As embarassing as it is to admit, we must make a 'slight' correction to the
roster of the Okie Piggies.  The newest additions, 'The Boyz', Hotshot and
Buzzz, got to tag along with Lil' Whistle today to visit Felicia at Southern
Agriculture (she's our local piggie expert). When LW wasn't interested in
his Piggie Buffet this morning, I feared he was having a recurring bout with
impaction. And apparently I was right, but he's all better now, thank you.
But when I introduced Felicia to The Boyz, she announced, 'let's see, this
one is a nice little satin, nice little girl'.  What!!!  Yes, on closer inspection,
turns out Buzzz is Buzzzette!  Hotshot, luckily for him, he says, remains
a guy.  (no wonder he was growing so much bigger and faster!)  
I can't believe I simply took those people's word that both were boys, little
brothers. Maybe they thought so, maybe they thought that way we'd take
both of them, I don't know. But I can't believe I didn't look!  
Well, we love them both, and so far no monkey business (but I'll sure be
watching them closely!)  But all three got to go to PetSmart for a surprise
appearance/tour afterward, and were excited at all the colorful toys and
good-smelling stuff. They won more hearts, of course, and several different
people announced they were going to adopt guinea pigs now, though not
from the store (I gave them Felicia's name).  I really must get their names
painted on their carriers for these appearances, maybe carry 8x10 glossies
and they could do signings . . .
So, now the Okie Piggies are officially evenly mixed, 3 girls and 3 boys ;-)
Wheeks!
Susi and the Okie Piggies
Snowy, CocoPuff, Lil' Whistle & Rosie
Hotshot & Buzzzette!
