Fifi - Cavy Corner Guinea Pig Sanctuary, South Yorkshire
Fifi is a beautiful skinny girl who had recently lost her friend. She has now been bonded with a pair of gorgeous 3 month old girls, and will of course be sharing her gifts with them!

Sorrel & Angel Baby - Glynneath Guinea Pig Rescue, South Wales
Sorrel and Angel Baby are mother and daughter. Sorrel had a difficult pregnancy followed by an extremely traumatic labour, resulting in little Angel. Because of this they are permanent residents. It has just been Angel's 4th birthday, so she thought she was getting another birthday present!

I know it has both our names on, but it's really for me Mum...

Suuuuuuuuuuuzy, tell her to get off my present!

Oh alright, I suppose I'll share, since there's one for each of us...

Pipkin - Milhaven Guinea Pig Rescue, West Yorkshire
Pipkin is a 3 year old boy who has previously had surgery for a number of bladder stones. Unfortunately he is still prone to urinary and bladder problems so he will be staying in rescue.

Look at little me surrounded by these big gifts!

Sherman - This Little Piggy, Surrey
Sherman is a 3 year old boy who is currently post-neutering, waiting until he can find a wife or 2. He has always lived alone, so this might be a long process.

What's this? For me?

Aww, thank you Santa. It's soft and comfy under my little bum :)

Revel & Bounty - This Little Piggy, Surrey

Melba & Angelcake - Porsche's Rescue, New South Wales
These gorgeous girls are permanent residents at the rescue, as they are both satins, and therefore prone to osteodystrophy in the future.

Look at all this! It can't be all for us!

Wow! Fleecy things and treats galore! Thank you Santa!

Sheldon (and his photobombing best friend Atlas!) are in foster. Atlas suffers from chronic bladder stones, but Sheldon keeps him company. We'll see more of these 2 when Atlas gets his gift!

Wow! Yummy treats just for us, thank you Santa!

Annie and Hattie - Rescued Guinea Pigs, Indiana.
Annie (aged 2, white) was born with no eyes. She lives with her best friend Hattie (black and white, aged 6), who has somewhat of a bad chest.

Oh! Everything smells so tasty!

Since Annie can't see them, I better inspect closer...

A lovely big box has arrived for Bambi and Truffle here at Hazelcroft Rescue. I just wanted to say thank you to their Secret Santa and also to say that pictures will follow soon - the girls have both been on pregnancy watch and Truffle now has 3 babies who are now almost 2 weeks old and Bambi 4 babies who are almost a week old. We will open the parcel and take some photos when the babies are a little older!

* Noble, Rescued Guinea Pigs
* Tazer, Crawley Guinea Pig Rescue
* Peter & Archie, Hazelcroft Rescue

Brave & Sasha - Cavy Corner Guinea Pig Sanctuary, South Yorkshire
Brave and Sasha are mother and daughter. Brave came into rescue as a severe neglect case; pregnant, with a serious head tilt caused by a bad infection, she had little Sasha and they now live happily with their hutch mates Rusty & Precious (who helped them open the gift). Brave will always be smaller than the average pig.

Oh wow, a lot of gifts! What does Santa have to say to us?
Brave & Sacha 1.webp

Yumyumyum, looks tasty!

This is mine. Brave's bed. Just for me, now it's sleepy time!

Ally - Glynneath Guinea Pig Rescue, South Wales
Ally (not Abby, oops!) is an older lady of around 4 years old. She is a bit of a diva pig, and has so far refused to get along with whomever she's met. Here's hoping her best friend is out there somewhere!

LET ME IN THE BOX!
Ally 1.webp

I think I've found my favourite...
Ally 3.webp

Thank you Santa - even a high maintenance girl like me loves these gifts!
Ally 2.webp
 
Magnum - Glynneath Guinea Pig Rescue, South Wales
Magnum is a handsome little boy who has pea-eye (hence the name, Magnum PI - get it?! :D ), as well as impaction and private area issues which make him a very high maintenance boy!

For me? Wow!
Magnum 1.webp

What do you mean, come out for a photo? Is there food?
Magnum 2.webp

Oh, treats! Nom!
