| Traveling with the piggies Well, I haven't found a home for my two piggies yet and my move date is August 12th so...I am thinking that I will just take them with me. The only trouble is that it is a 30 hour drive from Texas to Washington. Any advice on traveling with them? I'll be driving with one passenger and my dog in her crate in the back of my car. I have an old aquarium that I bought when my first pig was a baby. I was thinking about putting them both in this with their house. It will be a little cramped but I thought they might like having their usual bedding and house instead of being in a travel carrier. Any suggestions? |

| You could always make them a small C&C cage to travel in. The aquarium WILL NOT have enough ventilation, especially in a hot car. What cage do you use for them regularly? Good luck on the move! =) |

| I agree. An aquarium would be dangerous. A small C&C cage would be good but make sure that it is shaded as the hot sun coming in the car for a long period of time could be deadly. Also MAKE SURE that you DO NOT leave your pigs in the car during daytime stops for food, bathroom etc. The temperature in the car can rise to fatal levels in just a few minutes if the weather is hot. In addition to a C&C travel cage (mine was 1x1 when I had one pig but now I have two so I plan to turn it into 1x2) you might want to get a travel bag that you can tote them into restaurants, etc with you so they don't overheat in an unattended car. |
