Ollie and Tallulah :)

Oh no Ollie had a right panic his little wife hippo was hiding 5ft away from him and he couldnt see her and he started shrieking in alarm! She rushed over and it was ok though, don't think they've been more than 6 inches away from each other since they met :)
 
They are really enjoying the playpen, the late afternoon sun is coming through the window at just the right angle to keep Tallulah warm while she zooms about! Ollie isnt very zoomy on newspaper but he's sedately patrolling the perimeter with a bit of rumble-strutting then laying down in the pile of hay in the middle while his hyperactive love-hippo wife runs laps and keeps running over for a kiss and a hay nibble :)

Dear Ollie, he has waited so long for this. I forgot to mention that his brother Willow was also adopted through this forum by @lauraboara he was boar dated to Ozzy, another former BARC piggy.
Ollie and Willow fell out when they were introduced as a pair of sows, a case of mis-sexing (Ollie was formerly known as Holly) to a sow and boar pair.
 
Cleaned out the cage (young love makes a lot of mess) and now we are trying out new married furniture, the wooden Hop-Inn house was delivered already today with the rest of my Amazon stuff, and they have a double cuddle cube to try out. They spent a while in the cleaned out hay area (see photo) and now they are running backwards and forwards trying to decide which double hidey they like best, think they are settling on the double cuddle cube but they enjoyed doing little circuits in and out of the 2 doors of the wooden house following each other nose to bum!

Poor Ollie, he is quite definitely a boar, I am washing the evidence off the fleece! He's such a lovely boy, and very clever, he kept coming over and asking me what I was doing while I was cleaning the cage and unpacking my amazon boxes and as soon as he saw I'd finished and the cage was ready he got in his fleecy tunnel and wheeked to go home!
 
Both of them have coped very well with being in the main living room while we had family visiting, I was worried they might be scared of the kids but Ollie thinks hoomans are just like TV only better because if you watch them long enough they feed you salad through the cage bars :) he quickly learnt that if he hears lego bricks it means mini hoomans and if he runs to the bars wheeking when he hears lego bricks he might get a slice of cucumber! Clever Ollie, and he's so relaxed and happy all the time, he flops down asleep anywhere then Tallulah comes and hides behind him :)
 
Bless them, they’re so sweet :luv:
Thought my two were a loved-up couple but it took them a few months to fall head over heels!
Instant, massive, don’t-leave-my-side love with Ollie and Tallulah! :love: x

Ollie looked small on his adoption pic, but looks big compared to Tallulah. Could be the fur
 
Aah they’re so blooming cute together! :love:

My two are the same, took Rupert out of the cage earlier for probiotics and cystease and got a right shouting at by loopy Jess, how dare you take my man! And they’ve been together since July 2013!

Piggy love, so sweet :luv: x
 
Thought I'd get my valentine's fleece out for a quick photo sharing strawberries and spinach on the sofa! These two are both crazy for strawberries! Now they're having readigrass in the playpen while piggy daddy poop scoops their cage and Ollie is doing a bit of sedate manly rumblestrutting while Tallulah runs her crazy girl laps :)

Ollie weighs 1097g which is pretty close to all my other year old piggies, he's slimmer than Theo but taller and longer! Tallulah hasnt quite reached 700g yet but she might do next week with the strawberries if she stops running round like crazy :)
