We like Piggy Pouches, they mean treats!

      Whee Piggies are home from our stay with the lovely Claire. She is our favorite piggy friend! While we were gone, the cavy slaves had an idea!

How to make a Cuddle Cup

Not everyone is able to make these, for some people, it is just easier is buy one but you get a certain sense of accomplishment when you make one at home. You need a sewing machine or you should be good at hand sewing, otherwise the things you make won't hold together. We have used the same instructions for 4 different cuddle cups. What we have learned is that you need to keep checking back to the instructions because otherwise, you will likely mess up in someway that is fixable, but can make you irritated at yourself. We got our instructions from Ly&Pigs on the guinea pig cages forum. To see how to make these, click here

Guinea Pig Enrichment

Recently, Rocky and Honey have been trying to distract themselves with many things in their cage. We have:

1. A shoebox with fabric on top that they can jump on, or go in (we didn't make that an option in ours)

2. Paper Bag with the bottom cut off (or left on) can act as a tunnel and something to chew on.

3. A shoe box with fleece in it

4. A fleece forest which can provide LOTS of entertainment

More enrichment in the future!
