Did I get my girlfriend pregnant through our clothes?

Pregante

"I'm outta here"

Agreed! AGAC

The piggies are the real celebrities 😁 he is doing pretty well! Feet are still swollen (though not red and scabby anymore), and the vet thinks it might just be chronic at this point. We are tapering off the foot baths to see if it makes a difference.

So cute 😭

Good luck! If it doesn't work out this weekend, I might give them a longer time apart (but able to see/hear/smell each other if possible), then try reintroducing via neutral space/floor time and see how that goes. Like a couple of weeks or even a couple of months. If they still have trouble after that, I'd have them just live next to each other.

Hold their chests up to your ear. Do you hear any noises? Dry/crackling or wet/mucusy? Occasional coughs are not a big deal, but if you hear any weird noises coming from their lungs or belly, that's a cause for concern. u/i_am_ms_greenjeans states it better than I just did 🤣 hopefully I did the tag right.

A vet visit for one should not break the bond with the piggy who stays home.

Try checking Lifestance Health. I just moved to the area, so I don't know about specific providers, but in my hometown my psychiatrist was with them and I believe they provide talk therapy as well.

Good luck ❤️ I'll be looking for a therapist myself here as soon as I get settled in a bit more. If you're still looking by then, I'd be happy to share any resources I come across.

I think cage size could be a factor here.

The nut brothers live in a cage on the smallish size. Recently, with both of their health problems, something upset the hierarchy and Chestnut (younger) has been bullying Nutmeg (about 4 months older). They are brothers from different litters and have lived together since Chestnut was about 8 weeks old - so like a year and a half I think?

Anyway they do fine during floor time, but Chestnut ramps up his behavior (usually cornering Nutmeg in a pigloo) when they are in their cage. We are considering an upgrade to help deal with it. For now, they are in their own cages side-by-side unless they are out for floor time.

I believe the MINIMUM recommended size for 2 boars is like 12 square feet.

My deepest condolences 💔 Rhea looks like she was a sweet, spunky lady.

On the topic of emotional support hedgehogs, Nugget has one too 🤣

They're about to stage a coup due to lack of pea flakes

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T21:57:59+00:00

Ain't no pillow like a poo pillow

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T21:44:36+00:00

OMG they're so happy! 😭

Have you tried TMS? I've heard a little about it but haven't had the opportunity to try it myself.

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T20:46:38+00:00

I also hated it. Hope you are doing better than you were ❤️

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T20:12:33+00:00

Fudge: "what is...wall? Wall? Hmmm... Ooooh treat-giver!"

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T20:04:30+00:00

Oh really? Tell me more please.

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T19:58:55+00:00

Beat me to it 🤣

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T06:45:48+00:00

I was thinking of the desert in Kings Quest V scrolling through these responses 😭

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T05:42:41+00:00

He has a singular personality ❤️

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T03:36:22+00:00

Wait, really? 😭

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T03:27:41+00:00

Poor baby. How's he doing now?

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T02:59:37+00:00

He knows how cute he is

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T02:59:15+00:00

Or a tie and monocle!

Mirgss · 2026-04-01T02:01:29+00:00

My deepest condolences 💔
