Has anyone been to a pub called the golden ball in cambridge. Its a guinea pig pub. You can go there and have a drink and cuddle the pigs. I take it something to do with the cavvy cambridge trust? Not sure
 
I am from Cambridge and there is only one pub I know of called the golden ball. I have been to it on many occasions but never seen it have anything to do with piggies.

Sounds like an amazing idea! :D
It doesn’t look particularly easy to access via public transport :( The nearest train station I can see is Reading. Great idea though ;)

I’ve heard of it but never been to the maze. Beautiful area is Wistow :)
 
I hate to be a party pooper but much as I love to cuddle a piggy I do have concerns about piggies being used as entertainment in general. And more specifically being handled by strangers in an establishment selling alcohol. I have concerns for the welfare of the piggies & the message this is sending to the public at large. Piggies are not playthings.

I fully agree. I'm only going off what the 3 min video showed but it came across well. The pigs all looked very well looked after etc. Course this could all be a stunt to promote things . . I saw the vid and putt it on.
i would never support anything other than the care and well-being of animals 1st.
But have a look and let me know if I should be worried pls.
I tho it was just for fun. x
