Meet Agent-in-Training Spaetzle

Our 12 year old buddy, Jennifer, is quite delighted by the Undercover Guinea Pigs blog. So much so she has dubbed herself Agent Stargirl. She also loves making videos, so this is the first in a series of six introducing us. First up, Agent-in-Training Spaetzle (aka Fritz).

Sleep Research: Igor's Nose

My specialty is sleeping with my nose up in the air. Going through the archives I noticed there are many pigtures of me sleeping with my nose placed higher than the rest of my body.
Ah well..   did it, done it, will be doing it a lot more I guess.

Just did it ;-) (yesterday)
Sleeping together with Suus and Yaya, back in 2008
Love this house *zzzzzzzzzzzzzz*
On J's lap in 2009
I was wondering, are there other piggies out there who do this? And do you think it is a texel thing, because our build is so stubby?

Flying Pigs and Piggies

Agent Cannonball here. Mummy went to a zoomie called "Flying Pig Marathon" and brought back many piggy goodies. The mug is cool but she needs to be better with the veggie refills.

Agent-in-Training Update

Agent-in-Training O here. I am happy to say I've gained weight this month and am now 980 grams, just 20 grams shy of full Agent weight! I'm quite pleased and tried today to convince Slave that were it not for the neutering surgery, I would already be an Agent. Slave laughed a bit and assured me that this was a nice thought but a bit of an exaggeration. Needless to say, I harrumphed and walked away, mumbling oaths under my breath.

A Challenge for the Herds - the Winkyteam Edition

From left to right: Suus, Igor, Yaya, Lotje, Dunya and Guiny

Agent I reporting out of the archives *dusty cough*

This is our group photo, with six piggies. According to J you need:

  • at least 2 slaves; one for keeping the models happy (must be a master at simultanous petting) and one for making the pigtures.
  • a comfy studio. We were sitting on a couch, covered with a piece of fabric.
  • a plan, some pigs are more dominant than others; put peacemakers in between (that is why Suus and auntie Guiny are on opposite ends). Yaya and auntie Lotje serve as buffers.
  • lots of veggies to distract.. err.. pamper the models
