Hi Everyone,
As some of you are aware a post was made here last night accusing me of hypocracy, defrauding the forum members in their donations to long term sponsor pigs. I feel the need to respond as these accusations are without proof. None of the long term rescues are being bred from.

The two satin sows shown on both the rescue site www.guineapig-rhoming-norfolk.co.uk (http://www.guineapig-rhoming-norfolk.co.uk/) and on my own site http://vikkisguineas.piczo.com (http://vikkisguineas.piczo.com/) came in to the rescue four weeks pregnant and I have witnesses who can confirm the fact and they would never be bred from while they live out their days here.

My personal site is for enjoying my own guinea pigs and also used as another means of advertising rescue pigs. As stated my my accuser no names had been changed the pigs were obviously the same as the ones on the rescue site and at no time did I attempt to conceal my identity and do not sell pigs. Infact I have never sold a piggy in my life.

I have been accused of Hypocracy by someone I have had long standing personal problems with, there is a very long background to the story comments such as were posted here have been directed to me privately which I tried to address in the best way possible but the person decided to instigate a public witch hunt instead of continuing to resolve the matter personally, they live locally have had in the past and still do have an open invitation and opportunity to visit (as they only live 5 minutes down the road and have in fact adopted piggies from me) which they have never done and I welcome anyone to visit the pigs.

I take the accusations that are unfounded of fraud very seriously and will be taking further advice as what is said personally about me is irrelevant but when the name of the rescue is accused, it affects the people I work with, and also the forum are brought into a personal dispute I will do my best to bring the matter to a conclusion.

I have chosen for this to be a closed thread as I have done nothing wrong and it is not a matter of public debate or place in which to air such problems. A personal matter which has been going on a long time in my opinion should not have been aired on the forum especially when the person concerned had ample opportunity to contact or visit me personally. I will answer any questions regarding the rescue but the personal issue with the person involved is not a topic which I will discuss.

I have contacted the person accusing me via telephone and am awaiting a response.

I have told the moderators I am happy to help in any investigation they chose to instigate.

I am more than happy to answer any pm's with questions about how the rescue in run and welcome any local people who choose to visit.
