I'm going to have a rant ...............

I am really missing just popping out in the garden and talking to my girls, Paris, Disney and Ebony.

They are currently in the shed in a 6ft long hutch, so have plenty of room for a run around but I really miss the spring/summer with the girls out on the grass.

I do go down to the shed quite a few times during the day but long for the spring when they can popcorn round the garden :(|):(|):(|)

Anyone else feeling like this?
 
All mine are in the big purpose built shed, with radiator on, lights on, radio merseyside on, but I know what you mean. I love having the stable door open for them, so they can have lots of fresh air, and I can hear them chattering from the kitchen. My grass is a soggy mess at the moment too, so it will be a while before they are running around outside again. xx
 
Yes, I really miss giving them extra cuddles but now it is too cold to get them out of the warm. They also have to be shut in a at night early; in the summer they used to have a "late evening graze"!

It's going to be spring soon though.:)

Can't wait for the spring, I was chatting with the piggies this morning ....... telling them its not long now!
 
Were actually worried about attempting to adpot piggies in the winter :(

I feel sick inside with excitement but worry, are we doing the right thing in winter?

Have been to see piggies that have been dumped today and desperatly want to give them a home x)
 
I have mine indoors but I wish they were able to run around the garden like last summer. It's driving me mad!

Wow Claire that's a full living room! Sounds like mine!
 
I keep telling my babies it won't be long till they can be out on the grass. They're all lovely and warm in their shed, but I'm sure they're getting fed up with being stuck inside. I keep changing their toys round and adding more tunnels and things, but it's not the same as being able to eat the floor is it!

Can't wait to give them their first lot of fresh grass this year.

I got our piggies in February last year, its just after having our first summer with them, you realise what lovely little animals they are :(|)

You are so doing the right thing, especially as these little guys have had it rough :(
