Squeeker's Big Day

[tatsxxx11]

The wee one is home, safe and sound, all snuggly in his house! As usual when the kids have a procedure, I made a HUGE fuss when they brought him out to me. But, how else could I react??? They had him all wrapped up in a towel with just his sweet little head, fur all askew, (you know, like shampoo hair spikes) eyes wide as , VERY groggy!! They shaved his belly and he was all painted with betadine!! Of course, as soon as they handed him to me, he made poopies and pee-d on my chest! Oh, and he got a manicure!! They told me that they board piggies, and I know that there he would get wonderful care! The office manager is a tech. specialist in pocket pets, and she handed me a zillion handouts on piggie care and health, and quizzed me (nicely) on my care and feeding of him. She's a real stickler for proper care and detail, so, should I need to, I will feel very comfortable leaving him with them. Of course, as soon as he saw Ben, the 15 yr. old Macaw, he perked up!! And Dr. Morgan does Greyhound rescue, and there was a lovely, senior Grey napping on the floor on her blankie! Nice place and people!! Squeeks just had a bit of pineapple and parsley and fresh water and is sleeping! So, everything's set for the "communion!" I got my "proof of purchase" certificate and in two weeks, we will go to the shelter to pick up his bride. They said I have to wait 2 whole weeks before she can come to live. Male piggies can still make babies up to 2 weeks after the "snip!" Boy, did I learn a lot today! Thanks "everbuddy" so much for being such supportive pals! You're the best! (And Squeekers say "wheeky wheeky" to you all! (That's "love you" in piggy jive!!) Love, Sandra
