May 2006
So far this month whee have...
- I'm still planning to do a site map
including page creation dates etc. I'm putting the plans for a Guestbook on
hold for now.
- Added 2 mini-movies of Jack [our bunny-in-law]
to the bottom of the Movies page !
- I am very sad to say a final 'sleep
tight' to a special little piggy called Rosy who made her trip over
the Rainbow Bridge on Tuesday 9th May to join her sister Daisy. Rosy was a
very spirited pig who we often referred to as 'Madam' and she lived with a
long-standing friend of mine, Jenny, since the Autumn of 2002. Jenny's late
piggy Sweety was one of the earliest Guest Piggies on the site, he passed
over the Rainbow Bridge in August 2002 and I'm sure along with Daisy and The
Wheekies he will be looking out for Rosy - Sweet Dreams little one and big
hugs for your 'mummy'. xxx
- Updated Useful
Links and GP Rescue Links pages.
- It was my birthday on the 13th May -
look at the brilliant cake my mother made me - the sponge was chocolate swiss
roll with chocolate and buttercream icing - and chocolate button eyes and
nose !
- Please join me in a very warm welcome
for little Timmy - he is Jenny's new little boar [see above] and is
a gorgeous little Rex who went to live with her on 13th May. He's settling
in well and getting braver by the day - Congratulations Jenny - he's adorable
!

Timmy - settling
in very well with Jenny !

Splat is Guinea
Pig of The Month for April 2006 at The
Cavy Den
|
- 05/04/06: Our
dear little Splattie passed over the Rainbow
Bridge on Wednesday 5th April 2006. It was very peaceful and luckily she was
at home with me so I was able to cuddle and stroke her all the while. Sleep
tight little one, say hello to Billy and the others for us and have a good
chomp on the spring grass, missing your sweet face, little pig xxxx Splattie
did get outside to enjoy the spring air and grass on Tuesday 4th April which
I am absolutely delighted about - pics of her in chomping action are on the
new movies page - how happy am I that I took those
!
- I've just added 15 new photos to Splattie's
page - all taken during her last month - be sure to check out my pretty
Splattie.
- There are some updates in the Supplies
and Useful Links pages.
- The FAQ#1
Page been updated and the FAQ #2 page is now
up - I hope these will be helpful - the FAQ's have been divided over 2 pages
and split into subjects and generally extended and updated.
- I'm thinking of adding a Guestbook feature
to the site but need to do some more research etc. I also have to load up
the sequence of photos of how we made our pen. I've just finished moving the
Creative/Crafty Cavies section, [which
has been up for probably nearly 5 years now] from a sub-menu topic into a
main Menu topic of it's own. I've also moved the 'how
we made our run' page [from the care section] there also include the 'how
we made our pen' page. Ive also included all the existing drawings, craft
projects etc pages that are already up. So, hopefully it is practical &
also a fun section. I've been attempting to draw
some guinea pigs which I've added as well -don't get excited - they are
very basic [I've also included some of our old 'wallpapers' in a smaller size
for historical reasons and also a couple of poems
about The Wheekies we've written over the years !
- I'm also thinking about doing a page
- perhaps like a site map of all the pages on the site, in a plain listing
with the dates of their creation - it always surprises me when I scroll through
the old Diary pages how long certain pages have been up - maybe that page
will be more of interest for just me though lol.
- I've been asked by [suprisingly!] many
people if I'm going to be re-forming my Wheekies herd - well, the answer
was going to be that I was going to wait a few months and then think about
whether I was ready to - but, as often happens, things happen in life and
situations present themselves, so ... all I can say for now is 'watch this
space.....' if it all goes according to plan - start thinking fuzziness, rumblestruts,
testosterone and grease-spots !
- We've loaded up a brand spanking
new page today !! The complete guide to The
Evolution of The Wheekies Herd ! See in a flash who arrived when, when
they departed over The Rainbow Bridge and find out who knew who etc !
- Added a few more photos to the Edible
Wild Foods and Poisonous
Plants pages taken over the Easter Weekend.
- There are a few new gif's of some of
my friends piggies on the Piggy Gif page and
a couple of new drawings done for me by my piggy friends on the Drawings
page !
- I've finally loaded up the photos of
how we Built our Wheekies Pen - which
we designed and built ourselves way back in 1996 - I hope you are inspired
!
- Thanks Emalee for the lovely framed
picture of Splattie [above], that was very thoughtful of you !
- Thankyou Jennifer for sending in a new
name for our Cavy Names page !
- Check out Lauren's wonderful Veggie
Pig ! Hmm making you feel creative ?
