[Gpdd] MISC- shy piggies

[Ronald Zimmerman]

  To the person who asked about shy piggies, sorry I missed your post. As 
someone who fosters alot of piggies for our local Humane League, I am used 
to having piggies that are skittish. I find talking to them before you come 
in the room helps so they are not so surprised. Also, don't chase them 
around the cage trying to catch them. Talk softly to them & try petting them 
for a minute before scooping them up & hold them securely against you so 
they feel safe. It can take alot of time with some piggies. My first piggie 
Albert took a *long* time to come around, but eventually we were 
inseperable. Food helps alot too!
