Hello All! I'm Amelia. I live in Eastern Washington and work as a receptionist. I bike commute to work (and have never driven a vehicle) I have a huge amount of interests including crafting, writing letters, tarot and other oracle cards, and love traveling to various Hotsprings and mineral pools. I could go on and on...
I have been attempting to rescue or adopt a piggy for the past few months, to no avail. So, I broke down and purchased a Mom Piggy and her last baby from my local mom and pop pet shop, yesterday. I originally had my eye on two babies (one with cute rosettes) but on the day they were ready to be sold, by the time I got there, there was only one female baby left. I didn't want her to be alone, so I took the Mommy too. I have yet to name them but there are really cute black and white short hairs.
I am wondering about post natal care for the mommy. Is there anything special I need to do for her?
The baby was born 4/30 is there any thing different I need to do for her?
Something I have not seen so far in my researching is requirements regarding temperature. Specifically heat tolerance. I have their cage in one of my upstairs bedroom so they can have peace and quite, but it gets warm up there. Do they do ok in hot summer weather?
Thank you for your time, I look forward to getting to know you all and hope to be able to contribute positively to the forum someday!
