  Hi everyone!
   
  I have been reading the digest for a while now (more like peeping since I never say anything!) and wanted finally to introduce my 2 boars.  They are Coby and Ollie and my husband and I think they must be muts.  One has longer, wavy hair in black, white and tan and the other has short hair that sticks up all over the place in black, white and tan.  We don't think they're brothers, but we bought them together from a family-run pet store down the street where they were cage mates.  We think they're about 3 years old and we love them more than anything.  Speaking of strollers, they have one!  Word of warning: watch out if it turns dark while you're walking them.  Ours were sniffing the air and having a great time until it got dark and they freaked.
   
  I'm in the LA area and I have a WONDERFUL vet, Liz.  It's in Studio City, which might be a drive for you since you were going in Long Beach.  The information is:
   
  Studio City Animal Hospital
  11800 Ventura Boulevard
  Studio City, CA 91604
  (818) 769-1338
   
  They have an exotics person there every day, so you'll never be without help if you need it.  We have seen two different doctors, both of them wonderful:  Dr. Marianna Savransky and Seema Singeetham.  We have taken our pigs in for regular check-ups and one major constipation scare (Coby didn't chew his spinich very well and jammed himself up!)  I hope this place suits you.  Everyone there is very nice and they always love to see the pigs.  
   
  Thanks everyone for all your advice!  I love reading the digest and am so glad it's here.  I also want to offer support to those of you who have lost wee ones lately.  I dread the day, but reading about all of your strength and compassion gives me hope that I'll make it through when the day comes.

Calling all Los Angeles residents - do you know of a good cavvy savvy 
vet?  I have been going to Dr. Ridgeway of the Long Beach Animal 
hospital, but I am starting to think he doesn't really know much more then any 
other vet.  Thank you in advance!

Liz
