Mummy has pigtures of me, Spooky and Bubbles (RIP) on her wall at work.
A new supplier came to visit her and was amazed at the number of pigtures of HAMSTERS........ what is he blind we look nothing like hamsters.
It was bad enough when the kitchen fitters kept calling me a rabbit.
We is GUINEA PIGS
hmmmmppppphhhh
Not as bad as when some of us Piggyfriends accompanied our slave to the RSPCA Pet Days.
ReplyDeleteProud mother comes up to our table and says to her little brat " What are they then? " expecting a correct answer so that she can gloat at her child's knowledge. Child replies " Goats!" Red faced mother beats a hasty retreat.
Go figure.

ReplyDeletehmm, I do I hear Bing the cavy singing 'I am not a gerbil'?
ReplyDeleteOur slaves call us 'Mice', don't know why, guess it refers to when we were really small and had pointy faces...
Wheeks,
Agent D, not-so-lil'Woop (only 20 grammes lighter than D) and Valentino
remembering Old G and Mr.T
Our slaves sometimes calls us her fat rats. When Peony and Petunia arrived, they were so tiny that she called them her hamsters and, even though they are now as rotund as the rest of us, the name has stuck.
ReplyDeleteShe does know the difference though and has lots of silly names for us like "Piggly Wigglies" and "Porklets". We don't mind, as long as she keeps bringing us our veggies.
We all loved Bing.
