we had finally come to the decision that after xmas we would start looking for soome new piggies (following the demise of Rosie and Lotta :( )

well today we wen into Pets at home to get some dog food and a couple of water snails for my father inlaws fish tank (!). we always have a look in the 'rehoming/adoption centre' and today they had a whole litter of 5 piggies ! I asked the lady why they were there as they were so tiny and she said it was because a lady handed them into them, they couldnt 'sell' them instore as they hadnt come from a liscensed breeder.

well we then choose 2 and the assistant called the manager to 'interview' us. I must say i was so impressed. she asked us so many questions and nearly didnt let us have them as she wanted to see a picture of the cage. I explained its a 3ftx5ft C&C cage, we also now have made a mesh lid for protection. she asked us questions about virtually everything to do with GPs and seemed to generally care about what homes they went to.

will post some pics when they have settled
 
Lucy I'm so pleased! That's ace that you have decided to get a few more and adoptions too.

cant wait for photos either.

We have a lid on our cage too and it's a godsend with our other pets.
 
Can't wait to see pics of the new additions and I'm glad they asked all those questions gives one hope for the future of the other wee ones there.
 
the only thing Ive noticed since getting them is that one of them has a kind of supernumery toe ? i.e and extra very deformed toe that looks like a shrivelled up toe that is hanging on by a thread !

I think I may take her to the vets to check it out
 
Congratlations on the new arrivals. Hope they get settled quickly for you.

Hope the toe gets fixed without too much trouble too :)
