I lost my Flashbang Fatbottom last night after multiple bladder stone and kidney stones. He was the smartest piggy I have ever known. He was a very handsome black and white Abby pig.

Whenever it was time for veggie service, Flashbang would chase around his piggy friend Fireball if the food didn't show up soon enough. It was as if he was saying "act cuter so the food will show up!"

When he was a pup, he would always snuggle up to Fireball in a pigloo. When he got big, he still would snuggle up to Fireball, which was a pretty tight squeeze. He was a such a friendly pig.

He was so smart and an excellent pigloo driver. One of my favorite memories of Flashbang involves pigloo driving. One day, Benito poked him in the rump and then ran away. Flashbang ran into a pigloo, and then started motoring it to where Benito was sitting. Benito moved, so the pigloo missed, and eventually bumped into the side of the piggy arena wall. Flashbang came out, got his bearings, turned the pigloo around, and made another beeline for Benito. This time he got Benito. It was just a gentle bump with the pigloo but it was so funny!

It is so hard to lose a piggy, but I did my best for the little guy and I like to think he had a good piggy life.
