Ozzy chases the dust pan around while I’m cleaning up :D

Of my two piggies, one of them can be a nuisance with the dustpan at clean out time from being in it to trying to eat it, but even he hasn’t got anything on my rabbit! Patch the bunny is an absolute menace at clean out, I’m sure he thinks he’s helping but he really isn’t!

My bunny also chases after the dust pan, not sure what he thinks is happening bless him :)) Ozzy will try to eat it and bruno just carries on doing what he’s doing. So so cute
 
"What have i told you boys this bowl is for the going in pellets not the coming out pellets" when there is poop in the food bowl.
"you keep pooping I'll keep scooping" during their nightly cage sweep.
"spud I love your bum but not this close to my face" during cuddle time.
"ooh you smell nice! but you always smell nice don't you, yes you do" also a cuddle time favourite.

I'm sure there's more but this is what came to mind first.
 
Every morning when I get Christian out of the hutch for his daily weigh in we touch noses (to say 'hello' in guinea pig) and I say ' Good morning my Christian and how are you today?' Then after he's been on the scales and his weight has been noted 'it's medicine time'
 
"Sandy is going to pee on you if you keep chasing her."

*when rumble-strutting* "Yes, I know. You're a big, tough piggy, aren't you?"

"Who peed in the hidey?"

"Who pooped in the tunnel?"

"Chippy Chipperson, stop humping your sister."
 
I love catching them rumblestrutting.
"Who's a big pig, a big rig pig, a biiiiiig mighty pig? You are!" "Wowee you're a handsome dump truck, vroom vroom vroom."

"That's a good job there using your own dewlap as a chin rest, yes that's a very comfy pig."

"I do not taste like cilantro."

"I am making your salad as fast as I can, there is no need to scream at me!"

"Can you possibly drink a little louder, I can only hear you from ten miles away." "Go, drinky pig, go! Get that hydration to keep your hammy fats plump!"

And to Nutmeg, who especially appreciates conversation - "Who's a little bitty naked pig, nakky nakky nakky!" "How is your skinny skin this morning, skinny skinned piggy?" "You look cold, get inside the sock, yes that's a good girl in her good girl sock!" "LET ME TOUCH YOUR SKINNY SKIN, OH SO SOFT."

I could go on.
 
'Don't bite into the book! Books are not for eating.' When I'm laying on the carpet in the living room during floor time, reading to the piggies.
(Yes, have to confess. I read to them and they really love it. But Odi and Vicky like to come around to taste the book.)
 
'Don't sit behind my feet! Don't want to step on you!'
During cage cleaning when Odi comes to check every few minutes to make sure if everthing is okay. And if the slave isn't messing up.
 
'Stop it! This bell pepper piece belongs to Tessy (or Vicky or ...). Eat your own piece and let Tessy ( or Vicky or ...) eat in peace.'
Mostly to Bonny, sometimes to Odi during evening veggy feeding.

Do you want to be a poo machine
Poop thing

Stop being chonk
Chubb chubb
Stop! Its only your nails clipping!

To both:
Stop being a cereal killer
I'm not a hawk!
Stop squeaking when i pick you up!
 
My piggies love to "help" me clean up their poops. I find myself saying "Thank you, you're so helpful" as they chew on the dust pan, lick my fingers, try to eat their soiled hay out of the dust pan (as well as their poops of course), run around spreading the poops everywhere and tipping the dust pan over when I'm not looking 😂
My little helpers...
 
The piggies: 🐽

"Good morning, how are my favourite boys?...."
"Come on.... veggie time" (this is when the piggy choir starts up..)
"Rufus, the nuggets are coming, stop chewing the bars"
"How much of the hay have you actually eaten? And how much now has pee on it?"
"I'm picking up your poops, so please get out of the way"
"Thor... that was Stark's piece of coriander you big bully"
"Stop eating the bag....."
"Who is rumble strutting now?"
"Just wait one minute.... have some piggy patience..."
"Bobby, please don't make this difficult this time...."
"I'm not chasing you, come here if you want to go back in the cage"
"Good night my boys, don't get up to too much mischief, mummy loves you lots... see you in the morning"

Koda 🐶

"Who's mummy's boy?"
"Who's my bestest boy in the whole world?"
"Love you so so much"
"What would I do without you?"
"Go get your lead if you want to go for a walk"
"Who's mummy's angel cake?"
"Kodakins...."
"Enough..... leave the squirrels alone"
"Say please..."
"Go show dad your new trick..."
"Come on Koda.. bed time" (he's straight up the stairs - it's his favourite time of day)
"What happened, what did you do?"
"come on my little sausage muffin..... come sit with mum"
"Wait...." (we have worked hard on impulse control. If a door opens or he hears something when we are out, I say wait and he will sit and wait, not react)

Woody 🐴

"Hello, my gorgeous boy"
"Have you had a good day today?"
"Please be safe and don't injure yourself" (when I turn him out in the field over night)
"Well that was an over-reaction"
"It's fine, it's not going to kill you"
"Woody, don't be so dramatic"
"Good boy.." (he is the biggest wimp - needs constant reassurance)
"Is that your best giraffe impression?"
"You need to behave today....."
"Love you my handsome boy"
"That is not for you to eat"
"Will you just give over..."



And that is just to name a few! I should record my days 😂😂😂
