Lovely Rita is here to convey our warmest holiday greetings to everyone and everypig out there! We hope your weather was warmer than ours and that you have much less snow than we do. (It's all very well to be "dreaming of a White Christmas", but a bit of picturesque hoar frost on the tips of branches would do just fine; no one needs three feet of snow covering all that tasty grass!)
It has been a good year for the Prairie Pigs; there are eight of us at the moment, the most Prairie Pigs there have ever been. Pig Mum's veggie garden did very well this year and we had many new and tasty things to eat all summer; we will be munching on carrots from that garden well into 2025.
You have already heard about Padraig, who joined us in October, but early in the New Year, you will also get to meet an even newer Prairie Pig whose name is Serafina, a little orphan girl piggy who came to us from the local Humane Society shelter at only a few weeks old and weighing less than 100 grams. She is growing fast and we are all helping to teach her how to be a guinea pig.
This is the first pigture Pig Mum took of Serafina, just after Serafina realized there was a guinea pig in the cage next door to hers --- she is trying to see over the divider into Padraig's cage, but she is not quite tall enough to get a really good look yet...
Stay tuned to hear her whole story!
