Hi all,

I got my 3rd piggie on Thursday. Prangus from guinealynx went and got her out of the shelter for me on Wednesday and then I picked her up from Prangus's moms house on Thursday. She is a sweet little girl about 2-3 months old. I haven't taken any pictures of her myself but you can see her at this link:

The shelter had her in bad conditions. She was on cedar and had a pellet mix to eat and Prangus said the cage smelled very bad and had some kind of cat pole thing in there too. Her name was Scarlett but she has been renamed to Charity. She was in the cage with her mom and Prangus wanted to try to get the mom too but they refused saying the mom was there as a permanent resident.

I gave my piggies a new C&C cage for Christmas. I built it Friday night after finally finding the cubes. It's a 2x4 with a 3 grid corner loft. Right now it has a temporary ramp but my dad is going to make me a ramp out of a 3' piece of pvc pipe with the top third cut off and I will line it with fleece for traction. CoCo and Chatty are in the new cage, loving it and running up and down between the levels and Charity is in a quarantine cage. I am going to expand the cage in January by adding an extra 1x3 to the side and 2 more grids on the loft to make a U shaped loft on top. I can't expand it now due to the Christmas tree being up and not having enough grids.
 
Congratulations on your new piggy,it is a very cute one and great job on getting her out of that cedar as you know it can cause health problems.Again a big congatulations.
 
Good job for getting one from a shelter! It's a.d.o.r.a.b.l.e
