Candle Lighting

All of us at Piggyfriends were pleased to join in the annual Candle Lighting for Peter Gurney.

 

Gandalf helped our Slave to light our candles and you can see his photo here. Slave picked him as he is almost guaranteed to sit still and she is not up to running after escaping porkers at the moment.

 

We remembered very many Piggyfriends past as well as dear human friends, including Peter plus a host of other small ones who have lived here down the years.

 

We hope that our lights will shine out to those gathered at the Rainbow Bridge and tell them that we love and miss them all.

Have a nice Wheekend!

9 March 8 PM: Peter Gurney Memorial

The Peter Gurney Annual Candle Lighting Memorial is almost here! Please
light a candle on March 9th at 8 p.m. in your time zone. For ten years,
candles have been our way to remember the remarkable Peter Gurney, who
was so generous in sharing his knowledge about guinea pigs. Many of us
have his books or continue to consult his webpages, and some of us here
were lucky enough to know or meet him. When you light your candle, it
will also be a memorial to all of the two- and four-footed friends we've
lost through the years. We like to think of our lights being visible at
the Rainbow Bridge and letting our loved ones know they remain in our
hearts always.

Please comment below, post the the GPDD (www.gpdd.org) digest
or let Audrey (agbmcmd@yahoo.com) know afterwards
where you lit your candle so she can compile the annual list
of how many places joined in. Feel free to tell others as well, so we
can have as much participation as possible!

Just a pretty pigture

I haven't been able to post any special pigtures lately whilst I am recuperating but our son, the pigsitter, came down to visit for the weekend and he took a few pigtures. I thought you might like to see one so here are Agents 88, Mouse and Mystery enjoying a snack. Aka Lola, Angelina and Otto Piggyfriend. Otto poses no mystery at the moment as he had a haircut and we can see his dear little face again.

Butternut Squash; we don't get it either

Dear Ghost and Penny,

I have no idea. When our staff purchased a so called butternut squash back in January, she couldn't stop giggling. And to make it worse, she made these pigtures. Humans are so weird.

No offense meant, miss Penny. I've been told that you're one of the kindest humans on the web. I  hope you feel better soon. Veggies picked out by home shoppers sounds horrible. Some things are too important to be left to others ;-)

Yours truly,

Aagje (you can call me Aggie if Aagje is too hard)

See! Totally different!

The indignity

Don't tell me this face isn't cuter than than the butternut squash!

Friday Video: Your Guinea Pig Pal

How cute is this video? A quick note though; licking stones are not neccesary, and don't keep us with rabbits. It's much better to pair us up with another guinea pig. A good shelter can help you with this!


Have a nice Wheekend!
