Here is Fudge, Crunchie and Mallow's new sister.. Little Poppet!

image.webp image.webp image.webp image.webp image.webp image.webp image.webp

Poppet is 14 weeks old, and a very scared little girl. The circumstances around why she was being rehomed soon became clear they where different than first thought.. Basically shes totally unhandled, terrified and had ringworm! Her handling is comin along, but shes still very scared. The ringworm has cleared and hair is growing back as you can see in the last pic.

She lives with mallow, after mallow had to be permanently seperated from fudge due to bullying.

Shes gained 100g in 2 weeks and is doing well considering!
Hoping she continues to come around :-)

Oh doesn't her name suit her - she's a perfect little poppet.
I'm so pleased you've taken her in. She'll have a superb life with the other gorgeous piggies.

Yes! Very similar features to fudge. Its hard to get any idea of personality yet, as she is very scared. She will now sit on my and be petted for a good 3-5 mins before she starts jumping and flinching at any sounds and trying to run away from me. She still wont eat from my hand when on my lap, but she will in the cage. I think it is going to take a while with this one. Shes ran into the side of the cage face first so many times just because iv came into the room or theres a sudden noise. Its horrible to see!

It cleared up nicely helen, got rid of the scabs/flakes/redness with a few days on using the cream. Then it stayed bald until a couple days ago where it started to fuzz over :-) no spread which was great x
