Merab's Herd

[Bill & Ted]

Ted is back to his normal self! The ear is all healed up now as good as new! The vet said it could fill up again but could be drained if needed as it’s just a cyst with no infection x

 

[Merab]

Glad to hear it.
Jemimah is very happy about Ted’s ear

Ted says you can come around and take a look at my ear anytime honey x

Just a nice relaxing Sunday afternoon

 

[Merab]

We’re famous
We had our pictures taken today at our vets when we went for our nail trimming.
They now adorn the photo album on the Drove Vet Facebook page.
We think we’re the cutest pets on the page.

Aww! Famous piggies

 

[Grinny Pig]

We are now just over 2 weeks into the newly formed herd and they have really settled well.
Phoebe is still skittish but getting better. She loves everypig.
Merab is just getting on with being Merab.
Priscilla and Jemimah have sorted themselves out and look as if they’re becoming good friends.
Today, for the first time, Priscilla came out of the cage by herself and happily explored further afield. She and Jemimah trotted around together part of the time. She’s learning from Jemimah and giving Jemimah the active companionship she’s been missing since Keziah died.
We’ve had 2 noticeable seasons which was fun.
I love my little herd.

What a lot of cuteness all in one cage!

I'll have to sign up to Facebook then when I get back on Monday to have a look then won't I?

 

[rhymer]

Of course you are the cutest on the page! Piggies are the best!

 

[Merab]

I'll have to sign up to Facebook then when I get back on Monday to have a look then won't I?

Don’t think so.
Can’t you just look at someone’s Facebook page without signing up?

 

[Merab]

Picked some dandelion leaves from the garden today.
They didn’t last long

 

[Merab]

Veggie time

 

[Merab]

And specially for those handsome chunky boars Bill and Ted @Bill & Ted
Love from Jemimah

 

[Sophie B]

I just love your piggies!

 

[alpacasqueak]

They’re all so cute And certainly not hungry! (Actually, no course they are, they’re piggies!) x

 

[Betsy]

@Merab's Slave's piggies are simply GORGEOUS!

 

[Merab]

Thank you.
I agree - they are all gorgeous but I am biased!

 

[Merab]

What to do on a Bank Holiday:
Avoid traffic - stay at home - play with piggies and clean the cage

 

[Merab]

Now for the vacuum cleaner

 

[Betsy]

Very wise to avoid the traffic. We came back after a glorious weekend in the sunshine in our caravan and instead of taking an hour and a half to get home it took 3! Traffic was awful. Now I have to clean out piggies! But I think that's a job for tomorrow.

 

[Sophie B]

Always lovely to get some piggy love!

Hope you had a good break though.
Traffic is why I decided to have a lazy day at home today and drive up to Yorkshire tomorrow

 

[Merab]

Washing machine decided today was a good day to throw s wobbler.
Sooooo...... there’s me lying flat on the kitchen floor wrestling with the filter.
Blockage cleared....... kitchen floor flooded and every bath towel I possess now sopping wet

 

[Merab]

Hopefully now I can get my bag of piggy fleece tunnels and snuggles washed!

Bank holidays are either brilliant or an invitation for things to go wrong! Ours has been a bit of both, mostly good, but last year on Easter Monday my mum stopped breathing and collapsed on my floor and was taken to hospital... so we werent too relaxed when she came for dinner yesterday and kept asking me to check her pulse and oxygen levels! Today we are having a nice piggy afternoon hope your washing machine is ok for the piggy laundry!

How is your mum doing ?

Washing machine seems to be ok but I think the piggy bag may have to wait until I get back from Yorkshire . All my drying space is occupied by towels!

My mum's doing ok thanks, but its a bit unnerving when she insists her oxygen levels are dropping and makes me check them then tells me no hospitals or ambulances anymore... especially on the anniversary of last year's Easter collapse! I fed her vegetarian enchiladas and many strong drinks and bought her a plant so it's all as fine as it can be anyway

Hope the nice weather holds for your trip to Yorkshire and drying your piggy laundry!

 

[piggieminder]

I hope you have a good trip to Yorkshire tomorrow @Merab's Slave. My washing machine is making very strange noises so everytime I use it I have my fingers crossed. Did 5 loads of piggy washing today. I don't usually change everything in all three cages at once but I'm off for a few days with my daughter tomorrow so the stand in slave is in charge, he likes to only have the pee pads to change!

 

[Merab]

Well at last my washing machine cooperated and I managed to get the piggy stuff washed with only minor leakage onto the kitchen floor.
I think I need to call an engineer when I get home.
Have a great time with your daughter @piggieminder

 

[Merab]

Definitely needed the engineer when I got home.
Husband had cleared the laundry basket and washed the kitchen floor at the same time!!

Fortunately the problem wasn’t a major one, easily fixed and didn’t break the bank.

The slave came in and bags rustled
