Setting up home

We're hoping that our new baby piggies will be able to come to us in a couple of weeks time, so we've been busy preparing their new home for them.

We've got a hutch, lots of newspaper, some dust-free woodshavings (although having done some reading on this, we will try to get some Megazorb to reduce the risk of any dust-related respiratory problems), some timothy grass hay, Gerty Guinea Pig food, a bowl, water bottle, a Chube (cardboard tube to play in!) and some VetBed lovely fleecy soft bedding to make their sleeping area extra snug when the weather is a bit colder. Is there anything else we need?!

The girls have had a trial run of putting it all in, along with two toy guinea pigs and it looked very cosy.

Sophie took some pictures:







Now, all we need are some little friends to bring some life into the hutch!
