Furbabies' Adventures

I was away for a few days and the piggies were pampered by a friend of mine. Great food, a lot of treats and about as much cage space as at home, just without floor time.
I must confess, I wasn't quite sure, if Odi wouldn't jump at the chance to move permanently (not that it would have been an option ;)), because he is extremly motivated by food.
But when I walk into my friend's appartement to pick them up, Odi was the first to greet me and I could even pick him up without him even trying to run away. Of course we had a little bit of nipping once his first welcome was over.
But it was really nice to be greeted this way. :D
 
At home the piggies have got a nice big cage, but when we stay at the garden, there isn't so much space available. To enlarge the cage I use there, I bought this great house with the balcony. I hope, they will use it.

Bonny didn't go upstairs on her own, but maybe with a little time they will get used to it.
 
Since it was the first time my piggies stayed away from home (apart from the garden where I was with them) for quite a long time or the first time ever, I was a bit worried how they would cope - especially Odi.
Well Odi coped fine. He does love being home again, but he kept his weight. Same as Bonny, even though Bonny is my most skittish piggy and scared of almost everything.

Vicky lost a bit of weight.
But Billie and Tessy showed the biggest weight loss - both of them had been to piggy sitters before the pandemic. :doh:
Tessy even developed a bit of a fungal spot. :(

Next week my toilet turns into a construction site, so the piggies will stay at my parent's for a few days. Not the best of timing, but can't be helped unfortunately. :(
I would have preferred to stress them a bit by taking them to the garden. They would prefer the grass time for sure, even if Tessy would hate it there as well. No place like home for my little sweety.

We had a really hot week last weeks, up to 35 degrees. Fortunately, it was cooler yesterday.
The piggies managed fine though they lost a bit of weight due to the stress of spending 2 days away from home and probably the heat as well.
