Isn't that the name of her "brother"?

Jackson is actually the name of the original bro. It's funny you ask because as she was going to bed last night she mentioned something about how Ryan could be just like her brother. I'm not sure if Ryan is a replacement of or and addition to Jackson.

She is a smart girl OBVIOUSLY he is named after Ryan Howard of the fighting Phillies! DUH Very cute. Yep, can smell the poop from here!

Boy, does this bring back memories. He's soooo cute and Liv looks so happy with Ryan. I can hear him making that guinea pig sound as I look at his pic. Is that a real carrot? Looks fake. Have the cats discovered him yet? lv g/ma

The poop smell isn't too bad. Yet. I can't wait for those 95 degree days when you get that special aroma of poop and hay.

Isn't that carrot cute? You can't see it in the pic but there's also celery. They're "crispy crops" made from an all natural vegetable material. Chewing on these will help keep his teeth healthy.

joyshaw1: I know that exact sound! My niece and nephew had a guinea pig who made that sound all the time.

Kath: Is the smell worse than a litter box? (I've never had a cat or guinea pig, but I do know about rabbits.)

Snapfish: Well if you had a rabbit then you know all about cleaning the crap out of a cage! oy I had a rabbit and thats all he did...eat and shit (and occasionally chewed through electric cords when out of his cage, yes they were plugged in)! Smells not too bad if you keep up with it, just giving Anna *crap* b/c my mantra pretty much is "if it doesn't poop outside we are not considering it for a pet"

Kath: I have two a rabbits and they are poop machines. I swear more comes out than goes in. You're right, the smell isn't bad if you keep up.

You're so right - more totally comes out than comes in. Jeebus!
