We just built our lil man a cage. He seems very happy. He's been squeaking and pop Corning all over the place. Hopefully everything we did is safe :) I attached a picture. Hopefully it attached correctly. Pls let me know what you all think :)

The fleece is really cute, and so is your piggie! The only thing I'm worried about is that your grids only have 8 spaces, it should have 9 so he doesn't get his head stuck. I don't mean to be picky, I just don't want Mr. Nibbles to get hurt. It looks like the sides are high enough though, but just in case. :) Your piggie looks like a little Rolo, too cute!

Thanks all :) My husband actually picked the fleece out. He was excited about it lol.

Yes we are getting him a little friend :) there is a rescue down the street from out place and they are giving him a free check up tomorrow and we are going to adopt one from there. im excited.

Yea Kelsie i love seeing and hearing him so excited. Makes me feel like a good parent lol. He is only 6 weeks old. Hes a baby. We kinda messed up and got him at a pet store. We went there to get a few dog toys and i saw the lil piggies and fell in love with him. They let me hold him and within minutes he was nibbling..hence his name haha...and licking my finger. I could resist getting him. After doing my research i found a rescue about a mile away so his friend will be coming from there :)

If you have extra grids you could overlap them to make the openings smaller. Great looking cage and your piggie is just too cute!

It looks adorable! Well done :) and you must post pictures when you get the new piggy.

Don't want to sound critical, but what kind of food are you feeding your little guy? I just noticed in your picture that the food has some colored bits. Usually these additives are not necessary and can actually lead to picky eating. Oxbow and KMS pellets are two very good brands of piggy food!

I will def post pics when we get the new lil one :)

The food brand is called Sunburst. If you say its not good I will make sure I get the good stuff today. You don't sound critical. I welcome the tips. Its our first time so I have no clue what I'm doing lol
