Meet Sq**rt and Meeko!🐢🦝
These two adorable piggies were in need of a special home to live out their days. They’re both 5 year old girls, which although can be considered only middle aged for some pigs, most pigs are considered “old” when they hit 5.
Sq**rt (short hair) is blind, and has presumably been so since birth. She moves around her enclosure like any other pig but does mean that careful consideration for her enclosure is needed. It also doesn’t stop her from knowing where and when the food is coming - and I’ve quickly learnt she’ll be first to come out to get the food. She’s also quite partial to a nose rub - we just have to approach slowly and talk to her as not to scare her with our approach.
Meeko (long hair), is a very selective pig with other Guinea Pigs and has deemed to be quite aggressive to most but her bestfriend Sq**rt. This means these girls will remain a pair and not be bonded to the herd - however since being here they have both enjoyed exploring and interacting with the other groups from afar in the safety of their enclosure!
I will always have a special place in my heart and home for special babies, especially older ones who just want to live out their rest of their days in a home. Whether that be days, weeks, months or years, it’s worth it knowing they knew love until the end.
Sq**rt and Meeko were adopted from Cheshire Guinea Pig Rescue 💙
