The crest

Following up on my last post.

Going by the American Cavy Breeders Association or the Australian National Cavy Council Inc, Wiggley though sporting a crest on his head, is not considered to be  crested. He has too many colours (not his fault)! Wiggley would be called a tri-colour or broken colour cavy because his coat has three colours.

It's complicated. I'm no guinea pig breeder so I'm not concerned about the standards.

I love this little guy the same. To me, he's one special guinea pig with a crest on his head — like he's wearing a crown. Did I mention also that I see a bald spot coming up... poor old little thing.

So, for those who haven't thought about it — what close-up part of your furball do you like to see?
