Here are some more assorted bathing pics from the Tribe, especially the characters that have slipped under the radar a bit last time!

Thankfully, we seem to be past the worst of it all now. I have to admit that bathing and drying 16 piggies every three days for a few rounds of fungal baths (split into two days), providing clean towels each time, cleaning the cage on the day off and washing all the piggy stuff at 90C in our small washing machine with its dodgy bearings has been a logistical challenge, to say the least, especially as the fungal patient's stuff needs to be strictly separated at all times and will be thrown away at the end of the treatment. Any rescue ladies doing this on a regular basis have my fullest admiration!

Here is Hywel showing off his King Henry VIII figure

Less kind than practical - a piggy that is busy munching on a treat like fresh herbs is far less likely to wander off and get into mischief during their soak time! mallethead
 
Aww such cuties. I really feel for you having so much work to do. It cannot be easy at all.
 
:)) once again those shots say a thousand words! Bless them all, they seem to be dealing with it very well! Glad you're over the worst!
 
Oooooo drool wet.....tribe......piggies.......drool........^)
 
drool drool Eeee! Wet piggies! but not just any piggies TheTribe! Adorable! x) x)
 
Aww bless! x)

I don't envy you having to bath so many piggies.

Hope that the fungal problem clears up very soon.
 
Gorgeous piggies even when damp lol!

Mine have just about forgiven me for their baths today, several Blueberries later rolleyes

How you manage so many in a day I don't know! Took me an hour to do each of mine from shampooing to blow dry after :))

I do them in groups of three or four, so by the time I have lathered the last piggy, the first one is ready to be rinsed again... The piggies are a lot less panicky when they are with friends. But even with practice, it is still quite time consuming!
 
"We dont enjoy our baths, then Mummy has the nerve to post all our photos of our wet soggy hair and fluffed up bums for all the world to see! How indecent! There is no need to stop eating, but keep working the camera fellow tribe, deliver the dirty looks"
 
Awwwww, soggy tribe x) x)
