My beautiful little lady has been with me a year today! 🥳❤🥳 Can’t believe it’s been a year!
She’s very much an intelligent, deep-thinking piggy, always something she’s pondering bless her (unlike her loopy cagemate!) :hmm:
She’s a quiet little girl but over this year she’s changed so much from the terrified, nervous girl she was and is such a great wifey to her Luigi, other than checking out the new fuzzy man in her life from across the room recently!:)) She’s utterly gorgeous and although it took a while for her to come out of her shell, seeing her popcorn and take food from my hand these days makes me so happy! ❤

Although Jess and her had their ups and downs for the first few months, she was amazing with her at the end before my girl left for the bridge looking after her, sleeping outside her beds and grooming her so sweetly. And was Luigi’s counsellor when he lost her and was so depressed as she was such a mum to him. So thanks Lolo you amazing little piggy xx

And massive thanks for her piggy train to get her to us @YvonneBlue and @eileen :D:D I wouldn’t have had her in my life if it wasn’t for you guys going out of your way and being so kind! xx

A few lovely Lolo pics :)
Our first cuddle ❤

(You can just imagine the rolled eyes on that one! :)))

Hopefully lots more years to come! :luv:
 
Happy Gotcha Day Aliona.
I wish you many happy years with your gorgeous girl. Where did that year go, I can't believe you've had her that long!

Thank you! She’s the quietest piggy I’ve ever had, taken her a while for her true personality to shine through but she’s such a little sweetie!
I know, it’s utter madness! Still call her my ‘new’ piggy sometimes! We’ve spent lots of time together this year anyway!:doh::)) xx
 
Happy Gotcha Day Alina.
It doesn’t seem a year already since you first introduced her to us.
I do hope she had some special treats for her great day.
 
Thanks @Rivervixen :D I love that pic, it was just when she’d decided I wasn’t a monster! The first time she’d actually come to me on her own and trusted me a bit (or just didn’t want Luigi nicking all the grub!), had been here months but felt very special!:luv:xx

Thanks @Merab's Slave :D
She’s had lots of tasties already, sure lots more to come! :drool: :D
Should be out for a run really but I managed to bang my head and eye nicely during a seizure Sunday night and had a bit of concussion (I’m guessing from the puking and fun I’ve had since!), not quite right so she’s stuffing her face in the cage and can come out for a marathon tomoz! Sure she’ll forgive me! x
 
Happy Gotcha Day gorgeous little lady ❤️ Hope you are going to get a nice Birthday Treat 🥬 🥕 🥦 🌽
I can’t quite believe it’s been a whole year since you arrived and joined lovely old lady Jess and her young Italian stallion Luigi x

Thanks Jane! She’s had lots of little ones but another lovely present has arrived from a certain Auntie Jane lady in Cornwall! :D :love:

They’re gorgeous! She’ll be loving a bit of pink-backed alpaca I’m sure! :D:luv:

Yes my lovely friend Jane @Bill & Ted made us two of these for Christmas and I adored them, so did Lolo :), but she felt bad she hadn’t spoilt all four of my piglets so she’s made another two so everyone has their own! Or two just for Aliona as she hogged the last one and Luigi couldn’t get near! Very comfy :D

You’re blooming amazing Jane! All the piggies say thank you! x

Happy Gotcha Day to Aliona. So pleased that I could be part of her happy ending.

She looks so different from the very scared piggy we collected last January. I am so happy that she found a home with you @alpacasqueak .🐾♥

Thanks Yvonne! :hug:You were the biggest part of her coming, no way I could’ve made that journey to and from Devon!
Aw I’m so pleased you think she’s changed! Her confidence has doubled weekly I think since she arrived! Thank you :luv:xx
 
Happy gotcha-day beautiful girl! You really do have the best mummy and are so loved :love:❤❤❤❤ Hope you guys have a lovely day!

Sorry - the name change came about because after my gorgeous Odin, I just can't bare to carry on the Marvel names in the future! Sorry for any confusion 🙂 xx

No I totally get it too, if mine was Sheepy or Jesssqueak or something I couldn’t bear to see that so often! No confusion! :)
I had Holly and Gizmo the rats at my mums house, then had Maisy and Poppy the rats when I got my flat, then Rosie and Daisy the cats moved in!
I got the chins and was so hung up on my Poppy I had Poppy(2) the chin! After them there were no more mammals with flower names! :)) Time for a change! So now it’s randoms!
Apart from Hamish, him and the little agouti baby got on so well he had to be Angus! xx
 
Congratulations on your 'gotcha' day Aliona 🎉
What a beautiful girl :wub:

Sorry to hear you've had more seizures :(

Hopefully you can sit, giving her quiet cuddles & recuperate :nod:

Can't believe it's a year gone by already! Xx
 
Happy Gotcha Day Aliona :yahoo:
The piggies that were originally very frightened, become the most sweet and gentle things ❤
Glad to hear she is continuing to open up and trust you. It must have been a real leap for her, but she’s definitely ended up in the right place. 1 year of luxury, with many more to come :)
 
I can't believe it's been a year since you took on this beautiful girl. Happy belated gotcha day aliona, here's to more happy years with your lovely slave 😁 xx
 
Thanks everyone! :hug:Sorry brain slightly mashed atm! :mal: x
Thanks so much though, you lot make me all so tearful! Feeling a bit rubbish atm with my idiot brain and not giving the pigs my all, hope they still think I’m a good mum!
