A Merry Prairie Christmas to All


Hello everyone, Heathcliffe, spokespig for the Prairie Pigs, here to wish all the piggies and piggy people out there our very best in Season's Greetings.  We hope you are having a peaceful and safe holiday.

Like many households this year, Christmas was a bit different for us, but while Slave seemed a little sad to be spending less time with family and friends during the Yuletide, we were mostly only pretending to be sympathetic while we enjoyed having her at our beck and call a lot more than past Christmases.  She did meet with a few friends now and then for walks around the neighbourhood to admire the festive light displays, but then she would be back all rosy-cheeked and more than ready to snuggle with us again.

We hope you are all finding creative ways to make this year's Christmas special, even if it is not exactly the one we would have chosen, and to count the blessings we still have (especially the small round furry ones)!

P.S. If you look closely at the lovely card next to me in the photo, you will see it's a Christmas pyramid of guinea pigs --- it came all the way from England from our Auntie Penny and the Piggyfriends.

  1. Lovely pigture Heathcliffe! All the more welcome because we know how much trouble your Slave had with her misbehaving camera.

      Thank you, Piggyfriends! Slave is indeed fortunate that she had such an eloquent and photogenic spokespig available to save the day in spite of the technology failure.

    What a wonderful picture and story. Yes we must protect ourselves and others so that next year we can spend Christmas together.

    Thanks, Ann! We hope those bears in the woods are helping to scare the virus away and keep everyone safe in North Carolina.

  4. Heathcliffe, you did a wonderful job being spokespig for the Prairie Pigs. We (Nugget and Scottie) know a little about camera problems, and your mom obviously overcame them, as your photo is great. What a lovely card from Penny. We hope you had a Merry (if a bit quieter) Christmas!
