Daily dose of adorable. My calico and skinny pig just chillin’. #guineapig #cat #caturday #calico #skinnypig
@TheOtherLisa3 a skinny pig is a hairless Guinea pig. It’s not a contagious disease or anything, and she has fur on her nose and feet. Just her dominant genetic trait means she’s mostly hairless… like a Sphinx cat, I guess. They’re popular for those with allergies that the hairlessness might mitigate. I adopted her from a woman who was allergic to her, even though she’s a hairless variety.
She looks like a Canadian house hippo, just with bigger ears.
