The Hay Review Part 6
My 6th hay is Oxbow Hay Cakes.
These are compressed cubes of hay made with 100% timothy hay, they come in 454g bag and cost Mummy £5.30
Hay cakes are no good for bedding rofl you cant really hide under them but you can use them as a pillow, if you can stop other naughty piggy from eating them out from under you (Agent Ghost naming no names)
Mummy gives us the occasional hay cake as a treat along side our regular hay.
These are yummy and give your teeth a good work out breaking them out.
Me would give these 8 out of 10

Make Hay ..............
While the Sun Shines.
This is an old human saying, me is not sure what it means because as soon as we get sun (like this weekend) Mummy gets out her deck chair, sunglasses and a book.................. and thats it nothing.
At least me and Spooky make ourselves useful mowing the lawn.

How Do You Eat Yours?
Humans here in the UK have a chocolate called Cadburys Cream Egg all the adverts ask how they eat them, so me has decided to find out how piggies eat different food.
My first how do you eat yours? is a general question, when your human gives you fresh food what do you do with it?
Mummy gives us a selection like carrot, romaine and pepper....... Ghost will grab one piece say carrot and run off to a corner to eat it, me will flop out by the food bowl and start munching whatever me likes, by the time Ghost gets back me has eaten at least double what he has.
When me was an only pig me used to grab all the fresh food out of the bowl and drag it to the sleeping area, me would then eat it all there.
So how do you eat yours??

The Hay Review Part 5
My 5th hay is Pure Pastures Meadow Hay this is what I call a "normal" hay as opposed to a treat.
It comes in a 1.8kg bag and Mummy pays £2 for it at the market, me suspects it would cost more at the shops.
Pure Pastures has long strands which me loves it is light green in colour and soft enough to sleep on.
This is my favourite "normal" hay and me would give it 10 out of 10.

Mummy is Back
Well she now has no wisdom teeth left, does that mean she will be a really dumb human? What a silly place to keep wisdom in your teeth.
Yesterday she looked like a lopsided hamster, today she looks more normal but is complaining her mouth is sore.
Me is not surprised, me glad my teeth are fine.
More important than Mummy me is now up to 1131g so even more than when I started losing weight hurray

Me is Back
Mean Mummy banned me from puter til me had put all my weight back on, so last night me munched good and me is now 1123g (me was 1125g but even Mummy cant complain about that)
Me is also keeping healthy by exercising heehee this means chasing Ghost all over the cage and then nicking the warm spot me chased him out of.
Did you know humans get toothy problems to? Mummy has to go to hospital on Monday to have a wisdom tooth removed coz its growing under the gum into her other teeth ouch.
She has to have a general anaesthetic and then will need looking after until it wears off she not allowed out for a week!!!
Me hopes Daddy is capable of looking after us all.

Another Update
Agent F is back up to 1081g, he is acting normally again.
That means he is chasing me and pulling my ears, I had more peace when he was ill.
Mummy has banned him from the puter until he gets back to normal weight so he has 40g left to go.

Agent F Health Update
Ghost here again just to let you know F is doing better today.
Here is what has been happening......
Regular readers may remember that not long after I arrived F begun losing weight at first Mummy thought it was because he was much more active chasing and humping me but when he continued to lose weight she got worried.
Mummy wormed F with Panacur but that didnt help, she took him to the vet who said his tummy was tender and gave him a shot of metacam that didnt help, then the Piggyfriends recommended giving him Acidophilus.
Acidophilus comes in capsules your human opens the capsule and mixes a third of the powder with 1ml of water and syringes it into you, well F he hates the syringe and after lots of fighting Mummy came up with a new plan she sprinkles the powder between 2 slices of cucumber leaves it a while for the cucumber to absorb it and feeds it to F he is quiet happy to eat this.
F put some weight on not all that he had lost but he stopped losing and got to a steady weight.
Next he had 2 fungal infections one on his ear and one round his testicle these were treated with canaural (ear) baytril (testicle) from the vet, and Gorgeous Guineas Lavendar and Myrhh lotion on both, they both cleared up.
Last Sunday F stopped eating he was sitting hunched over and fluffed up his poops got really small and then stopped altogether.
Mummy gave him 0.4ml childs liquid nurofen and 0.5ml metatone she then syringe fed him food and water and he perked right up.
Monday and Tuesday he was fine.
Wednesday he was hunched up again so Mummy took him straight to vet they could find nothing wrong, but his family all knew something was wrong.
The Piggyfriends suggested the following treatments and Mummy says she owes her sanity to the support of all her friends in the piggy world but especially to the Piggyfriends Mummy.
Mummy tried giving him 3ml Gripe Water as well as the medicines above he still lost weight.
Thursday Mummy gave him 1ml Infacol as well as medicines but he still lost weight.
Friday Mummy gave him 1 Buscopan tablet crushed and mixed with 1.5ml water and syringed into him he stayed the same weight.
Mummy gave us lots of treat foods corn on the cob, strawberries, beetroot, yellow pepper and romaine as well as giving F his medicines.(nurofen and metatone)
Sunday F has gained weight he is back to 1039g from 970g.
We still dont know what made him stop eating but we are glad we have found something that helps.
Mummy wants to get him back to 1120g which is what he was before he got ill last weekend.
She would also like him to stop getting ill at the weekend when no vets are open and to stop fighting the syringe as she is only doing it for his own good.
I think her chances of success are slim but at least she has stopped crying and being stressed and is smiling again, stressed Mummy's are not good trust me...............
If anyone is interested in me Ghost I weighed a hefty 1251g yesterday and Daddy says I look like an aubergine.

Special Report from the Nederlands
Hi there, this is agent Valentino!
I want to tell you something about a Dutch national holiday we celebrate.
It is called Queensday and every year on the 30th of April all the slaves and non-slaves from the Netherlands, the Netherlands Antilles
and Aruba celebrate the Queens' Birthday. As it's a national holiday most Dutch people get the day off.
Our current Queen is Queen Beatrix. The tradition started on 31 August 1885, which was the Birthday of Princess Wilhelmina, later Queen Wilhelmina.
Since 1949, after the ascension of Queen Juliana, Queen's Day is Queen Juliana's birthday on 30 April. Queen Beatrix has her birthday on the 31st of January, but since the weather is usually not that great then, and to honor the Queen mother Juliana, she kept it in the 30th of April. Ow yes, and she also became Queen on that day in 1980.
It is always a day full of festivities and the Royal family of Orange-Nassau always visit one or two cities in the country.
A typical thing to do is visit a 'freemarket', where the Dutchies are allowed to sell their old stuff in the street.
Others are visiting (free) music festivals. Many towns also have street fairs and markets.
Our city, the Hague, is known for their celebration of Queens' night. This is on the evening before the 30th.
There are many music stages set up in the city centre and also all the bars in town are opened till late...
On queens' day most people will dress in orange, as it is the color of the Royal family of Orange-Nassau (and also the color of the Dutch national football team).
This is often referred to as 'Orange craze' ('oranjegekte' in Dutch).
Last year some crazy guy in a little black car tried to crash through the audience and hit the bus with the royal family. Luckily he did not succeed,
and crashed against a big monument on the way. But unfortunately he did drive through part of the audience and thus injuring and killing some people.
We are really hoping nothing bad happens this year, cause we are afraid if there is something bad like that, we will never be allowed to celebrate Queens' day again.
Well, I'm off to get myself a carrot beer, that's nice orangy color in style of Queens'day! Cause people here willl also eat and drink orange colored drinks and food.
Signing of,
Agent Valentino

Punky Peruvian
Agent Master of Disguise is a peruvian piggy lets meet him now;
What is your secret agent name and why? Bond. James Bond. No, I'm just kidding. Is Master of Disguise too long? My hair looks different almost every moment.
Where do you live? Southeast US
Who do you live with? My mom and dad and piggie pal, Friday.
What is your favourite food? parsley, though I must eat it sparingly
What is your favourite toy? my cozy, because I can move it around until it fits me perfectly!
What is your favourite activity? lying in the hay trough and sleeping or eating
Any comments you would like to share with every one? I promise to be the best secret agent I can be.
[caption id="attachment_738" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Never the Same Hairstyle Twice"]
[/caption]
The Peruvian piggy is a long haired Abbyssinian, the breed standards say that the fringe should completely cover the face and the sweep should flow out from the butt, the hair is not supposed to be cut but kept in wrappers ready for show day.
Me thinks that is not fun and that Agent Master of Disguise is much better with his ever changing hairstyle.

Guest Number 18
Agent Master of Disguise.
His motto is never the same hairstyle twice.
Agent Master of Disguise lives in the South East US
He lives with his brother and Mummy and Daddy.
His real name is a type of plant most commonly found in the desert or large dry areas, the plant features in Western films to indicate desolation.
The plant is often seen blowing across the screen when a bad joke is told.
Me thinks with all those hints you should be able to guess this one.

Naughty Water Bottle
Mummy gives us fresh water everyday when she changes our bedding.
Last night when she was packing us up so she could go to bed she noticed that the water was still full to the top, this is unusual as Ghost is always drinking.
Mummy put her hand in and flicked the ball bearing several times...........no water.
Mummy didnt panic as she keeps spare bottles just in case.
She removed the bottle undid the lid and put the lid on again.
Hey presto the bottle worked, she thinks maybe an air bubble was stopping it.
The lesson here is that bottles as well as leaking can also refuse to give water so make sure your humans keep a close eye on them.
