Pat


Pat is Freckles' big brother and best friend. Pat is particularly fond of St. Patricks day and green eggs and ham (he ate all of them today!) Pat likes to bowl with his brother Freckles, jump up and down on his trampoline, play scrabble, watch sponge bob, and he loves popcorn. He may be green but he's certainly not a jealous pig. He's very sweet and quiet and occasionally plays the acoustic guitar.

Freckles

FRECKLES HAS FOUND A HOME!! YAY!! Freckles is going to stay with Plushoff.etsy.com. YAY! I'm sure he will absolutely LURVE It!

Thanks Plushoff!!

Freckles has really nothing to hide. He is not ashamed of his spots. Not one itty bitty bit. As a matter of fact, he wears his spots with pride. He even sports a "smiley face" on his rear. It wasn't intentional, and he knows that makes him extra special.

Some pigs thought it looked funny because he had spots all over, and we all know that some pigs do have spots, but no one in his family has ever been born with them. So some pigs made fun of him, and he was sad at first, but after talking with his "mom" (aka ME) we both decided that his spots were beautiful and radiant and made him stand out amongst all the other pigs as a very lovely pig. And he has so many wonderful qualities. For example, he loves to eat his spinach, he is a fantastic bowler, he loves vanilla ice cream and rootbeer, he cleans his room and makes his bed every morning. He is a good pig, and we love his spots. Period.

Jumpin' Jax

Jumpin Jax was sold to JumpingJackDesigns !! Thanks JumpingJackDesigns! I know he will love his new home :)

Jumpin' Jax is a sweet little piggy. And he has a lot of fun too. Jax is a one of a kind. Not too many pigs are born blue ya know. He's only had two other brothers and one sister (all older) who are shades of blue, but none so handsome as he. Jax told me the other day that it was his turn to go on Etsy and find his family. I said "ok Jax, if that's what you want, we can do that." He replied "I thought I heard some jinglies on the ground somewhere and so I'd like to help take care of them."

What can you say to that?

Jax's favorite things include jumping in leaf piles, swinging on tire swings, and going REALLY high and REALLY fast in circles and making himself dizzy, hiding in his tree house where he made a sign that says "no chickens allowed!" He especially loves mowing the lawn on the riding lawnmower, mostly because when he's done, he likes to run up to his brother freckles and smile his big piggy smile with chunks of dirt and grass in his teeth and watch Freckles squeal with laughter. When Jax isn't playing in his tree house or swinging on his tire swing, he daydreams about flying a helicopter. Jax loves the water but he can't swim very well and doesn't like to get wet. He'd much rather wallow in the mud.

Ed


Ed is a great little pig. He is a trainee in the pig brigade, who looks up to his little bigger brothers Blitzen and Donner. Ed has a zest for life and loves candy canes and of all things, peanut butter bon bons. He really likes coins and bills and even if the coins are chocolate, he doesn't mind. So long as they're wrapped and kept cool. HA!

Blitzen


Blitzen has a lot of energy. His energy is best spent counting coins as you drop them in. Just like his brothers Donner and Ed, he doesn't fly unless propelled. But I wouldn't recommend that, most especially on a fully belly. He wanted to be a Christmas present, but it didn't work out. But it worked out for the best because I know there is someone on Etsy who will love and take care of Blitzen.

BLITZEN has been given as a gift for a new little baby boy!! YAY!!

Donner


Donner, Blitzen and Ed love Christmas. They really wanted to be Christmas presents, but it just didn't work out that way. But it's OK because I told all three of them that they would find a very happy home with some wonderful person on Etsy. They'd just have to be patient. Unlike the reindeer, this Donner doesn't fly unless propelled. Which I wouldn't recommend. Donner loves big fat dollar coins and likes the occasional paper bill for well, you know, fiber. Of course each cork is removable so you don't need to break this pig to get at his treasures. Just pop out his nose and give him a good shake.

2 pigs for Cottontail


These two pigs were made custom for Cottontail, who believe you me, was as patient as a saint!  It took me WAY too long to complete her order but she was very congenial about it, and I DO appreciate it.  These two piggies are a bit forlorn for right now because I didn't want to take the privilege to name them. I thought I'd leave that to her girls.   But they both have very sweet demeanors.  The purple piggy loves anything pirate and the "port wine" piggy, well, need I say more? :)  The girl's got good taste!!  :)  Enjoy these piggies Kat!
