Just wondered for those of you that have older piggies, what sort of signs are there that they are older? I am sort of thinking age 3+
I am asking because for quite a long while I have suspected that Lennie is in fact a fair bit older than I was told when I "rescued" him from his previous owner : I was told he was 6 months old but having more experience now, my 6 month old piggies are still like babies compared to Lennie. He has never grown any since I got him, he put on weight (which is great as he was under fed) and is laid back, likes to rest a lot and has old feet :(if that makes sense). They are quite dry and have extra spurs which we trim, his toes have tufts of grey hair on them. I have just received some perfect paws ointment from GG which I am going to pamper his feet with.
He is just lovely and has stolen my heart totally, but I really do wonder sometimes how old he actually is? :-\
