Hi all,
I have my little piggy, Helmut, since late October. He just turned 6 months old. Everything is great with him. He lets me put the hand in the cage to clean it, feed him, pet him, no worries there. The only issue comes when I need to take him out of the cage, either to give him floor time, to clean the cage or to just pet him. He just keeps on hiding and running away. I manage by tricking him into going to his tunnel or fleece and taking them out with him in it, otherwise it is really a race... Is there something I should do better? I talk to him when I come to take him, he's fine even with my hand in the cage until he sees I aim to pick him. Is it just his personality? Or can I do something?
Thanks
