Marie-
  It's perfectly normal for new piggies to be skittish for quite some time after you get them. You have to work very slowly with them & be very patient. My 1st piggie took 3-4 months before he completely came around & still sometimes he would make me chase him around the cage to catch him. Although, I think that was purely for his amusement! =) My new piggie has been with me just a little over a month & she will let me hold her some, but is still quite shy. She is partially blind though, so I think she'll take longer to come around. Just take it slowly & try & be patient with them. Feel free to e-mail me with any questions & the digest is an excellent source of info. There are many helpful people on here! 


***JAIME***, Molly the new pig in town! & Albert always in my heart.
