Three weeks today since I lost my baby so I suppose I’ve got to say a bit of a goodbye to my best piggle ever. Sorry so long, she had a jam-packed 7 and a half years!
My little, extra special girl was adopted in 2013 as a slightly dysfunctional 7 week old baba that had been taken away from her mum (with her two brothers) at 3 weeks old so was desperate for attention (from pig and human!) She joined my Sheepy the alpaca after he lost his best mate Reggie and was also in dire need of a pal!
They got on brilliantly but Sheep sadly got quite poorly and left for the bridge so yet again was a dysfunctional little lady desperate for attention!
Then she met her Rupert! Love at first sight and sniff!
They really were the sweetest couple, apart from every few months when she’d have a rather stroppy season and poor Poopy Bear couldn’t do anything right! But they had a loved up and incredibly happy 6 years together!
In that time she had a mammary gland cyst so lost a nipple, then her hearing and wheek went bless her, didn’t stop her feisty and confident self though, that was just her! A Wonder-Pig as I liked to call her!
She lost Rupert last May and was utterly miserable, stopped eating and was again in desperate need of a new friend! Which is when loopy Luigi moved in July!
After a very long bonding and both being dominant pigs, he finally realised she was the boss and that was that! They then got on brilliantly, he’d run to her for a face groom and reassurance and they got on great, not quite a Rupert love though of course!
She had to have her eye removed after an injury (probably his nail!
) that October, she was by then not far off 7yrs old, she coped amazingly!
In January she was joined by the first sow she’d been around since her mum, Aliona.
Again she coped so well even though this new lady was a stroppy madam and targeted the little old boss! Thankfully Luigi was smitten and her bodyguard (most of the time!) so she had a bit of back up, but that was just her nature, a little fighter! But it soon calmed down and she lived her last 8 months in her little trio, as the boss of course!
Sadly we found out she had kidney problems and it was palliative care for my special one in June, so I hope she had a great couple of months until I had to help her to the bridge.
We were so close, she was a massive part of my life and such a cuddly, kissy and licky little lady! (She got me more than I got her, I didn’t lick nostrils either eh Jess
!)
She really was one of a kind and I loved her so much. But she’s back with her soulmate Rupert ❤❤ 3 hubbies but he was definitely the one!
She’s massively missed and will be forever, she was such a lovely, happy, wonky little lady! Really wish I could have her outlook on life! She was blooming amazing
