🐹A little adventure with Daisy & Buddy🐹

Oh, what a day our hooman has had 😱🚗

We were SO disappointed that we couldn’t make it to our visit today. We were all ready for cuddles, fuss and spreading our usual piggy happiness, but our car decided it had other plans!🙈

Instead, we ended up having a little adventure
🚨🚔

First, our hooman had to be towed off a dangerous road by the police. Thank goodness they were there to help! We even got to travel with the blue lights on 🚨

Then a lovely passer-by went out of their way to take our hooman to a petrol station to fill a jerry can and bring her back to the car. So so very kind 💛

But the adventure wasn’t over yet! The car battery had decided to give up too, so we waited for the recovery vehicle, which arrived in speedy time. Phew! 😰

This was especially important because our hooman has Type 1 diabetes and didn’t have many snacks with her. Of course, we offered to share our salad 🥬🐹, but apparently salad doesn’t have enough carbohydrates to help her blood sugars when she needs a proper snack 🫣Honestly, hoomans are so complicated! 😂

We even got to enjoy a ride on a TRUCK! 🚛 What an exciting day out… although we would have much preferred to have spent it meeting lovely new friends Oaklands Rest Home
We are looking forward to seeing you soon though 🫶🏼

The best part of the day? Meeting so many lovely people who went out of their way to help our hooman. There was kindness, patience and even a few giggles along the way. Because sometimes, when everything goes wrong, all you can do is laugh! 🥰

And talking of lovely people… what a wonderful wheek we’ve had! 🌼

🐹💛 Templeton Place - It was lovely to see Kiya again! We always love catching up with familiar friends and sharing our little bit of piggy magic.

🐹💛 West Cliff Hall - Lily joined Buddy for this visit and got to meet a lovely new member of staff. We also met so many friendly people who treated us to delicious little treats. We were definitely feeling very spoilt! 😋🥬

🐹💛 The Wicketts - Yesterday was extra special because we had our VERY FIRST visit!

Anita and the wonderful staff introduced us to the lovely residents, and oh my goodness, we were SO excited to meet everyone. It turned out they were just as excited to meet us!

There were gentle strokes, so much love, happy faces and lots of singing. 🎶🐹 We absolutely love seeing the smiles we bring and feeling all those gentle hands giving us fuss. Moments like these remind us exactly why we do what we do 🥰

We might be little piggies, but we know that a little bit of love, a furry cuddle and a happy wheek can make a BIG difference 💛

We’re looking forward to seeing you all again very soon!

Lots of wheeks, whisker kisses and extra-special piggy cuddles,

Daisy, Buddy, Lily & Rosie 💛

🐹🌼 Wheeeeeek, wheeeeeek…
🎂 HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO OUR HOOMAN!🎂🎉

Today is a VERY special day because it’s our hooman Kelly’s birthday 💛🥳

We think she deserves the BEST birthday cake ever, so we made her a very special cake,…a cake Buddy!

Okay, okay… we may have had some help from our hooman uncle but we did manage to encourage Buddy to stay still and pose 😂

We think it’s pretty amazing! Although Buddy has been giving it some VERY suspicious side-eye… 👀😂

“Excuse me, Uncle… if that’s supposed to be me, where are my whiskers? And why am I made of cake?!”

Daisy is wondering whether a little nibble might be allowed, Lily is already wheeking for strawberries to accompany her slice, Rosie is plotting how to sneak a piece, and Buddy is trying to work out whether he should be flattered or worried 🤪

Of course, we piggies know that the BEST present Kelly could ever receive is unlimited cuddles, endless veggie treats, and four little furry faces to make her smile every day 💕 We wouldn’t say no to a little extra cucumber ourselves 😉

Happy Birthday, Kelly! 🎈🌼 Thank you for loving us, looking after us, and taking us on all our little Daisy Buds adventures to spread comfort and happiness to others 🥰

We hope your day is filled with love, laughter, cake and plenty of piggy kisses 💛

Lots of wheeks and birthday snuggles,

🐹 Daisy, Buddy, Lily & Rosie 🐹

P.S. Uncle, that cake is almost too cute to eat… ALMOST! 🤭🎂

🐹🌼 A little update from Daisy & Buddy🌼🐹

We’ve been a little quiet on our socials recently, but don’t worry, we’ve still been very busy visiting all our lovely friends in all the lovely homes! 🥰💛

Our chief caregiver has just been a bit of a busy bee 🐝

She’s been spending lots of time creating some very special care packages for patients with lung cancer, made possible by some absolutely amazing donations to Carol Cares, all in memory of her lovely Mum, Carol 💛

Alongside her fabulous colleagues, she also been fundraising for Maggie’s Cancer Care Centre in Southampton. Today they held a cake sale and raised lots of 💰 for Maggie’s who have supported her so wonderfully and are also providing amazing support to a lovely friend and fellow colleague, who is currently going through some incredibly tough treatment 🌼💕

It’s been a busy and emotional time, but doing something positive in Mum’s memory has meant so much☀️

Meanwhile, we - Daisy & Buddy, have been doing what we do best…..providing plenty of cuddles, wheeks and a bit of guinea pig happiness wherever we go! 🥰

Thank you to all our lovely care home friends for continuing to welcome us with open arms. We’re so very grateful for every visit and every smile we bring 💕

We might be quiet online sometimes, but Daisy Buds is still very much out and about! 🌼🐾

Comforting hearts, one paw at a time 💛

Love,
Daisy & Buddy, Lily & Rosie
