Makeshift Tent

Guinea pig Poof's makeshift fleece tent

Like other prey animals, guinea pigs appreciate being given places to hide. Poof made good use of this makeshift tent by camping out behind the flap, eyeing other pigs as they approached her hiding spot. You could see her projecting, "Back off, this is alpha pig territory!"

Jazz up your cage with a cabana or two - it's as easy as draping an extra bit of fleece or other cloth over a corner and binder clipping it into place. Allow the sides to hang down for added pig privacy.

We can't see you at all, Poof!

    I need to do that. My pigs are always squabbling over the hidey hut. They both want it for themselves! The loser gets the pigloo...

  2. I love that - if you can't see their nose, you can't see them.
