Who said pigs don't like their face being touched?! 😅
Generally, most guinea pigs hate their face being touched but not Pam! He's all for the face and chin scratches from his human dad 🥰
Guess what i woke up to this morning!!
6 tiny little babies! 2 mummas went into labour together around 8 this morning while on the grass!
Congratulations mummas!
Sick days don't exist when you run a rescue 🥲
Its all worth it for the piggies tho 🥰
Shane started mounting today so it was time to seperate him from his ladies! I put him in with another young boy and boy can Shane run!!
He has progressed so much over the time i have had him!!
For people who don't know, this is what happens when introducing males. This is not aggressive behaviour nor is it hurting either of the boys! Also the cage was being spot cleaned, that is why it is empty!!
Hello everyone!!
This morning when i went out to check on all the piggies, i noticed that Shane is now walking!
When i put him down on the grass he started running around and pop corning!!
Im so proud of my strong boy 🥰
Hello everyone!! I realised I haven't done an update on Shane for a while now!! He is the biggest boy I own now! He is a huge boy now that he has proper food and care! He has started moving his back legs on his own now as you can see in the video that he is helping push himself around with his feet 🥰
Hello everyone 👋
These are two beautiful big boys that i am trying to bond! Apollo (Brown) and Jett (Black) have never met before and so far their bonding process is going really well!!
When bonding mature adult males sometimes it can take months for them to fully get along and be comfortably housed together! These boys are doing a magnificent job at being friendly! When bonding there is usually teeth chattering, humping and rumble strutting but that is just all part of the domination process! In the video seen you can see that there are all of these things but they are not drawing any blood which is an amazing sign!
The boys are now peacefully walking around eating some grass and are not bothered by each other 🥰
Just thought i would share this short video of Pam enjoying his nose scratches 🥰
Little miss Coco went into labour today, she had 4 beautiful healthy babies! Chip also went into labour at the same time but unfortunately her baby did not survive. Chip is now helping Coco with her little babies 🥺
Also it is important to know that i was not disturbing the girls in labour simply just observing to ensue they were okay and didn't have any issues.
New additions to the Cavy family🥰
Meet Lila (in the jacket) and Violet (on the jacket), i saw them at the pet shop and they looked so sad and i just couldn't leave them there (this is not the pet shops fault at all and all of the staff are lovely and they all look after the animals extremely well), so i brought them home and they are so cute 🥰
ADOPTED!!
Little miss Cookie having her moment on the grass 🐷
New rescue pigs had their first bath in my care, they all did great, they had some moments where they git scared by the hair dryer or a movement made, i trimmed all their nails and sprayed on a mite treatment and deterrent just in case 😊
This video is of me drying, treated and trimming the pigs nails, she was so scared but handled it so well 🥰
Meet the Pigs
This is Pam
Pam is 9 months old and has had one litter of pups to Betty, he was my very first pig and loves cuddles and scratches on his nose and between his ears :)
