Merab's Herd

Dear Priscilla and Micah,
I don't think that there is anypig who hates it more than me to be taken to a different place to 'spend a few days'.
So I really feel your pain!
And to be left alone, starving and feeling neglected! There are no words for this kind of behaviour. The next thing you know, you will be looking for a place to sleep and there won't be anything but a stable...

As you know, I'm pretty quick with my teeth. Trust my words ... this always works.
Look really cute and hungry and totally innocent. And as soon as your slave is close enough give her a heart felt nip. Don't break the skin! And keep looking innocent.
Gets them every time. ;)

I’m hiding so you can’t see me and take me out again

It’s so exhausting driving home and then having to check the cage is still ok.
A handsome chunk needs to keep up his energy.

Thank you to the One and Only Thea as well as Tessy for your support and encouragement..
Tessy, we hope your slave is feeling better. When we’re not well we like Aniseed flavour syringe food. Maybe that would help your slave too.

Dear Priscilla and Micah,
glad to hear that you're back home. :D
I don't think that our slave would be tempted by syringe food, but I'll get Billie to suggest it. :whistle:

How long have you had pheobe? Just wondering if we are doing it wrong as we have a small hooded bed we use for handling but we have only had them 5 days. Sophia our tri colour seems very content with handling already and will bottle feed and hand feed already even from our 3 year old.

Elsa or ginger and white one will only tollerate a few minutes of handling in the pet bed but will take from the bottle and take treats from the bed she is also happy to jump in nd out of the bed when we put it in the enclosure.

We lost Phoebe earlier this year. Priscilla and Micah haven’t used the hooded bed yet, just popped in and out of it. They love the fleece corner tunnels best, however the tunnel has to be in the ‘right ‘ part of the cage!

5 days isn’t long for new piggies to settle. As prey animals it takes time for them to feel safe. Be patient. The fact that yours sound as if they’re settling is a good sign.
A lot of guinea pigs never like being cuddled or held at all.

Welcome to the forum. Elsa is a pretty girl
 
Dear Forum Friends,
We have some exciting news. Well Micah thinks it’s exciting, I’m reserving judgement.
On Thursday 2 sows are coming to live with us.
Micah is excited because they’re girls!
I will wait and see if they are prepared to bow at my paws and acknowledge me as Supreme Pig.
Slave said that if I can get on with them we will share a cage and Micah won’t have to give me his undivided attention any more.
We are told their names will be Naomi and Ruth and Slave assures me she will still think I’m the prettiest girl ever.
Let’s just wait and see.
I expect she’s going to take lots of pictures.
Love from Priscilla

Dear Priscilla

I hope that you like Naomi and Ruth and you can all be friends. Micah will still love you and think that you are still his best girl.

Wheeks
Lexi and Thea
 
Priscilla I hope the newbies are nice. Of course you will still be the prettiest piggy. I really hope you all play nicely and have a good bonding day. How exciting. Can’t wait to see pictures.

PS - Mica pace yourself. Don’t over do it.
 
Oh Priscilla, that news has made my day, how blooming exciting! But of course you will always be the prettiest Supreme Diva Pig at your house gorgeous :wub:
Tell Micah I hope he has fun when he meets Naomi and Ruth! 😈😉:))
 
It’s a bit strange here today.
Our travel carrier was made ready but our slave hasn’t told us we’re going anywhere.
All the boxes of hay have been moved out of our room - we hope we’re not going to be starved!
Slave muttered something about the new girls coming tomorrow which is why everything has been reorganised.
Slave said it would make her very happy if we all got on well so we could share a cage.
Micah thinks that’s ok - they’re girls.
I’m going to wait and see.
Love from Priscilla
 
Oh this is extremely exciting news! Priscilla can have a nibble and natter with some lovely lady friends while Micah rumbles his manly boar stuff around the cage. I do hope that every pig gets on well together x

New cage exploration

Settling in and hopefully talking to the neighbours. There’s certainly been some noise.

The bonus today was new piggies and meeting the lovely @Wheekallweek and her equally lovely family.

Naomi was spotted sleeping out in the open this afternoon- such confidence in a new setting.
Ruth decided that underneath the tunnel was better than in it.
They are both such characters.
Micah was spotted looking longingly through the dividing bars.
Maybe tomorrow Priscilla will deign to notice the new neighbours :D
