[Gpdd] Misc: Re: Cage mate (size of cage, etc.)

[Leah McNeil]

Melissa & Lemi,
I agree with Maren in that piggies
can get Cranky if they don't have
enough 'personal space'. When I was
trying to bond Brownie Bear &
Butterscotch, it was tough because
I had them in 2 different C&C cages
(a 4x2 and a 3x2). Those Pigs were
Literally taking over our apartment!
ha ha

Well, once they were bonded I had
them in a 4x2 cage (I bought a new
one that was a different color). And
I keep it open for free range (our
apartment is piggie-proof). And
although my babies get along fairly
well, they still bicker. Personally,
I think that a 4x2 cage would be
better for 2 piggies, but I understand
that that may not be an option for you.

I have to admit I like having 2 pigs
cuz I don't feel the Guilt that I used
to feel when leaving the Bear home alone.
But! for the record, I don't see anything
wrong with having a solo-pig as long as
he/she is getting enough attention and
is Happy. I've always had solo-pigs, but
Brownie Bear is the first one who was
bothered by being alone.

Please let us know what you decide for
that Adorable, Little Lemiwinks!! :-)

     Love 'n Wheeeeeeeeps,
       Leah...Slave to BB & BS :-)
