Musking?
My little girl Charlotte is usually a sweetheart, but does have her "Hoggie PMS" moments here and there. Last week was one of those times, and she was being a real cranky pants! She never strikes or anything, but was puffing and posing for a few days - and emitting what I believe was musk. OMG, it smelled like death. Seriously, her tub smelled soooooo bad, like poop mixed with a long dead mouse... and no, it wasn't actually poop or a regurge (I checked thoroughly). I had to give both her and the tub a thorough washing, and luckily she's back to her friendly self again.
Was she musking in the tub, and is that common for hoggies? She's only done this once before, when she escaped and came face-to-face with my cat... luckily I found her quickly, thanks to the LOUD hissing sound she also emitted. I just thought it was weird she did this in her tub, not on me or anyone else that I could tell. Just getting out her frustrations, I guess!
