My girls are my first piggies of my own but I have known a few other piggies in my life. My brother had 3 piggies when we were much younger but more about them later (I need time to find and scan photos of them).
Today I will tell you a story of a guinea with many names. He was owned by a friend of a friend at uni. She had him for a year. I looked after him when she went on holiday once. When she brought him round I asked his name only to be told she hadn't really decided but he went by many names one for each of her flatmates it seems ,Mr G ,Vinny and Fred. So me and the other half coined another name from these Mr Minivinnipiggifredgee. After a year she had to go back home to Norway so had to rehome him. I couldn't take him myself at the time but rehomed him to my mums friend. When she dropped him off to go to his new home she had decided on a name mallethead his name was Took Took. He then got renamed by his new family to Scoobie mallethead. That a lot of names in his first year. Anyway thankfully I got to watch him on holidays. As he got older he became quite a grumpy old man. Thanks for listening to his story and without further ado here are a few pics

Aww he looks a little cheeky chappy.x>>:)) Perhaps he should be know as Hobo as he has had so many homes.
 
Aww, he looks gorgeous! x)
I wish I had some pics of my old pigs, Mossy and Mopsy, that I had as a child. I have a few at home I think, but that's quite a long way away. Will get hold of some next time I'm down there :)
