Am trying to bond the two 5wks boys, Irwin and Rudolf, with Derek - now known as Gay Uncle Derek :? :lol:
Poor boys...it's not easy to explain to your young son either :roll:

hi

Thanks - that's probably what they'll inscribe on my headstone after I've died of exhaustion taking care of them all :lol:

I am definitely in over my head here - spent £300 already and need more accomodation for larger groups and bonding now - not to mention neutering - Charlie is booked in for Friday...I've been awake since 5am working it out - It will have cost £1000 by the time I'm done - not including food and bedding for them :shock:

Here's hoping they bond like nice piggies (yes I know - not a cat in hell's chance :roll: )

I did put my feet up with choc digestives and a magazine on Wednesday though :D

I believe Cheryl (spg) has 300 animals at the mo..... :shock: :shock: :shock: I am a lightweight :lol:
 
hi

Delores is such a sweetie too - she let me style her hair while waiting for the camera - just sat there while I got her fringe off her face! I was originally going to try and rehome her once her babies are weaned (she's about a month gone I think) but now I dunno.... :love:
She is terrified of handling, but her reaction is to be quiet - whereas Abigail isn't timid at all, and she bites :shock:
I picked Abbey up yesterday and all you could hear was snapping teeth - eeek - she missed though :lol: If you put one finger under their chin when holding them it keeps their head (and teeth!!) up - but I'm a total coward with animals :?
Abbey IS looking for a home once I'm sure she's not pregnant - the breeder seemed to think she's infertile, and she's too old to safely have babies now, so needs a good home with someone brave :D

She may go as a matching pair of slippers with Charlie - same breeder - who's being neutered on Friday - He's also confident and might not mind nipping although he hasn't tried so far - He's enormous! I can hardly pick him up - real fluffball and very gorgeous. He loves his food and sleeps on top of his food dish - which is usually invisible under his massive furry bulk - the cage shakes when he binkies :lol: He was originally paired with Abigail by the breeder, so I'm hoping they will still be friends once he's lost his manhood?

What little sweethearts - even the bitey ones! I wish I could help you out but I cant - used to have piggies years ago - I do love them so :love:
 
hi

well it's not too bad at the moment - I can just about manage time and money wise - have turned the living room into an animal room and put the telly and settee upstairs :roll: but when Beatrice, Delores and Florence have had their babies I know I can't keep them all - no room! no time! no money! That will be a hard decision - especially as I don't intend homing babies - I'm hoping for one baby per mum but Florence is enormous already poor girl - she can hardly walk :?

Sarah 'I can't' is just not a good enough excuse :lol:
 
hi

well I have too - carpeted wall to wall with guinea pigs :lol:

As I only have a 2 up 2 down house I've divided my bedroom between two sets of windows with a 'wall' of wardrobes - bed etc on one side - and dismantled the futon from downstairs which is squashed on the other side with a telly - It looks erm...creative :? :lol:

Downstairs is just sacks of grass, hay, megazorb, cages....and a cooker, washer and fridge :D

I'm doing an interior design course and my next project is a time and motion study of my home - I doubt my tutor's come across this type of home before - he'll think I'm mad...erm...it could set a trend?? 8)
 
"Sarah 'I can't' is just not a good enough excuse "

Crikey - my hubby has only just got used to the buns! :lol: Do you keep the piggies indoors - just out of interest?
 
hi

Yes they're all in the 'ex-living room' - well the boys are in the kitchen because I've heard you can't bond boys if there are females around? - I knew nothing about piggies 3 weeks ago! In fact I didn't even like them 3 weeks ago - how your life can change on an impulse decision :shock:
I've heard also that they feel the cold, unlike rabbits, so mine will be staying indoors - it'd be way too quiet without them now!

I just think they're wonderful little animals - I'm so glad I followed my heart for once :love:
 
OMG! I bet it is soo loud at tea time aint it Elve with all the squeaking I lurve piggie squeaks! :lol: :lol:
