Teenage Guinea Pig
It's been a funny old year. Having lost Lilith and Brunel back in the spring 
;Lilith wasn't unexpected but Mr Brunel was a shock even with his age... I was left with a bigger hole than I'd realised and withdrew from the forum and all things pig for a while.
We adopted Agatha and Christie to join Wenlock and Wellington from the Burford Blue Cross. They were extemely skittish and obviously hadn't really been handled........
The gang were left to settle and sort out their respecitve rankings. It was a bit tense for a time, but they got there. The four of them do seem to really enjoy each others company now, napping and munching away in a variety of different combinations. Wellington (who was becoming very lazy and a little plump even for a big girl) has perked up and slimed down and is enjoing playing with the two youngsters and generally being more active.
Anyway time has passed, my heart has mended a little after the loss of my fav. two old timers and the newbies are finally settling in. I'm ready to start reading and interacting on the forum again and thought I'd share some new, updated pics of the current gang.

Christie in the front with Agatha and Wellington behind
The magical dissaprearing Wenlock - I really don't have many good photos of her!
Christie and Agatha
There's a Wenlock!
The two newbies are so much fun to watch. Agatha is a bit of a nut job with a very cheeky personality. Christie is still quite shy but we're getting there and at least she's not hiding every time I go anywhere near the run. Now we've just got to work on the handling - wish me luck!
