[Gpdd] MISC: Bedlington

[corrine sakumoto]

My apologies to my little boy, this is quite late!  After Baby Truffles went, we were at the pet store.  Well, let me start by saying that Lambo was my first all white piggie (we think he was part himalayan) and when I was considering getting him, all I could think of was, won't he be difficult to keep WHITE??!!  Turns out, yes, his bottom part anyway, but he became the love of my life!  Then came Peppermint.  She was all white but her fur was nothing I'd ever felt before, extremely soft but sort of 'oily' feeling but not oily, but oily 'feeling.'  She was my best bud.  Then came Blossom, mother to white and orangey brown Baby Truffles, and the best 'smiler' in the world!  Cuddly too!  Then Snowy Bear.  He and I had an unbreakable bond.  We understood each other.

So, in the pet store is this tiny white piggie, all alone.  My eyes got big and I said, it's a white piggie!  Of course I had just lost Baby Truffles so I was devastated but after Blossom went, I no longer had a white piggie.  Michael asked to see the piggie and he held him close to my face and asked me, don't you want to take him home?  I just smiled and that's how we got Bedlington.  He was tiny so I would always say to him, you're so tiny!  Work hard to get plump!  I love plump piggies!  And now, nearly seven months later, he's done it!  He's a nice big boy now!  He eats pretty much everything I give to him.

He loves to sit on my shoulder and dig through my hair.  Or, what he's started to do lately is that he smothers my cheek with piggie kisses.  And when I clean his pen, he popcorns all over the place.  And whenever I look at him, he has the most unbelievable smile!  I do strongly believe that Blossom and Baby Truffles sent Bedlington to me.  He's such a happy little boy!

So please welcome Bedlington to the GPDD family
