Ok so as some of you know I took in a Bunny not too long ago (I've been so concerned with making him better and getting to eat that posting here has been pushed to the back of my list) and I moved home only a week before so now I have a problem...
My flat has two rooms, a bedroom and a living room come kitchen.
My piggies live in my bedroom in a 4 or 5ft cage and my bunny lives in the kitchen in a 4ft cage.
My piggies fit comfortably in their cage and are quite happy there even without floor time...my bunny is between 1 and 2ft himself and so is in an insanely small cage
The house is new so my piggies aren't used to it so cannot run around unsupervised.
The bunny isn't yet housetrained so needs to be fully supervised.
For these reasons I have let the bunny run freely around the house whilst the guinaes sit content in their cage playing with each other and eating, they don't seem to want the floor time, but I feel bad for keeping them in there so much. I know their cage is still on the small side, but not as much as the bunnies and with only just having moved I've not got the spare cash to get big cages. And my bunny kicks out when he runs so the piggies even though they love my bunny are not allowed to go out and play (I've sat there with the bars open and everyone has been fussing everyone else it is so cute) so my piggies aren't being left alone and they're not unhappy indeed I'm getting piggy song every week. So my main train of thought now is whether I should leave my piggies for a bit longer until Charm is housetrained and I know he's not going to chew his way into the oven or something daft
Or whether I should ask to borrow my sisters run to let them have floor time until Charm is trained. (My sister lives like an hour away minimum and I rely on public transport and I don't know if it's even possable to get a run from her so I don't want to ask unless I have to but I don't want my piggies to get depressed or anything)
