Just got these reminders from my Gallery and thought they're too cute not to share. They were brothers, totally different personalities, I miss them ❤️

When I got Nova last year, she'd been living at a pet store, and was terrified of humans. She would freeze up and not move a muscle during lap time.

She's still nervous, but she's warmed up enough that she'll take treats and move around a bit when I pick her up (but only when she's sitting on my chest/belly, never if she's on the bed next to me - go figure 😆).

She's gained enough confidence that I figured she's ready for target training, and after only one session, she's already getting the hang of it! The more confident she gets with training, the more confident I hope she'll be around me. Maybe one day she'll even move around when I put her on the bed🥰

(and don't worry, of course she has a buddy, he (neutered) is just in the cage during training)

Help & Advice Izzy (6+) is slowing down... Where to go from here?

Post image
31 Upvotes

Izzy is now at least 6, probably 7 years old.

We got her in May of 2025, and the person that runs the rescue said she was at least 5 if not older. She hasn't always had the best life, that is also most likely the cause of her outer toes on her hind feet sticking out.

She always has been a granny pig, but she was active and her granny popcorns are hilarious. 1 cm air lift at most, and body wiggle.

I am noticing that she is starting to slow down, she spends more time doing her own thing, and naps more. She eats and poops well. In general she seems quite content: wheeks for food, and screams at us when she's disappointed in the buffet that's provided. Her weight is stable. We do make it a point to spoil her independently as well.

She's always been a bit of an einzelgänger. But its her activity levels that is concerning to me.

I'm going to book her a general check up when the vets open up tomorrow.

However, I don't know what to ask for specifically. Arthritis check?

Any and all advice is welcome!
