The Piggie Crew

Here are my little herd...From the top and going anti-clockwise its Twiglet, Piglet, (Twiglet's mother) Toggle, Sunshine and Muffin. These are my solid five piggies. They've been together for quite a while. When it was so freezing cold at the start of the year I brought them all indoors from their huge run in the shed and put them in the only safe, enclosed place I could think of...the shower!

Now though, five is about to become seven!

Roo and Snowball are going to be introduced to the gang this weekend. They have all seen each other but haven't shared living space yet so fingers and paws crossed that all goes well. Roo is posing for last year's Christmas card and Snowball is just her usual gorgeous self...

New Prime Minister

MR BUGS FOR PRIME MINISTER

We have no government at the moment because our system is so stupid. I have a solution. I am sending my rabbit to rule the country.

He hates change of any sort so the Labour party will support him.
He has natural breeding and pedigree so the Conservatives will support him.
He has no prejudices at all and dislikes everyone equally so the Liberals will support him.
And he has one eye and is nearly deaf so he'll pick up the minority vote too. RESULT!

Squeeze. Gulp.

I follow a lot of blogs on and off and "Looking throught the Glass" is one of my favourites.(http://lookingthroughtheglass-kim.blogspot.com/A real family facing some difficult things over the years but they just scream "family" and I love that. Everything is so to do with the family and there's so much love there. I would really liketo meet them and experience that total family thing.

And then they fed a pet store rat called Kevin to their pet snake who squeezed it to death and gulped it down for lunch. Sob. They named it and then fed it to a snake. More sobs. But it is a beautiful snake, and it has to eat...but they named it, you got a name, you're family in my book. Just for the record. Snowball will never be fed to a snake. Guinea Pig in a million and much smaller than Kevin. And not big enough to satisfy a snake.
