Hi, hope everyone is well on the build up to the holidays. Our tree went up today, and unfortunately we had to evict Pippin and Poppy! The area where their food/water/litter tray is during floor time is where the tree goes, so we had a shuffle around and they are now in the diagonally opposite corner of their floor time pen. We've blocked off the tree as well. Suffice to say when they went on floor time this afternoon they were v. confused but seem to have accepted that their stuff has moved. The tree got some angry looks from Pippin though as she inspected the fence for guinea pig sized holes!

I'v also noticed that when Pippin eats she picks up a pellet, drops it in her water bowl, leaves it a few seconds and then goes fishing for it. She does seem to prefer mushy pellets! What a weird piggy.

Have any of yours got odd habits that they've taught themselves?
 
Pippin sounds pesky :)) They'll be thinking the tree is edible surely something that green has to be a vegetable! Pitch used to pick up and drop pellets too, you just reminded me..

Sarsaparilla puts virtually the whole spout of the water bottle in her mouth to drink - nutter :)
 
She's the biggest trouble maker of the two, and isn't opposed to nipping if you upset her! Poppy spills them everywhere until she finds one she likes the taste of, it's not like they're all the same or anything.

Awww!

Odd habits... Maple smacks me with her front paws she never did it when I first got her but now whenever I take her out for a cuddle she smacks me... :doh:
 
One of mine chucks herself at the wall of the cage,(plastic coated grids) and looks like kilroy .All you can see is her front paws and her nose at the top of the cage
