Look what Slave received at Christmas.

We wanted to share pigtures of some piggy presents that our Slave received at Christmas.

Her son, Sean, our pigsitter, sent her this card ( below ).

Santa Pig has goggly eyes.

A box of delights arrived from Connecticut from our erstwhile Junior Slave. There were presents for all but in her goody bag were these socks.





Whoever designed them must know about piggies because as well as pigtures of adorable piggies, there are carrots and............little piles of poo! Look below for a close up.

We do not think that Slave will wear them as she would not want them to wear out and, at the moment, they are pegged to the Dangermice's pen so that the photos could be taken.

She received this funny plushy piggy. His name tag says that he is called Norman. Apparently he was in a film. He has tiny, little pink feet just like us. ( pigture below ).
Aren't they cute? ( just like us again ).

Look at these tiny little piggies! They came in a box with their own pen, a pig cave, some lettuces and a carrot plus their very own Slave to care for them. They even have a water bottle.

Slave loves her silly presents to add to her vast collection of piggy plushies, ornaments and other delights. We hope you all had lots of lovely gifts too.

  1. hi Penny--

    I can tell your two sons know what to buy their mom for Christmas! :) What charming gifts! I have a Playmobil piggy set that a friend gave me, but mine is different from yours. We sent my son in California a sweatshirt with an image of a pitbull and the words, "I'm a lover, not a fighter." He rescued a tiny, 4-month-old pitbull puppy this May. She is now nine months, and is a very loving and loveable girl--he adores her! She was separated much too young from her mom and siblings (if there were any!), but adores other dogs. Nate says she goes belly-up to let them know she is submissive, but she is not fearful, nor aggressive in any way. She also charms people, making friends easily, and seems to be quite well-adjusted considering her unfortunate beginnings. I have to say, we had a bit of sticker shock at the cost to ship our Christmas presents to California, as I'm sure you can relate, since you would pay even more so!

    Happy New Year to you and your family of all kinds!

    Your friends,

    1. What do you have in your piggy set? I have a little set of a few piggies with a lettuce and a pile of grass and I have put them all together now to make a scene. Your son's doggy sounds delightful and a good advert that not all pitbulls are dangerous if treated correctly. Yes, postage to the US is scarily expensive. Even sending a package by sea is ridiculous and takes weeks. Lots of love to you and Buddy Boston and Happy New Year.

    What wonderful gifts --- those boys definitely did their homework! It's almost as if they had these all specially made just for you.

    1. Thank you Aunty Pat. They were both involved with our care for many years and know that our Slave loves anything "piggy" aas a present.
