First, there is Tazzy. She is the sweetest litte furry thing you ever met. She is also the Queen of the Cage, and rules Chicket with an iron paw.So who are these girls?
Who, you ask?
First, there is Tazzy. She is the sweetest litte furry thing you ever met. She is also the Queen of the Cage, and rules Chicket with an iron paw.
Then, there is Chicket. Ah, the rumpled fur! Ah, the cowlicks! Enough to drive the average hairdresser to drink! But Tazzy and I just love her. Too cute for words, eh?
This is Chicket's "Who, me?" expression. She uses this when she's caught filching Tazzy's food. It can be effective, but only if she's finished eating the food.
This is Tazzy's "Oh, you are so not fooling me!" expression. Like I said, Chicket's "Who me?" look isn't always effective.
Girls are so much more reasonable than boys. Look at how they curl up together to chat. I can live safe in the knowledge that they will always be happy little piggies.
Tazzy got sick. She got very, very sick, and in the end, she died. Chicket spent a lot of time comforting her in her last weeks of life.
So now there's a new piglet, Canig, in the house. She came from the animal shelter with a "not too bad" case of lice which took months and months to clean up. In the end. I managed.
Here's Chicket and Canig, the new girl. They make a cute little couple!
