Imagine the Guinea pig equivalent of a cross between a locust, Father Jack Hacket (of Father Ted fame) and Hyacinth Bucket (nosey neighbour) and you have Biscuit. She is the boss despite terminal illness and old age. She is also built like a brick outhouse - a leg at each corner and solid.
I'm not sure whether to admire her ingenuity or be horrified by it. Since putting them all together Biscuit has held court. She sits in places that the other piggies must pass and thoroughly inspects them as they go past but doesn't stop them as such (she occasionally chases them for some reason only known to her - I suspect the small ones flick V signs at her
). However since Ziggy has been feeling better she has taken over the hide area that Ziggy was in. She won't let Jet or Binky in there (but Binky loves uncle Jet and uncle Jet isn't messin' with that Biscuit ever again - although they do sleep close together) but Biscuit does let Ziggy in and then squashes her against the wall where they both fall asleep. The only way out is over Biscuit (and this isn't a hide with one hole its a corner curtained off). Ziggy seems totally unconcerned about this - I was worried she was being bullied but she seems happy! Biscuit also lets Ziggy climb over her to get out when she ready.

Biscuit sounds a real character, I love piggies like this... I like the way she holds inspections too. What a boss pig! Can we have a photo?
