Sorry, only just seen this...

She is, I think. I have to keep reminding myself that she’s a puppy and puppies are a nightmare til they’re trained, but at least a kind of truce is in place now with her and Mimi... I caught them in the sofa together today, nesting on a furry blanket! It’s quite a breakthrough :lol:

Mimi does not look delighted about it.

Teddy's legs are ridiculous. I love Mango's paw of possession on the radiator.

How many pigs can you fit in a tiny house?

This many!

(I have now given them an extra cardboard box.)

I can almost see their all noses twitching. A huddle of pigs.

The children did some science and worked out that the house fits three pigs on the floor with one standing on their backs, or potentially two pigs with all four feet on the ground and two with their front paws on the others' backs :teacher: When we saw them it was always Otis standing on the girls (typical :ella: )

Today they have eschewed the house altogether in favour of their new box, but will soon have eaten too much of it to allow for effective hiding :))

Queenie thinks it is her house, and sometimes manages to guard it. This is how she looks at anyone trying to get in wearing trainers.

I am glad. They are so funny and I love them so much. We have moved them indoors as it got so cold (I spent ££ on a thermal hutch cover and then ££££ on an indoor cage big enough for four :lg: ) and I do love being able to pop into the playroom and watch them. Queenie, despite being traditionally built, can jump from the ground floor to the mezzanine. They all hate the ramp for climbing and instead use it for exercise by going underneath it, nose-butting it into the air and trying to run through before it comes down and hits them on the bum :lol: (It is lightweight coroplast; they won't hurt themselves.)

The pigs! :love2:

Bella has ignored this basket for month, but has suddenly decided this is where she's going to spend the rest of the winter. If she's not eating or playing, she's here, even though it's proving a bit tricky at times to keep an eye on everything.
