Jesse's pigs
Adult Guinea Pig
Hi guys (I realise haven't been on here in ages! How are you all? I'm sorry for being so unactive- the website looks so different now.)
Anyway, due to the heat I put an ice pack in the boys cage as I always do. And as I always do, I wrapped it up in something (in this case an old towel.) I usually wrap it in a t-towel but it's also been wrapped in a flannel etc before.
I returned home today to find the towel in a rather bedraggled state with all strands hanging off. I believe the main culprit is Steve whom actually had the towel in his mouth when I saw it.
I've checked both of their mouths to check hey don't have any material stuck and both are acting normal. I know that piggies usually are fine after eating things they shouldn't- like plastic bags grrrrrrr
But should I be overly worried with this? I feel so stupid and yet they've never done this before. Let's just say they won't be having it wrapped in a towel again!!
