BASIL
Basil is a Black and White American Boar. I adopted Basil from my local animal shelter in October of 2000 as an adult. Basil is a very loving a affectionate piggie and loves comming out to be cuddled. His favourite foods are fresh grass, hay and carrots. Basil dislikes baths! Basils favourite things are being held like a baby and having his tummy tickled, floor time, having his head scratched, food, food, and more food! :0)

BELLA
Sadly Bella passed over the rainbow bridge on the 20th April 2002, but she will remain in our memories for a long time to come.
Bella is a self Slate American Sow. I bought Bella from a pet shop in January of 2000 and she was pregnant. Three weeks later she had a self black American boar. I think Bella is a purebred ex-breeding pig. She is a sweet little girl, but isn't very cuddly, although she loves to be close and will eat out of my hand. Her favourite foods are cuccumber, Rolled oats, and fresh grass! Her dislikes are being picked up, and having her claws clipped. In December of 2000 Bella developed an abscess on her lower jaw and had to be operated on so that the abscess could be drained. This is a very risky proccedure and i had lost my first guinea pig from this. She came out of the operation well and was put on anitbiotics for 10 days, which unfortunalty did not kill the infection. Her medication was changed and all of the infection killed. Bella is now a very happy healthy little girl and is the healthiest she has ever been and putting on weight and getting quite fat! :0). Bella's favourite activity is sleeping under her towel, and playing hide and go sek under the towel with Mrs Tiggy Winkle. She also LOVES her floor time.
MRS TIGGY WINKLE
Mrs Tiggy Winkle or Tiggy is a Self Pink Eyed White Perivian Sow. I adopted her from the pet store on the 12th April 2001 and her aproximate birth date is 13th March 2001. She is a very sweet cuddly little girl and an absolute doll! Her favourite foods are red lettuce, sweet potato, and choko. Tiggy doesn't like being groomed very much, and will squeal as if she was being murdered when being combed and clipped, even though she's not being hurt in any way. But being a peruvian she will have to get used to it. She loves having cuddles and watching tv with me at night time and having under her chin rubbed and scratched.
