So what did we all do to keep our piggies amused today if we weren't able to let them outside for a run about?

Ours are indoor piggies but usually get a good number of hours outside each day but they are still young and I don't dare to let them go on the grass or floor outside if it is damp in case they get a chill.

They also usually get a little indoor floor time in the evenings. Today they have had some indoor floor time in the morning too but I'm not good on coming up with original entertainment for them. Good job they love a paper bag filled with hay!
 
My piggies just had a lazy day today, i've done a bit of evening training with my fatty pig this evening though as he is in need of some weight loss as he's a big boy, so i've been teaching him tricks to get him moving and working for food. But i don't spend long doing it as he soon looses interest haha, especially when i'm trying to use healthier treats and bits of yummy hay rather than unhealthy snacks.
 
my piggies have had a lazy day but its been nice in swansea - fed them - let them out for laptime, read to them this morning and bought them some new toys ha (a tunnel) and treat, so they seem to be happy :) plus little alfie has been popcorning to the up most tonight and running about which has been quite funny :) they watched me construct a unit (flat pack) and sure they were laughing a me in the process haha x

lazy pigs indeed :)
 
Here are more tried and tested ideas for piggies: http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/threads/guinea-pig-toys.43520/

Ha hay filled cardboard box with just a few small air holes in at piggy head hight has given my crew about 6 months of entertainment from making a hole big enough to squeeze in until they had eaten all the sides down! ;)
 
The weather was appalling today so they all got paperbags stuffed with hay :)
 
My box was actually Mali's one way travel box in which she came all the way from West Yorkshire, so it had a very interesting scent for the other piggies...

I will post some picture tomorrow; it's bit late for me to dig them out now.
 
@Weibke That was utter brilliance...I am absolutely wetting myself at the sequence of events! How can anyone not like guinea pigs, if they knew what pigsonalities they have!
 
On rainy days i let my guinea pig run around the dining room its a good space and we don't ever use it, its like an animal room.
