It’s true they can’t be on their back, but this is ok.
This was a transitional moment as my wife was getting her into nail trimming position when I caught the look on her face and decided to take a picture.
I was making a joke in this case. Daisy is actually the easy one. She got her nails trimmed quick and easy after this picture was taken.
Rose is more trouble. She’s very aggressive about defending her bodily autonomy. She fights and bites, and wiggles around. My wife tries to get one foot done on Rose every week.

Ah, sorry. It’s been a while since I’ve had any little piggies (miss them a lot). You’re right, they are fine like that. Thankfully both our girls (Thelma & Louise) weren’t bad for nail trims as long as there was a few leaves of romaine infront of them.
Miss those little cuties.
Edit: that’s Daisy in the pic? Regardless, she’s so cute.
Weird question: have you ever played xylophone music around them? My girls would chill and purr whenever they heard some chill xylophone parts in songs.
One year when I was setting up the tree for Christmas, I was playing Christmas music and they reacted like something was going to kill them.
My wife and I noticed that they hate every phone notification sound. They aren’t afraid, but they’ll make their angry sound whenever they hear it.
Likewise for the little sound the Roku makes every time you press a button on the remote. When I’m trying to pick a movie, it’s like the guinea pig version of “quit it!” every time I move to the next part of the list.
Their spines are fragile, I don’t think holding them like this is good and may be uncomfortable for the little pig.

Yes, it’s Daisy getting her nails trimmed.
Both are adorable.

We have not.
They seem to enjoy classical music.
They don’t like rock or jazz.

Haha, it was always classical xylophone music. They quite liked Toccata.
