Paula, you're right, it is hard to watch! When Cuy was with us, he and Gus never fought. There never even seemed to be a dominant pig, they were pretty equal. So this whole thing must be a real shock for poor Gus. I just have to keep telling myself that I did this FOR Gus, not TO him. This is supposed to be positive for him. I'm optimistic about the whole thing.

I'm finishing up cleaning the cage, and waiting on a final load of pig laundry, then I'll make the decision whether I should put them in the cage or the tub! Right when I think things have calmed down, I hear crazy noises out of my kitchen. I'm in the dining room listening to them, but there is an island between them and me, I don't bother them unless I hear anything crazy.

My son is so funny!! When Cal is mounting Gus he says "Look Mom! They're hugging! I think they're friends now!" I just tell him they have to get all that "hugging" out of their system before we put them together in the cage!!
