Junior Guinea Pig
So I'm going away for the weekend for Christmas, and my vet's office will be boarding Ganon and Dibbler from Saturday until we pick them up Tuesday morning. I've never had my pigs stay away from home since we got them last January, and I'm very anxious about leaving them for a few days.
What experiences have you all had boarding your pigs at the vet? I'm worried about them getting depressed or anxious away from their home and not eating/drinking.
The receptionist said I should bring their food and toys. I planned on bringing fleece with their scent on it so it's not totally unfamiliar. Would it help my pigs to leave them with something with my scent on it?
How can I calm my nerves over leaving them somewhere unfamiliar to them for a few days? I love them very much and I'm worried of them feeling scared or abandoned by me.
Thank you in advance!
