Merry Christmas from the Piggyville Girls!

 

 

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.


Santa Claus Piggy climbed quietly down the tree to leave presents for good piggies...


"Look, Tilley!" said Squirly.  "Santa left us a Christmas pudding and a Christmas ornament, too.  We must have been very good piggies!"

We wish all guinea pigs and the humans who love them a happy and healthy Merry Christmas!


If this is Christmas, we approve!

 Mama Bonbon said that Christmas would be a surprise and.....


.....we agree with her. We have a pretty stocking full of our favourite veggies. 


The boys make a start on a carrot. This one is big enough to share.


"Ambrose! That is a whole pepper you have there! Slave always cuts them into pieces for us. Let me have some." says Oscar. 

" Shall we share it with some other piggies?" says Ambrose. " We do eat a lot but I think that even big piggies like us cannot eat all of this unless we have some hay and a nap first."


Oscar and Ambrose shared out their veggies with the other Piggyfriends and here are Picchu and Fionn having some pepper. 

"Christmas is all about giving, " says Picchu, who has seen many Christmases here.

We hope that all of our readers had a Merry Pigmas and the slaves too.

Is this Christmas?


" Hey Ambrose, there is a great big tree in the conservatory. It is covered with sparkly things and there are two toy gingerbread piggies hanging on it." says Oscar.

"Is this something to do with Christmas? I do not understand humans."

Christmas is Coming!

 "Christmas is coming and the pigs are getting fat...tra la."


Ambrose: Who are you calling fat?

Oscar: That wasn't me! Slave is singing to the girls next door. She is cleaning out their pen.

Ambrose: I like a nice fat sow, me.

Oscar: They are certainly very plumptious. Is that a word? 


 Caoimhe: Plumptious? Sounds like a compliment to me.


Orla: Me too!


Ambrose: Who is Christmas and why is he coming?

Oscar: I have no idea. Let us ask Mama Bonbon. She is old and wise and is sure to know.


Mama Bonbon: Christmas boys? Of course. You were only tiny piglets last Christmas and you did not live here then. I don't know where you were but you may not remember Christmas. It is a wonderful holiday and you will find out all about it in three days time! Most of all, you have to be good piggies and then you will see what happens.

Oscar and Ambrose:This sounds exciting! We can do "good". No nibbling on Slave's shirt when she cleans our pen.

A Holiday Hello

Scottie here! I hope everyone is having a happy and healthy holiday season.
 
My older brother, Nugget, passed away last month, and I miss him a lot, so my mom and dad said it might be a good idea to invite some friends over. Here we are together.
 
We send festive wishes to all, and we hope you like our card.

A Piggy A-Z continued

 Hello readers,

It is a long time since we published a story in our A-Z so it is about we picked up where we left off. 


"Where was that then?" asks Bella Piggyfriend through a mouthful of grass.

"I think we had reached M," replies Mama Bonbon. " Oh that is M for me!"

"M for me too," says Miss Marple ( right of our photo).

"I can think of a good word for N," announces Mama Bonbon ( left of our photo ). "We should start with N for Nutrition. We have talked a lot about different veggies since we started this marathon alphabet and we probably did G for Grass but this is the finest food for piggies and we cannot rate it highly enough." (munch munch munch )


"Aunty Pat has an idea for N as well," says Mama Bonbon so we will see that one soon.
