And so it begins... the epic distraction of having my piggies in my office with me! The constant munching of hay has replaced music. I must assert willpower and get on with work!

We were very nearly late for school this morning having spent so long in with them - cleaning out their newspaper and giving fresh hay and veg. And generally just cooing over them and watching Pip popcorn! - when I realised we had 15 minutes to get to school. I was still in my pyjamas! 🙊Lucky we live two minutes away.

The boys have now found their ramp and upstairs after I left a trail of food up - came in this morning to find Pipsqueak in his fleece forest. It's nice they can get a bit of space from each other while progressing with their bonding.

Be warned of much piggy spam coming your way! In all seriousness though, it is lovely to be able to talk here, as my husband is not interested!
 
I know! I spend ages hand feeding them the nice bits of hay. They are soooooo much fun. Their different characters are really funny. They are the sweetest pets. Enjoy them.
 
When we first got our piggies almost a year ago we were working in-front of them they were the best distraction ever!
We are now in separate rooms but will still go in and day high on an hourly basis!
 
I have my piggies in my office although I ended up rearranging the room so they weren't behind me any more. Far too many Zoom calls were derailed by popcorning piggies.

I've also started hand feeding pellets and am chuffed that my nervous piggy is taking them from me. Trying to keep to once a day though so it doesn't become a begging thing...but Dash has already perfected his mournful climbing the bars act.
 
I have Ginger and Posh in the spare room next to my sewing machine, they absolutely love the attention, it’s nice to have someone to keep you company and have a chat with ☺️
 
Eddie and Elvis are in the kitchen where I've been most of the day during lockdown and I agree it's great having then there as chuntery munchy background noise but it's so easier to get distracted 🤣
 
My piggies are in a room next to my study so I can hear them but every time I leave the study I end up stopping to chat to them.
They are a wonderful distraction.
We love talking piggy and sharing piggy tales here so do carry on.
Looking forward to the spam.
