Proper Introductions Of The Trio Meeting The Herd

Great video. They are all so lovely. I do have a particular soft spot for orange and white piggies esp sheltie mixes ...

Like the bag crinkling idea. Good one.

Thanks. I started using the plastic bag trick a couple introductions ago when I saw piggies started chattering at each other. The instant they heard the bag both stopped and paid attention to me and forgot they were chattering.

Yes. Buttercup is definitely a sweet heart and my high maintenance piggie due to needing haircuts and baths.

Was just going to say I squealed when I saw Buttercup :drool: I'm obsessed with her fluffy bum! I think her name is just perfect for her, too.

@PiggieHerd You have such a beautiful bunch of girls :love:

Lol. She was seized from Animal Control from her previous owner due to poor living conditions, her sister is Coconut the silkie. When I first saw her, she had lots of matted fur, long nails, and scratches. Someone was going to adopt her sister Coconut but not her and I couldn't let that happen so I talked to Animal Shelter and lady up front agreed that they should be adopted together so I got priority and took both of them home with me a year ago.

Now both of them get groomed once a month.

That was so kind of you to keep them together, and that's funny because I also noticed Coconut and how deliciously furry she was. :love: Their pig parents must have been lookers, because they definitely have good genes :cool:
Lucky girls to have found such an awesome home after all they've been through

I'm thinking Patches (newest- almost all black) when she grows a bit older she will develop longer hair too, she already has some and thinking it just needs time to grow longer.
 
I just wanted to jump in there with them all. I can't pick a favourite, they are all so beautiful :wub:
