Never thought I'd return a Guinea because of its looks :(

[Bill & Ted]

I suppose if you kept it, it would be a conversation starter at the bbq?

I’m sensing it was a Medusa moment that turned this poor creature into stone.
Bless
Lol

Oh good lord, the poor little thing. What have you been told about not returning piggies to shops? He'll likely be treated even worse now, and his chances of finding a forever home are pretty much zilch. Still, at least you don't have to look at him. Thanks for sharing that - it really brightened my day.

Poor piggie! At least they’ve tried to make her prettier by applying pink lipstick

It just looks like something you bring home from school at the end of term. Just think yourself lucky you can send it back, my house is full of this stuff my dear little granddaughters have made for me x haha

Wow. That poor creature really does tend towards the grotesque. Like a freak show ornament.

 

[Tigermoth]

It puts me in mind of the video for Lionel Ritchies “Hello”. Close, but not quite right...

i must admit i did mull this over before i sent him back, i wondered what kind of life he would lead if he wasn't with me. but i just couldn't keep him

 

[Willow&Sky]

haha there is definitely something not quite right with him. A vet visit perhaps!?

Yes my fridge is covered with drawings of piggies who look even more mutated than that courtesy of my junior piggy whisperers age 7 and 4. The piggies tend to look like sausages with forks for feet and whiskers, often with equally badly drawn volcanoes and dinosaurs in the background for some reason

At my local garden centre they sell roadkill hedgehog garden ornaments with a car tyre print through the middle of it and its legs spread out like bambi on ice. Bit weird

that's Splat the hedgepig

 

[Janey]

To be honest, it reminds me of what the kids used to bring home when they were at primary school!

 

[Claire W]

What... is...that...? Kind of feel a bit sorry for it though

I just liked it because it was different and it always brought a laugh to the garden. Sadly no garden anymore so he was donated to a friend along with the patio gargoyle
