Playing dead

[desnap]

I just had a fright. I was cleaning out the cage to see fudge lying upside down not moving. She was near a tunnel so I moved it a tiny bit and she stood up, looked at me and casually waddled off. I was suprised she didnt even run lol. Anyway is this normal?

Haha I adopted a piggy I named Willow and she was clearly elderly when we got her. Anyway she used to flop from day one at such bizarre angles. Literally her second day home I thought she had died already

I'll see if I can find a photo or two

This is the mischievous lady in the log tunnel

She might have been sleeping, my piggies usually give me a scare when they sleep in the middle of the cage lol.

@PigglePuggle's Blodwen used to play dead when they first got her.

She may have been sleeping. I find my pigs, as they got older, slept deeper than they did before. It made us pester them out of worry, because they were older by the time they would rally pass out cold, we were more worried that they might not be okay!
