Contact us by email
or call 514-697-5718
or 514-386-0227
Except for hay sales, we are now closed until March 6!
7 more days till the big move!
All our guinea pigs have been placed, so there will be no adoptions, rescues, or boarding until March 6,
possibly even a bit later.
We do still have hay available for sale.
Sorry for any inconvenience, and we hope to see you at
the NEW Jiggley Piggley Farm location very soon!
No Boarding This Spring Break!
Due to the fact that our move will occur during spring break week, we will not be
taking in any boarders from February 26th - March 8th.
Also, we are not taking in any rescues from now till March 8th. Other than that, it's business as usual!
Hay, grooming and boarding (except between the mentioned dates) are still available. Sorry for any inconvenience, and we hope to see you at the NEW Jiggley Piggley Farm location very soon!

We will be relocating to Valois in Pointe Claire, very soon!
A few adoptions have eased the worries I've been having and plans for renovating the "guinea pig room"
are swirling in my head. It's going to be GREAT!!!

We will be relocating to Valois in Pointe Claire, mid-February. The task of moving your average
household is daunting enough, but try throwing in a guinea pig farm into the mix!
All joking aside, it has been an unusually dry Christmas season, and moving in just eight weeks is a worry.
Several of our own guinea pigs had recently been returned to us, and 4 are already in foster homes.
The room designated for the guinea pigs in the new home is a bit of a wild card right now. There are a couple
of renovations, including proper heating, to be done in order for it to be up to Jiggley Piggley Farm standards.
It is the first time in 8 or 9 years of doing this that I feel I may be heading for an unmanageable situation.
I hear about rescues getting into trouble this way, and I always have done my best not toover extend myself.
It's pretty stressful to feel like maybe we're going to have some real trouble quite soon.
So, once again I appealling to our regular clientelle to please get the word out...we have many really nice pairs of
guinea pigs needing new homes, preferably permanent, but fosters are also very welcome.
Feel free to contact us at any time for further information...

Josh and Grobin in their new home.
It took almost 2 years, but along with his little friend Frodo, G.P. finally has a home of his own!
Looks like some changes are in store, but we won't be going far!
It's business as usual at the Jiggley Piggley Farm for now, although to facilatate our relocation,
we won't be taking in any more guinea pigs until after our move.
We DO HAVE MANY guinea pigs still needing new homes though, and we
will still be offering boarding, grooming and hay as usual!
So feel free to call...514-697-5718 or 386-0227

Up until this point we have not used foster homes. We have kept our numbers low and kept all
our guinea pigs on site. The past week has produced several returns and a few unwanted guinea pigs,
including a pregnant female. Under the present circumstances I would really appreciate placing that
female, and possibly one more pair, into foster homes for a short time, while I attempt to place a few
other guinea pigs in permanent homes.
If you would be interested in housing a piggy or two for a short period of time, feel free to call

On the other hand....if you are looking for the perfect family pet, give us a call!!!!

Visit us on Sunday at the Pierreffonds Animal Hospital Open house!
Rather unphased by the death of his buddy, Hoppy enjoys a late summer afternoon in his pen.
I haven't updated the website in a few weeks....that's not like me!
I have a pair of adult females to post and a new male arriving this evening. I will make a real effort to have them
posted by Friday!
Also, it looks like we may be attending the Beaconsfield Pet Fair on Saturday! So little time and so much to do!
Our little Doppy died last night. Had a good life before he came to us, and a good 3 years
since he arrived, as well.
His unbelievable cuteness always enjoyed by visitors as he and Hoppy
lounged in their outdoor run.
Doppy was around 7 years old.
Everyone at the Jiggley Piggley Farm, especially his constant companion Hoppy, will miss him alot!
Little Whooshi and her baby Sooki are back for a visit at the Jiggley Piggley Sleepaway

This Fredericton, New Brunswick Family of guinea pig lovers made Jodie's Jiggley Piggley Farm a stop on their
family vacation!
Apparently the highlight of their Montreal trip and very flattering for us!
Seven new squeekers arrived from the SPCA today.
A young mother and her three female babies, and an adorable trio of adult females.
Check the adoptables section for photos tomorrow!
Unfortunately the SPCA has several more guinea pigs looking for homes. We just couldn't fit them all
in here! There are a couple of male/male pairs, a daddy and his young male baby and several long hair
white guinea pigs. The white ones have not been handled much and are a bit shy, but it could be worked through
with some regular, gentle handling and really good hand-fed veggies!
Some of them may end up here in the following weeks, but the SPCA always welcomes visitors if anyone is
interested in them.
Whooshi Jr. popped! She had three babies early Sunday morning. Unfortunately, one was not living,
but the other two are healthy and adorable!
They both seem to be Abyssinian, but if their hair grows longer, they will be of the funky variety! :)
Whooshi Jr. is going to POP!
Well it was unussually quiet here on the JP Farm...until yesterday!
Check the adoptables section to see what wiggled in on the weekend!
Perfect outdoor shelter for rabbits or guinea pigs. Do as we did and install outside
or the run with a hole for entry to house.(picture to follow) This way it does not take up
any space in the pen. Or...put it right in the run for shady, dry shelter any time.
Sells new for about $85.00...this house is in excellent condition ONLY $30.00!
Ernie and Bert
Ernie and Bert were born last December here at the Jiggley Piggley Farm.
They are the offspring of two of our recently adopted guinea pigs, Lady and Tramp.
These lucky boys are growing into handsome young guinea pigs under the care of their new owner, Maisy R.
Great picture Maisy!

Don't get any funny ideas! We don't take HAMSTERS!
But, Little Miss Frizzle is just so darn CUTE, how could I say no?
It happened that she turned up in the back yard of a Hudson home. After several attempts to place her,
they called us. I really would of said no, except that a couple of our Jiggley Piggley customers happen to
be BIG hamster lovers. A quick call to them and Miss Frizzle had a new home!
On that note.....

A BIG THANKS to MontrealCritters.com
Our perviously unappreciated guinea pigs are enjoying a large supply of high quality feed
thanks to Karine and Juan at Montreal Critters!!
MontrealCritters.com is a new online store to meet the needs of all your small and furry friends!
We're FULL until further notice!!!!
Adoptions have been very slow since before Christmas. There are still plenty of guinea pigs
that need homes though! I'm expecting a few new adoptables by Sunday.
Watch for new bios and pictures!
Feeling the need to dump the Christmas pictures, I shot a couple of dozen photos in this session, and this is the best I could come up with!
Kinda cute, but not really what I want in an adoption photo.
Things don't always fall neatly into place when taking pictures of animals.
Papi and Niblet were both taken in as rescues. Quite to everyone's surprise, the degu and the rabbit
became fast friends! They are now inseparable and do actually share a cage.
Gosh they're cute together!
We're looking forward to possibly having Papi and Niblet as boarders in the near future!
One of the neat things about the Jiggley Piggley Farm is that we get to meet some really fun and creative people!

Here's an interesting tidbit I discovered on the net this morning....
Guinea Pig Training Tricks From The Movie Bedtime Stories
After spending Christmas at the Jiggley Piggley SleepAway Camp, Max
anxiously waits in his carrier for his family to pick him up .
And THANK YOU to everyone who gave one (or two) of our little friends a new home in 2008
and to ALL of our terrific customers!!
Lady and her new family
SodaPop & PonyBoy
(Jodie just read "The Outsiders" in grade eight English class.)
How cute is Thumper! He likes his Jiggley Piggley Farm hay!
Oh oh!
We're full!
I hope this little lull in adoptions is almost over!
We have some real cuties waiting for new homes.
Fluffy M.
Little Fluffy M. is regular customer at the Jiggley Piggley Farm. He lost the use of his hind legs about 1and a half
years ago. He does retain some mobility, and with some effort, isable to move around his cage.
Fluffy is a real foodie and has never lost his vigorous appetite. As long as this continues, and he maintains a
healthy weight, it's pretty safe to assume that Fluffy feels pretty good, despite his limitations.
Luckily for him, Fluffy has a family that has decided to stick with him.
He is a long haired guinea pig, and due to his low mobility, requires frequent grooming to help him stay clean.
Loss of muscle tone in his hind quarters also results in anal impaction, and this needs to be cleared on a
regular basis. We take care of these needs for Fluffy, while his family keeps him well fed, and his cage extra clean,
which is vital to Fluffy's ability to stay as clean, and as dry, as possible.
I think it's important to point out that a decision regarding an animal like Fluffy could go both ways,
and niether path would be the wrong one, as long as the animal is not allowed to suffer unduly.
It's a personal decision, and Fluffy's family felt they could continue to meet his needs, as long as he was still able to enjoy the guinea pig's greatest pleasure...EATING!!
One thing I must say though, many healthy, young guinea pigs are left here when children lose interest in them, and parents
do not want to continue caring for them. I think Fluffy's family is providing thier teenage daughter an invaluable
model of compassion, commitment and responsibility.
My too cute volunteers at the BEACONSFIELD PET FAIR & ANIMAL ADOPTION DAY
Unfortunately, it was too cold for the guinea pigs at the pet fair. They only stayed for about an hour, then we decided to
send them home. Our table did remain up and running, but with no guinea pigs, we didn't attract too much attention.
But, in the short time they were there, we found what we think will be the perfect home for Brian and Stewie! That
made the day well worth it.
The great thing about being around guinea pigs is....
You just can't help but smile!!
