I'm looking for some advice if someone would be kind enough- currently babysitting two lovely pigs who I have in the kitchen (playpen during the day, "normal" size cage at night)
I took in an emergency foster dog today and, not to put too fine a point on it, he wants to eat the guineas soooo bad.
I have nowhere else in the house to keep them and was wondering if I could possibly put them in my garage for the last few days I have them? It's block-built, clear plastic skylights so same light as being outdoors, it is totally sealed but no heating at all. The forecast for the next few days looks alright. Or I was thinking maybe have their playpen out there for during the day and bring them back in at night and just lock the kitchen door. I'm well aware it's unfair on them (they are indoor pigs) but I'm also worried the dog will give them a heart attack (or much worse)
He was an emergency foster case so I didn't want to turn him down.
So has anyone any thoughts or advice? Will they be ok (temperature wise) in the garage or should I just leave them full-time in the kitchen and pray nothing happens?
Many thanks for any input!
