Confessions of a Cavy Slave
HOLIDAYS 2012!!!
Things have been really hectic this past year for me and the pigs, but we managed to take some holiday photos!! Here are the ones that made the card.
Chex, doing his innocent expression.
Riley, building (read: deconstructing) a snowman.
And his Royal Highness, Frosty the Snowpig!
Now, for some of the more memorable outtakes:
Chex, mesmorized by the snowflake backdrop.
Riley breaking down the set, mid-shoot.
Spike got tired and took a rest during the shoot. It's hard gettin' old.

Lynx- I'd love to submit Spike for the calendar! Please let me know where to send the pic!
Well, Spike's 5th!! birthday blew in with the blizzard yesterday!
Still fat, sassy, and headbutting since 2008!
On the heels of the storm, today is Riley's 4th birthday! He is the youngest of my pigs, so now they are all over the hill!
(One of the few pics where he is not beating someone up. It's just because he's so sensitive!)

Ohhhh my goodness welcome back! SPIKE!!! I missed him to much! *Mwah* he has such a sweet face <3 Is he still really big? How much does he weigh?
Spike is enormous. He is back up to 1500g. He was having health issues in the summer, and it turned out he injured his tooth. As soon as it fell out, he gained 200g in a week!
Riley has levelled out at 1250g, having lost some muscle tone as he aged. Chex is still 900g. There are probably rats that weigh more than him. Haha!
I'm trying to plan an "Over the Hill" party for the boys, but have health issues that are quite problematic at the moment. We shall see how it turns out!
Lynx- I will try and send the Spike pig to you!

I'm glad to hear that Spike's tooth issues have been resolved as had been following his medical thread. Your boys are certainly no light weights. My heaviest girl is only just past the 900g mark, so next to my girls, Chex would still be a hunk. And Spike ... he would be the weight to aspire to.
