Pepper & Pringles Thread

Dear Pepper

I am in deep mourning after losing Lexi 5 days ago, but I thought I'd right to you to congratulate you on succeeding to get yummy airline snacks while in your nebuliser box. Keep up the good work!

Your friend who is missing Lexi

We hope you are doing okay and not missing lovely Lexi too much ❤️. I now get my breakfast in my box, I have slave well trained!

Sending hugs

Is the nebuliser working?
I’m not sure, I think we should be doing it twice a day which I am going to start doing today, I have halved his Metacam dose over a few weeks and he has lost a small amount of weight each week but we are talking 20g in total, as he doesn’t exhibit an external symptoms it’s very hard to tell but if his weight drops below a certain point I will increase the medication again, it is all a bit trial and error.

Dear Pepper,

I am still missing my best friend Lexi, but I have heard Slave and Aunty Lilli talking about some baby girls that may be arriving soon. I hope we all like each other so I can teach them how to be GPU reps. Then I can pick the best one to take over from me as Shop Steward. I'm getting old now so feel the need to retire.

I'm glad you now have your slave well trained and that my advice to you worked. I don't always get feedback you know.

Dear Thea,

That sounds exciting that you may have soon new friends soon, we do hope one will be able to take over and let you enjoy your retirement!

Slave has been distracting me with snacks, but when they scrub out I let her know by popping the lid off my box!

Lots of love

Pepper
 
It doesn’t take much to give the boys a new routine, we nebulise pepper around this time in the evening and we give them both some forage, pepper in the nebuliser and Pringle in the cage, Pringle has taken to wheeking demanding his forage each evening now 🤣

Well done Pringle you gorgeous boy. Make sure you get what’s yours. 😍
 
Dear Pringle

Good boy for demanding your forage every evening! If Slave is a bit late with my forage (after peaflakes and apple chunks) I tell her off good and proper. Forage is yummy. Make sure you always get your forage on time, every time Pringle. Pepper had to demand his airline snacks in his nebuliser box and needed my help to get them. You haven't needed help you clever boy.

Yours hoping yummy forage is always on the evening menu.

Dear Thea

Mummy got the hint and gave me my forage whilst pepper got whisked of to the box of doom, it was a bit late but I did my “thug face” to let her know I was not impressed!

This nebuliser is brilliant I get to eat my breakfast in peace!

This king of the castle is due a hair cut this week!
We are going off on a little staycation at the weekend so he needs to look nice for that!

I have almost finished dog groomer training so I’m now a pro with the clippers 🤣IMG_9971.webp

You maybe a pro with the clippers but is Pepper a pro at keeping still and letting you go wild with the clippers?
 
Dear Pepper

Even though I am on holiday at Aunty Lilli's, it has come to my attention that you have been forced to have a Buzz cut. :yikes: How would your Slave like to have all her hair chopped off with no say in the matter? Hey?

I'm very pleased to learn that you gave your Slave a hard time while she was chopping away merrily on your lovely locks. Her excuse may be that you'll be cooler now that the summer has arrived but that is still not enough recompense for cutting off your beautiful wild furdo.

You need to make your Slave realise how unhappy you are with this new "do" and how it makes you look like a different piggy. A piggy's fur is sacrosanct and should never be touched except for the occasional bum bath and groom.

For the next few days or even weeks (you know your Slave best so you can judge for how long) you need to turn your back on your Slave so she realises you aren't happy with her. Ask Pringle to do the same so you show solidarity. (You can always tell him that he may be having a Buzz cut too). Wheek loudly at every opportunity you get eg, when you Slave is on the phone, watching the TV, when she goes out, when she comes in, in fact when she does anything. You haven't got any bars to chew on so how about chewing on your wooden castle to annoy her?

Here's hoping that your Slave never has the audacity to trim your locks without your permission again.

Yours outraged by the way you have been treated

Dear The one and only Thea

Thank you for your concern in regard to my AWFUL hair cut! My mum thinks I’ll be cool now but I look absolutely ridiculous! I tried to make it as difficult as possible for her but she brought back up in!

I will make sure I make her life hell for the next few days, unfortunately I do not wheek so Pringle will have to take care of that! If she thinks I’m going to walk into her hand to go into my nebuliser box she has another thing coming!

Pepper has lost weight again! 😭 I’m worried it’s his teeth, his weight dropped slightly in May but it was still within a range that I was happy with for him, but on Monday it’s gone below that and it was down again this morning! I'm worried it may be dental as they have been leaving their nuggets for the past week and I know Pringle isn’t big on the so it’s pepper not eating them, I also went to hand feed him some burgees reviver nuggets and he just dropped them, I’ve mushed it up and he is tucking in!
I’m going away tomorrow morning and pig dad is at Glastonbury, they are staying with a friend who knows piggies so she will be weighing him daily and top up feeding, vets are booked for Tuesday evening! It’s pretty much exactly a year to when he lost weight last year from his URI!
