Calendar piggies of February



Agent Butterloaf is an elderly pig, now going on 8 years! He was adopted when he was a year old. His agent name comes from him being a stout lad and his enjoyment of loafing around. He is quite the good napper and smooshes out wherever he pleases. While eating, Agent Butterloaf likes to sit down and rest his chin on the food bowl. He has fallen asleep quite a few times this way.


Being an elderly pig, he has had to go in to the vet for his teeth quite a few times. I believe Agent Butterloaf has come from a royal line of pigs, as he has an air of "How dare you handle me this way?!" when being checked out by the vet. During one of the visits, after being checked out and put back in his carrier, Agent Butterloaf began throwing his carrot treat around, making quite the ruckus. He is a pig that lets his thoughts known! All the ladies at the vet love him, he is quite the charmer.



Agent Yougie was adopted when he was under a year old. I saw his handsome face when I was walking around the humane society and was instantly charmed. It must have showed on my face as one of the volunteers offered to let me hold him. I knew this would be a bad idea as we didn't have room so I politely declined, but she took him out and I held him anyway. He is quite the squeaker! He looked up at me while chatting away, and I was a goner. We picked up him from the humane society that day.


His agent name comes from the love of the yogurt treat. He doesn't get very many, but will try his best to get as many as he can. He stands on his hind legs, runs up and down the ramp, and will wheek wheek wheek until a yogurt treat descends from the heavens! Besides yogurt treats, his favorite food is cucumber peels.
