I agree Niki, and the whole situation has certainly made me think. Don't blame yourself, you did it in good faith and I hope that Irving either comes back to you or goes to a good home.

With thanks for quoting mainly my posts in yours and your opinion.

Seeing as this member has been banned from the forum, i think the likelyhood of her ACTUALLY seeing any of this is quite slim, don't you?.....

If Niki wanted to deal with this situation herself, she was more than welcome to, but she came to us, her online piggie friends.
It was other forum members who found this womans contact details for Niki in the first place.

I totally agree. I am and I am sure others are too, so grateful that Niki has brought this to the forums attention as a warning to others.

When this person has been subjected to such a barrage of insults ... "conniving cow†“I've also notified the people who run the shows that she has been exhibiting at†“Win some rosettes now you cowâ€
“ i'm so sorry a member of the human race can do thisâ€
“ I really do hope……banned from ALL forums that she may frequentâ€.

"despicable pond scum"
....I wouldn't rate your chances of her co-operating and letting you have the pig back at all. Possibly people could have thought about that before ranting and let you deal with the situation yourself Niki.

Niki is dealing with this herself but friends have went of their way to offer advice/information.

She came on here to vent to her feelings, just like any other member would - and found herself getting full support from nearly everyone on here.

If the ex-member hadn't lied to get what they wanted in the first place - comments like the ones above wouldn't have been made. And the ex-member knows full well what the people on here think of people like her so should expect nothing less. She should now do the right thing and return Irving to Niki.
 
Everyday, I get a little reminder of why i prefer animals to people.....rolleyes

Heres hoping you get the little guy back.

I shall remain silent on the subject from now on
 
Well maybe we should just say there there don't worry it's ok to say you are a rescue then breed a pig then sell him on, its not like the animal matters now is it!

Niki you have our full support and if there is anything we can do you know where we are. :)

Don't PIR you are not in the wrong, you have a voice bloomin use it! ;)
 
Lets just hope that the ex member does the right thing (eventually:x) and return this little man back where he belongs. Good luck Niki x
 
Still thinking of you Niki and hoping you get darling Irving back xx
 
Ihave only just found this and have read through it and am in total shock! I am so sorry for you and i Hope you get him back.
 
I would like to thank everyone who has offered help and support to Niki and I know how much she appreciates it. When Niki started this thread it was to vent her upset and anger and to highlight what had happened.

The response from so many of you has been fantastic, and I am hoping that the information which has been gained will result in Irving being returned to Niki.

I think this just highlights what a great forum we have here, and the support we offer to one another! Well done!

I have to wholeheartedly agree. I haven't posted on this thread yet, but have been following it, and I must say it has reduced me to tears more than once. For Niki to have done something like this in good faith and have it thrown back in her face is just awful - and I'm still hoping that you'll get Irving back where he belongs.

Please don't blame yourself, Niki, it is NOT your fault.
 
I've had a reply from her, she's still not confirming a meeting place but someone has been feeding her information & incorrect information at that!
If you are a member on here, reading this, will you please ensure you get your facts right!

At no point have i slagged her off, nor have i said she will NOT meet me, nor have i been emailing everyone about her!

People are not stupid & have a mine of information at their fingertips - information is easily gained!

Deep down, you would think she understands why you and other members of the forum feel the way you do. I hope she can see past what this person has been saying, and put an end to all this. You still have mine, and the vast majority of everyones support x
 
i hope you get your little man back niki me and the gang have our fingers and paws crossed for you it makes me grrrr that someone could do this piggie hugs coming your way
 
You have my support, Niki... and just remember, cold comfort thought it may be, everyone's karma catches up with them sooner or later, so hopefully she'll do the right thing and give Irving back. And I think you had every right to vent as you did (indeed, I think you showed remarkable restraint), so don't blame yourself. You tried to do the best you could, and it's not your fault that someone took advantage of that.
 
Disgraceful that someone has been giving her information, obviously this person has no interest in Irving's welfare! And no Niki you haven't slagged her off at all its the rest of us who have done that, because we are so damn angry that a breeder could come on to a rescue site and abuse trust like this!

I'm so so mad!
 
Niki, I so hope you get him back, I just wish I knew of a way to help you. I'm not so internet savvy as the others that have managed to find links to him. Just know that I'm thinking of you and Irving. I will think of you both constantly. Take care and stay safe xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
I have only just seen this and I am annoyed that someone would do this, i feel sorry for Irving.
Good Luck Niki, i really hope you get this little man back :)
 
Good luck darling i know that all you really want is little Irving to be looked after and loved............
all paws crossed for you from over the bigpond.......god i wish i was closer to be with you right now love xx>>>xx>>>xx>>>
 
Niki you know how we feel as i have said via private message. Our thoughts are with you. x>>

As for the tale tellers. Get back to the dam play ground and grow up. grrrr
 
Omg Niki I have only just caught up with this thread. I am so sorry to hear what is happening, my thoughts are with you and I am keeping my fingers crossed that this little man will somehow find his way back to you x>>

As for the person(s) who is telling tales, to say I am disgusted is an understatement. The one thing I love about this forum is the caring/support that is always offered and shown to the members. I am not a piggie owner myself YET but the whole atmoshere is what makes me proud to be a member.
 
Is there anything we can do to help? If this person won't meet you Niki would she meet one of us and return Irving so that we can get him back to you? Poor little guy, I want him back where he belongs!
 
Obviously the person telling tales is in full agreement of what the ex-member done to Niki/Irving - that is absolutely shocking! I can't believe that a member of this forum would think that what has been done is ok. I don't know how she can live with herself - I feel guilty if I'm late feeding my girls.

The only thing that matters in all of this is Irving and his safety/wellbeing. I really hope she does the right thing and returns him to you. She could give him to someone else to meet another someone else on your behalf to then pass him back to you.
 
Hi all, I'm just catching up with this. This is so awful. I wish I could go and get him for you. Please try to appeal to this persons better nature if that's possible. I do hope she comes around in the end. She could leave him with someone for you to collect from maybe? Good luck x

Any news? xx

Sadly not :(
I had the irate email from her at gone 1am & replied.
Today i remembered that i had emailed ONE person (not a member of this forum), but i wasn't thinking straight in the early hours as my uncle passed away at 1am of liver & renal failure. My aunt had nursed him at home & my mum (her sister) was with there. Obviously it's been a distressing time for everyone. :(

When i realised i had emailed someone i emailed the person who has Irving back again admitting i had & repeating EXACTLY what i had said in my email. No slagging off, i'm very careful what i write so as not to be accused of libel :)
I have also made her aware that what she has done is public knowledge on this forum as i have nothing to hide!

My email was returned.
I re-sent it & so far this one hasn't been returned although no reply from her from either emails, & my exact words were -

"All i want to know is are you willing to let me have Irving or not?
If you are, then where can we meet that is mutually convenient for both of us? OR
if you would rather someone else collect him from you that's fine.

I await your reply regarding a meeting place, as Irving is all i am interested in!"

And again in the 2nd mail i sent

"As previously stated i am only interested in Irving & would appreciate a confirmed meeting place/time to collect him IF you are still willing to let me have him, if not, just say so & that will be the end of it.

I await your reply!"

As much as i want Irving back i'm getting tired of playing her cat & mouse games. She is either going to let me have him, wether she hands him over to me or someone else, or not.
 
Gosh, she sounds like an evil person who is playing games :( I am sure that there are many members on here including me who would be willing to collect him on your behalf if necessary. I really do hope that he is returned to you soon xx

I'm not accusing anyone & whilst it MAY be someone on this forum, it also MAY NOT be. It could be anyone, the ONE person i emailed, someone from another forum or someone not on any forums & a friend of someone who is.

To be honest i am glad she knows that people know. In my opinion, the more people who are made aware that this sort of thing happens the better! :)
