Just gave Sudoku and Tea Cake a bath. I don't bath them much in the winter but it was warm in the house today and decided to try.
Sudoku first, he was very brave, wet his hair in sink, transfered to washing up bowl for shampoo.... Then poured too much shampoo on him, then shrieked, then Sudoku (bless him) nearly shot up my arm and kicked the bottle of shampoo over onto the towel. Some swearing as hugely expensive Gorgeous Guineas shampoo pours all over towel. Then Sudoku far too foamy so had to have 3 rinses!

This is him safely in towel - 'what have you done to me'? look

Then after all that had to tackle Tea Cake who squealed his head off. Then put the shampoo soaked towel in washing machine to rinse and it has filled the washing machine with mega expensive foam rolleyes . I need a sit down but utility room looks like a hay and foam bomb has hit it:)
 
I guess they're typical boys!:p
Bathing is a joy I have to look forward to. I just wanted to give the girls a wee bit longer to get used to me before I abuse their trust. :...
 
You made me chuckle! :(|)
Our house always looks like a complete bombsite on piggy bath day. :(|)
 
I have plans for bath time next week - all 6 of them! Not looking forward to that crazyness. Am recruiting Mum and Gramps to help :D
 
We did ours alst night too. I found doing them one after another easiest then plonking them in the washing basket wrapped in towels while we grabbed the next one... by boar number 4 we were like a well oiled (and foamed) machine!

They do love the hair dryer though!
 
Damn it! At least they are squeaky clean now....until they pee and sit in it :))
 
I seem to end up wetter than the piggies! My jeans are always soaked and I have to get changed :))

I bathed three of my guys the other day and the kitchen looked terrible rolleyes

They don't enjoy it much. One or two of them 'put up with it' but none of them are water guineas. Poor little things, I always feel so cruel. :(
 
Our house is like a hay bomb most of the time!

Bath times are extra messy, our coco does not enjoy them. I tend to whip my shoes and socks off and get in with her for cuddles whilst daddy does the showering!
