So this is our news :) It's probably not as big as all of you were expecting buts its big news for us and for Charlie especially :) Charlie has a new friend :) Please meet Davidson!!! Davidson has come to live with us all the way from......Leduc!!! :) lol :) We drove over to get him this evening and instantly fell in love with this darling little fellow :)
Isn't he cute? He's TINY compared to Charlie!
He's 6 months old and weighs about 40lbs. He's housetrained and such a sweetie pie! So cute to look at! Reminds me a lot of how Charlie looked when we got her! A lady on LP contacted us last week and asked us if we were interested in rehoming a piggy because her Sister had a pig that needed a new home. We were away at the time so we asked if we could wait until this week.
We've been looking for a friend for Charlie for a while now so this worked out perfectly! Tonight we finally made it over to Leduc to meet Davidson and bring him home :) He got back here and ad a nose around the front yard. He finished off Abigails apple and had fun playing with the children with a hoop.
We introduced him briefly to Charlie - but we want to do this very gradually over the next few days. He did meet Jasper though who looked stunned at how small Charlie was all of a sudden :)
I hope Charlie and Davidson get along well - we'll spend the next few days introducing them to each other gradually and spending time increasing the time they are together until they can be together all of the time. I don't want to just put them together straight away though in case there is any problem/ jealousy/ bullying or anything. there is such a size difference right now and Davidson is still very much a baby so he is sleeping inside in the mudroom right now and has his own bed and his blanket etc etc that he came with so he will feel at home.
It's been a busy day and I am so very tired now - I'm off to bed :) a new cat in the family and now a new piggy :) my parents always joke that with 5 children and all these animals, this place is a total zoo.......I guess they are right :)
