We Went to the Vet Today!

Hey guys!
Before you get all worried, it was only for nail trimming. It takes 2 people and my sister hates the pigs, my dad is out of town a lot, and it scares my mom. So, we take them to our vet and let them do it.
So, we put the girls in little baskets (seperately) and hopped in the car. Poor pigs, they were in the car for 20 minutes more than they had to be because my mom got lost. So, when we got there, we sat in the waiting room thing for like 5 minutes and then a person walked in. It happened to be the lady that runs the shelter we got my girls from! She walked into a room before we could say hi, though.
So, the vets took Rosie first and took her into a room in the baack and shut the door. About 7 seconds later we heard WHEEK WHEEK WHEEK WHEEK WHEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! which surprised us because Rosie is the calm one who only squeeks for food. It was the loudest thing I have ever heard! I love her so much and to think of her in pain nearly brought me to tears! But, in a way it's a good thing because she knows that if she voices the fact that she's uncomfortable, she won't be hurt. (We would never hurt her!) Bella squeeked louder than Rosie, but it didn't worry me because Bella isn't a Ridgeback. She is a wimp and a drama queen mixed!
After Bella came out, we asked the nurses if we could stay to say hi to the lady, and they said we could. So, we waited for like 20 minutes because she was picking up some of her pigs that were boarding there, and then when she came out we said hi and thanked her for doing what she does. I think Bella didn't remember her because Bella was only 7 weeks old at the shelter, but I think Rosie remembered her because Rosie was 7 months old.
After we got home, the pigs seemed stressed from all that happened. But, more than stressed, they seemed tired because it's a lot of work to scream as loud as a human and squirm like crazy at the same time!
Thanks for reading!
