Slave took our Peaches to see Pauline at Pooh Piglets Rescue as she needed an extra pair of hands to deal with a sebaceous cyst. She had seen two lovely Peruvians on the rescue's Facebook page the previous week and never expected to find that they were still there but.....
.....there they were! A family had been to see them at the weekend, picked them up and cuddled them and then went home with two other pigs. Slave can never pick up a pig at Pauline's and leave him behind.
They had been handed in at the rescue all tangled and matted and Pauline had shampooed them and given them good haircuts.
Slave had gone to the rescue with her son as her car was at the mechanics so he held one piggy and she had the other. Then they swapped pigs. He went back to his car to fetch the extra carrier that always accompanies Slave to the rescue " just in case ".....and in they went to come home.
She has named them Dara and Declan. In the above photo, Dara is at the front. He is alleged to be eight months old and has some white hair in his coat so it is easy to tell them apart.
In this photo, Declan is at the front. He is reputed to be two years old. They are not related but are the very best of friends. Slave has trimmed their fringes so that she can see their dear little faces and they can see out. They are lovely little guys who are obviously used to being handled and are the typical laid back Peruvians who are easy to pose for a photograph but, having dark faces, their eyes do not show up that well.
Please welcome these little fellows to Piggyfriends.
