On Way To Collect Boys

[lauraboara]

One of my boys has been dating at BARC rescue this week and I am on the train on the way to collect him plus new friend! Eek. Happy he has found a friend as he was not doing so well after he lost his cage mate a few weeks ago. Wish me luck for bringing them home on train and then the first evening at home. Can be a bit nerve wracking to move them to new environment after rescue has done all the careful bonding!

Eeee! Good luck! Hope it all goes smoothly and your new piggie loves his new home and his new friend

 

[DanielleMeyer]

Good luck. I hope everything goes well. Can't wait to see pictures of your new addition.

Yay! New piggies! I hope everything goes all right when you get them home. Remember, this will be a new situation for both of them, even your first boy, so there may be a bit of a tussle whilst they sort out their hierarchy. But if they are well bonded, it will not come to much.

Good luck ! At least you know you have gone to a rescue that offers a great bonding service.


PS - my new arrival ( Foster ) is settling in nicely - although it has been a bit fraught at times .

On train back again. Boys quiet but slightly wiffy, nice for our fellow passengers

Pictures please (without smelly vision thank you!). How lovely for you x

Ok - so here is Fred! The latest boar to join our family.
He is quite large (!) and a long pig and also lovely, of course

The boys are being brilliantly well behaved and first evening has been so calm - they are a bit tired after their busy day - Shhhhh....

The magic camera makes Barney B look bigger than Fred but that certainly is not true

Thank you @pig in the city for looking after Barney B and his funny tummy so well whilst dating and getting him a lovely big Fred

Fred & Barney say hello to Fred & Barney..

So glad they have settled back home. It all seems a bit quiet around here now!

Lovely to read. Hope the boys have a wonderful friendship and lots of adventures together.

Big kisses to the gorgeous Barney B.

congratulations on the new Arrival. My first thought on hearing "Fred and Barney" was the flintstones. Lol. So cute.

Fred was originally Fred Astaire (as in Fred and Ginger), slight comedown to Fred Flintstone but l guess Barney doesn't mind!

So happy everything has worked out. They make a lovely pair x

 

[Kerrie74]

Gorgeous!

Gorgeous boys! Fred looks a bit like my Inka! (Tries to find pic to demonstrate!)

 

[flintstones]

Aw what gorgeous boys, so glad everything went smoothly and they have settled in well.
