Guineapig Catching Methods?

[GuineapigLORD]

Crumbs,angel,Winnie.


Those are the names of the three greatest escapists in history of my guineapigs


Throwing boxes over there heads,literally just running up and grabbing them,luring them toward me with food,opening runs when no ones in them,


Those are the things I have tried


Nothing



That's what works

It's important that I catch:


Angel

Because she is pregnant


Crumbs

Because there's a cat that stalks her and it's huge



Winnie

Because shese my fluffy little monster and even though shese a baby she chases other babies and scared a rat out the run she is big enough for the owl family to get

Also any ways of getting cats away will help too.and don't say stuff like make the run better they backflip out the run,they jump onto logs of wood and literally climb up the wire these sows are rebel

Sounds like you have your hands full!

I often use a tube to pick up my pigs, or I fill their pet carrier full of hay and remove everything else from their cage- who can resist a house full of hay! One of my girls jumps in quite happily, the other takes a little more convincing!

Is the run outdoors? Perhaps you could use chicken mesh around the run to stop unwanted intruders entering the run- rats can fit in surprisingly small spaces so its important that it is secure! Do you have a roof on your run to keep the cats away? Also provide hiding places within the run as if your pigs see a predator they may be spooked so will need somewhere they feel hidden and secure!
