The Charlotte Chronicles
Posting this as an apology to PinkRufus and Lynx: I really and truly did not know that I wasn't supposed to post those breeders' pigs in the Cavy Placement forum. I'm TRULY sorry, if I had known I NEVER would have done that. :'( I'm so, so sorry. I feel really bad. . .

I understand that you were only trying to help those pigs in bad conditions to find homes. They deserve good homes too. However, when you aide mill/irresponsible breeders, they will only be encouraged to treat more animals the same way. The show breeder who is giving the pregnant sow with an unknown background away for free, may have rescued that sow, but the fact that she is being given away for free isn't responsible. Because that would indicate that they don't care what kind of place the sow would end up in. What would they be rescuing her from if she could end up in a worse place? It's sad, and hopefully those animals will eventually find their way to a good forever home. Anyway, now you know what the placement forum here is for!
And let me just say, I posted those two pretty shortly after one another, so it wasn't that I saw your warning and continued to do it. I'm not one to ignore authority, especially when everyone here has been SO kind and helpful with all my piggy-related questions. :) But thank you for explaining the breeder issue.

Humybee, my boys want toys, too! I need to go through my boxes of stuff and see what I've got that would be appropriate for them to climb on and in.
GuineaPigMomo1, you have inspired me! :D

Thanks guys! It was a pretty nice set up for when she didn't have the big cage. When she gets going, she is probably the biggest popcorn-er I have ever seen.
Happy 1st birthday to Charlotte "Charlie" Einstein, my little bundle of joy and love of my life! It's hard to imagine that I've almost had you a whole year! Here's to many, many years ahead I hope! (And hopefully to a cage mate) I love you little girl!!!!
