Introducing Three New Piggyfriends

Hello readers! My name is Carter and I am a new Piggyfriend. I am a white and silver agouti boar.

I was dumped on someone's doorstep in a cardboard box and was taken to Palace Piggies rescue. There were lots of piggies living there all waiting for new homes amongst whom were three little sisters. They were all on pregnancy watch as they had been visited by a boar who jumped into their pen at their previous home.

Luckily they proved not to be pregnant but one of them did not get on with her sisters, so she went to live with another boar and the others came to live with me. The nice ladies who run Palace Piggies said that the girls were keen on escaping and were not used to being picked up and they raced around the pen when my new Slave came to see us. I was a good boy and she picked me up for a cuddle. Then she managed to catch the girls.

She took us all home with her and we now live in a roomy corner pen. There are lots of other piggies here, some of whom also came from Palace Piggies.

Slave liked my name but decided to change that of my friends and here is a photo of Saoirse. Her name means freedom in Gaelic, which seemed appropriate as she was trying to get away when Slave came to see us.

And here is her sister, whom Slave has renamed Aoife. I can tell them apart as Saoirse has black patches over both eyes whereas Aoife only has a patch on one side. They are Abyssinians. Slave says that most Abbies are excitable.

Some of the piggies here have told me than I can be an Undercover Agent as I am a big, grown up piggy and I think that will be very exciting. My little friends are too skittish at the moment but I expect that they will calm down when they have been here for a while.

I actually have pink eyes but my friends eyes are black and Slave apologises for her poor photography. I don't know much about this but Slave says that she will take some better photos when they will sit still.

Here is a pigture of us all having some grass. Yum, yum!


Slave says that I should tell you how to pronounce their names. Aoife sounds like Eefa and Saoirse sounds more or less like Seersha. I am just going to call them my friends. I love having friends. Life is good.
