Way-aye. Roscoe here, and I’m all sparkling clean.
Mam took me and Neville downstairs on Friday afternoon to have a bath. She’d been threatening Neville with a bath for a week or two. I don’t know why I had to have one too, but there you go.
Nev had his hair cut as well. About 3/4ths of an inch, I think. Not so much as he had done in summer. I think that’s to keep him warm enough. We were lovely and warm in the room after our bath. Mam had a wood fire going. And she watched some horses jumping over fences while she rubbed us dry. Actually, y’know, combing us dry would have been a better description. She rubbed my hair so I was all fluffy, then combed it up the wrong way to let the air in to dry it. It felt right funny, I can tell you.
I’ve been having a nice time in the run upstairs. Biggles got his extended for one panel over Bertie’s in the week. He’s a happy boy now, cos he’s got lots more space to laze around in. And he got a big treat — Mam put Percy’s bed in for him yesterday. He’s a very happy boy now.
It doesn’t really go downhill in that corner nearest us. Mam says it’s an Hoptical Hillusion. So we’ve all got beds and snuggle tunnels. That’s fair.
See you next time
Roscoe xx

Very nice setup up and Christmas decorations.
I gave Augustus a butt bath the other day, and he was very well-behaved. I dread giving his big brother a bath: normally a gentle and placid pig, Digby becomes a maniac in the tub. His butt is pretty clean and nonsmelly, so I’ll just let him be.

Very festive, Roscoe! I love a nice warm bath myself. You feel so clean afterward, and you get to get combed and rubbed dry. I’m envious!

The Lilie dog I share this place with likes baths. I can’t understand why.
Glad you all have plenty of play space, and nice warm snuggle tunnels and things too. With the colder weather here, you probably need them. I know I’m glad of my nesting box right now.
Squeak soon,
Joshua

Nice set-up. We have most of ours in the shed – but we do get them out on the grass as much as possible – it’s surprisingly warm here in England at the moment, so plenty of grass.
