I picked up some piggies that were on Guinea Pig Rehome on Saturday. I was initially going for the one but someone asked me to pick up the other two in the herd. They are all staying here for quarentine but I am keeping Sunshine 0:) The two crazy looking pigs are sisters, they desperately needed a hair cut bath & health check, I've put up before & after pics.
This is Possum, we think she could be an abyruvian! (these are the before pics).

And this is my Sunshine on the grass today - she didn't need anything doing so no before & after for her!

These are the after pics. I ended up taking the clippers to Fro because her hair was sooo thick & hot. She even attemped a pop corn on the grass - but a bit too heavy to take off!
Possum just got a good trim.

LOVE them, especially Possum! ;)
 
Thanks she has a bit of Satin in her, my daughter re-named her. As soon as she saw her she said she looks like Sunshine. I couldn't call her anything else :smitten: they all have amazing temperaments.
 
I love Fro :smitten:

with her haircut she looks a bit like my Peppa =]
 
What a difference they are beautiful piggies :smitten: :smitten: :smitten:
 
Well done - what a positive difference you made to their locks of hair!
 
:) I think Sunshine has more than a bit of Satin in her Hils she doesn't look far off a show quality/breeding guinea. She's gorgeous and much like my Twiggy. Love the Hairies too, they look like a Peru thats been well clipped and grown it back and a Texel thats been clipped before. I've clipped all mine off too in anticipation of the heat, they don't look quite so appealing for rehoming now ::)
 
oh wow! Fro and Possum must feel so much cooler without all that matted dirty fur, good job! O0

I am rather in love with Sunshine already - she is quite spectacular & nice & chunky too.
I did wonder if Fro is Texel but the girl said that she'd never trimmed her - who knows. I know that I feel better looking at her now with all that hair gone it made me feel hot....she does still have loads though!
Possum is a funny kind of Peru, she does seem to have rosettes all over her (under all that hair) I don't know much about Perus so don't know if they have that. That was her first cut & wash, I dont know whether to take Possums hair down a bit more before her next wash. They are still a bit stinky despite having a really good bath. I'm going to let the oils get back in their coats for a week or 2 & give it anoter go - hopefully that should bit it then for a while.
I am going to give Sunshine a bath in a mild conditioning GG shampoo tomorrow - depending on weather. I don't want to do all this grooming on the hairies & leave her with a unwashed, yet beautiful coat.
Eve (my daughter) keeps singing 'Bring me Sunshine..' I can't stop singing it myself now! 98)
 
What wonderful looking piggies, all of them! :smitten: :smitten: Your Sunshine is an absolute babe!

I love the other two, they are gorgeous. How different they look with a haircut! (I love Sunshine's piggylips)
They are gorgeous pictures! :smitten:
 
OMG HILERY! I SEE WHAT MY MUM MEANS BY SHINEY GIRL! AWWWH SHES ABSOLUTLY STUNNING You'll have to keep me away from her if I come round again! Oooooh she's yummy!

And the other two look SOOOOOOO fluffy, they're like big fluff balls! They're gorgeous! Awwwwh! OOOO ALL I CAN'T SAY IT AWWWH! They're gorgeousl! The lot of them!
 
Yep I'lll hold her down & you can do the frisking!

I have them in serious quarentine at the moment because of a 'possible' touch of fungal & also as ever poss mites. They're happy pigs though. Fro is so big its unreal! I do think she could do with a better name though!
 
Awwwh looks like i'll have to stay at hilerys a while cause I cannot get over the gorgeousness of sunshine!

Hmmm another name for fro.... How about Beverly? I thought of the film 'Beverly hills ninja' and well, your names hils, and the ninja in this film is fat, and well, fro is big and fat :p lmao
 
If they've never been clipped then they're probably crossbreeds. Perus have 2 rossettes on their bum which throws their hair forward, but sometimes they have more than 2 depending on their breeding ::) If she's got lots then I would suspect a Dolly Mix too- or Bertie's Allsorts ;D
 
Ali your brain works in a similar way to mine - overload! I do pity your mum when I visit!

Its difficult to tell where it goes to be honest - it looks like mine in the morning! she seems to have a rosette on her sides - exactly the same place as her sister Fro. Clipping her was a blinking nightmare. I think you're right with the DollyMix idea, I've never seen anything like it 8)
