I took this picture this morning, originally of Merry but it ended up being a perfect snapshot of their three very different personalities. Merry is there happy to do whatever I ask and have his picture taken, with no idea what I'm really doing, Beatrice is desperate to see what's going on and can't possibly miss out on a bit of action and Pepper is not interested in what's going on at all and just wants to sit and eat her hay. It just made me laugh 🙂20230108_125745.webp
 
They all have such different personalities don’t they. Hector thinks he’s “the man” but is a bit of a wuss really. Kiki is quite brave and confident and you can see her virtually “roll her eyes” at Hector’s posing.
Posh is quite serious, sofisticated, confident and enjoys being groomed. She’s quite the glamour puss and knows it. Ginger is still quite girly and can look quite scared or worried of anything that’s not as it should be, she also is sweet natured and lets Posh make all the daily decisions in life.
 
People always seem fascinated when I can describe each one's individual character. Always makes me sad that they're so often regarded as no more than cuddly toys that move.
 
Lexi is full of sass and is a very confident and happy girl but a strictly "no catching me" piggy. She is just starting to enjoy cuddletime but starts to vibrate after a few minutes. It's taken just over a year to get her to this point with lot of patience, a decent diet and a lot of love.

Thea is a bit more timid but still confident and happy, She is a not so much of a "no catching me" piggy. She is such cuddle monster and loves nose strokes, cheek and chin rubs. Again, it's taken just over a year to get her to this point with lot of patience, a decent diet and a lot of love.
 
Priscilla has mellowed over the years but is still a diva. I love the way she tosses her head with all the long fur.
Micah is a thug who really, really likes girls

I’m only just getting to know Naomi and Ruth but they both seem confident and the merest possibility of food sets off very loud wheeking
 
It's Pepper and Beatrice who fascinate me. They've been together their whole lives and may well be sisters but they are complete opposites. Bea has to be involved in everything, can't keep her nose out of anything going on and is a noisy drama queen while Pepper has never shown one hint of being excited about anything. I've never seen her do a zoom or a popcorn. And yet they live together so happily.

I think like people opposites attract, me and my OH are opposites and generally get on very well too 😆 well as long as he knows his place!
