In the press

The Cristofaro family of Quebec have become Instagram sensations with their “Furballs” account, whose stars include two parents, two kids, two guinea pigs, two chinchillas, two dogs, a pig, two ducks and five chickens. Melissa, the mom, says the account is not about money – it’s about how raising animals can teach compassion, kindness and responsibility.

Road hogs! Adorable guinea pig brothers enjoy rides in toy cars, motorbikes and firetrucks!

"Family Keeps Adopting So Many Different Animals. This happy family has dogs, chinchillas, a PIG and so many other animals — and they follow three very important rules."

"Adorable Guinea Pigs go for a joyride. These guinea pigs were born to ride.The cute siblings show off their scooters and their skills in this video. They also put safety first as they wore matching pink helmets."

"Let’s think way back to the Christmas themed family photo. As everyone’s “favorite” tradition, it must always involve ugly patterned sweaters, smiles, and a sleeping relative or pet (we see you, Jade).  It’s a busy household at Fur Balls Inc."

"The guinea pigs always manage to sneak into first class, leaving their pug and bulldog buddies behind them in coach. Passionate about flying like their owner, who happens to be a pilot, they never miss an opportunity to jump in the helicopter!"
