A couple of weeks ago I got a phonecall from the wonderful people who now own Mathilda and Vegemite, our two ‘miniature’ pigs, to say that Mathilda had given birth to eight piglets! The stories of Mathilda and Vegemite are here:

Here are some pictures this family kindly took for me as I haven’t yet had a chance to visit. The pictures were emailed to me this morning and I was overjoyed! It is so great to know that Mathilda and Vegemite are so happy at their new home, although I still miss them terribly.
Apparently Mathilda has taken to motherhood with alacrity, as you can see!
There is nothing like a pig picture to pep a person up!
When Son eventually gets up from his slumber, I am going to scare the hell out of him and say I have decided to bring the spotty one home – hehehehe! I will wait until his shock begins to turn into rage and then I will say “just kidding!”
I can’t wait to take the pictures in to show Husband – he will be delighted.
Oh, and Vegemite is about to give birth too!

Oh gosh! How cute!
The cute phase doesn’t last long!
Hi,
They are just so cute, I love the little black and white one, doesn’t that one stand out among all the others. 😀
I agree.
I want one! I’ll take the brown one, no wait, the spotted one, oh, but the little one with the white forehead will match my two dogs…
Aww… piglets! 😉

I’ll send one over – hehe!
Much better then the pork sausages we envisaged. M.L.
Ha!
Reblogged this on Ann Novek–With the Sky as the Ceiling and the Heart Outdoors.
Thank you!!!
How cute!
I want Mathilda and her bumpkins back!
They look really cute – and so many colours – the black and white one is my favourite though.
Me too!
Wish we had that spotted one to show at 4H showmanship competitions, that would get the judges looking at the kid !
Haha!
