Recently we lost dear Kanga, leaving Fifi on her own.
I have been very fortunate and have been given two lovely older sows, sisters, they are 4. Fifi is 3. I've had them in adjacent cages for a few days and they have started to chat through the bars, so now I am thinking it might be time to try them together. I'm aiming to set up a bonding area in my bathroom (easy clean floor, and I can shut the cats out). It is not an enormous bathroom but my plan is to block anywhere that a piggy might get stuck, and make a pen so that we can still open the door without them making a run for it. I will remove all things from the floor, and put down some old towels so they aren't slipping about on the floor.
But how big should I have it? If I can set it up how I want it, it would be about a metre square - is this roomy enough?
