Tribble is a mainly-black short haired
tortoiseshell female, born in May 1997.
Initially she was very small, timid and submissive
but has always had an adventurous streak. Now she is older, she has calmed
down, but still remains the most inquisitive of the NoisyPigs.
Generally, Tribble is very well behaved. As with
many pigs, she is not keen on being picked up but settles down reasonably well
during lap-time. Tribble loves her food and is usually the first to
the food bowl - she is also very skilled at balancing on two legs to reach up
and grab the first mouthful! We think she may have a long-haired parent or
grandparent because she has quite long, silky hair compared to the other
NoisyPigs.
When she thinks food may be on offer Tribble is
just as loud in the wheeking department as Splotch and Hobnob: and she is often
the one to start the wheeking chorus!
Tribbles tawny-brown bands of fur have
caused me to nickname her my Lioness. |
