as small as a world and as large as alone

Look at my baby girls getting along!  Yay!!! ♥ ♥ ♥ 

Cookie still can’t quite get over how hyper Biscotti is, but they both get excited when it’s hang-out time.  If Biscotti is in the cage, she’ll start biting the bars from the inside and Cookie will bite them from the outside lol (like in the middle photos).  I found that the way to Cookie’s heart when it comes to Biscotti is to surround her with food while ‘Scooti runs around and popcorns.  They both love to eat together~

However, not everything is perfect.  Biscotti is, how you say…a total idiot.  She insists on eating whatever piece of food Cookie is currently eating.  The dork will actually stick her head in Cookie’s mouth, and then wonder why Cookie bites her.  I’ve deflected some of Cookie’s wrath (and by deflected I mean I took the bite full-force on my fingers), but ‘Scooti is just driving me nuts.  Cookie got her once tonight on the head pretty good, but ‘Scooti is gonna have to learn if she’s gonna live with her.

That’s actually totally normal baby behaviour. It’s how they learn what’s safe to eat! :)

Bandit used to do it all the time but stopped after Bubble bit him in the eye (Bubble isn’t partial to being around other piggies to begin with). But the older boys mostly just put up with it until then. It was really sweet how nice they were about it since they’re all such boogers to each other. I figured it was because he’s two years younger than they are, so until he was well over a year old they treated him like a baby. :)

Too bad Cookie doesn’t know it’s normal baby behaviour… :P
