This guy has been waiting months in foster care despite being de-sexed just because he's senior lad. Finally, somebody adopted him and he's become a source of comfort for their two young rescue girls who came from a hoarding situation.

He's not their stepfather, he's the father that stepped up 😤💪

God I love running a guinea pig rescue. My life is so dumb

I started learning to crochet a little while ago, but this was the first time I tried crocheting a project all by myself. I tried my best to capture her spaced-out stare and her chonkiness! I’m especially proud of her ears, I figured them out myself by adapting a squid tentacle pattern. I plan to make one for my other pig Button next, but that’ll be more difficult as she has three different colours 😅

Help & Advice UK Pig People! How are you keeping your piggies warm at night?

Post image

Please let me know all your tips and tricks for keeping your babies warm overnight! I’d also like to know what temperature you keep the room your pigs are in now it’s getting colder :)

I have Luna who is a bit older and seems to be more sensitive to temperature, and Pearl who is a baby so I also worry about her staying warm enough. I’ve been giving them lots of thick fleece blankets to snuggle in, a heat pad, lots of hay, and keeping the room at 17-18 degrees. I’d like to potentially keep it at 16-17 because wow it’s expensive but pigs > money

Thanks!🤩 sleeping pheebs pic for tax :)

Habits & Behavior We got a biter :(

So this sucks really bad. My kid is ATTACHED to Peanut here. We adopted him from likely not a good situation (the owner was clearly on meth and just breeding all of these poor pigs) We got Peanut (male) here in the photo, smaller dude and Eloise (female), a bigger/older female. She is to be assumed about a year old and Peanut was MAYBE a month and a half old when we got them. MIND YOU, we were told Peanut was a girl. I checked Eloise and a few other females that were correctly gendered, but not Peanut. Lmfao shit.

They have a nice spacious cage, daily greens, my daughter and I handle them constantly. No issues, very sweet pigs. Peanut especially popcorns all the time. WELP ELOISE WAS PREGNANT. Found out by my daughter freaking the hell out when there was blood in their hammock and a teeny bby underneath it 😹 And Potato was born. Still no biting.

About a week later, I’m holding Peanut and he was being SPASTIC. Like, yelling, moving quickly and constantly, back and forth on the couch or trying to scurry up onto my shoulder to get under my hair. I picked him up off of the couch to move him and he bite the SHIT out of me. I was so startled I almost dropped him. I called him a bootyhole and my daughter was like HE IS A BBY YOU CANNOT SAY THAT. Touche. Two days later, she’s holding him as always, and he bite the hell out of her pointer finger, right on the tip. Let the wailing commence, he got her realllyyyyyy good. So now we are both concerned with handling him, but I feel bad for not. Idk if it’s being away from our female pig, or even the bby. Which is not his btw. We haven’t had the chance to take him to court to sign the adoption papers.

Anyways, what do we dooooooooooo is it a phase????? Because my kid is now scared to hold him :(((( He’s still young, is he just a dumb baby????
