I thought it‘s finally time to start a thread for our piggy tribe.
Buttons & Pewter
The two girls came to us at the beginning of May this year. We got them from a family who were unlucky enough to have 2 pregnant pet shop sows. So they aren’t technically sisters but I still like to call them that.
Unfortunately, their relationship has never been as good as I would’ve hoped as both of them are pretty dominant. They tolerate each other’s presence and happily share a food bowl at dinner time. Some days it even appears as if they‘d like each other. Thankfully, they won’t have to be together for the rest of their lives as they will be paired with a neutered boar each.
(Pewter left & Buttons right; This is literally the best picture I have of them together because the only time they can be found in the same place is when they‘re eating or bickering )
Pewter hoping for a treat:
Enjoying her (almost) daily snuggle:
Buttons having a snooze in her most favourite hidey:
And here she is enjoying a rare cuddle (she much prefers floor time):
Here‘s Buttons having a nap in the hay bag and Pewter telling her off for sleeping in her food
Benito & Cornelius
As some of you will already know, Buttons came to us pregnant and gave birth to two baby boys almost 4 weeks ago. Benito and Cornelius are currently living together in their own cage and enjoying their bachelor life. Once neutered and safe they will hopefully be great husbands to our sows.
Newborn babies:

(Cornelius; his full name is Lord Cornelius Pigglesworth btw )
A rare photo with both of them sitting still:
Cornelius would also like to show off his best hedgehog impression:
