Play Is it OK for a guinea pig to jump up on a bent grid tunnel?

guineapigcraz27 · Dec 25, 2014

My piggy Maple has always had a habit of jumping up on her hideys. I recently made a couple of those bent grids with fleece binder clipped to the top of them tunnels for Christmas and the pigs love them but Maple keeps on jumping on them. Im afraid then she might snag her leg on the binder clip when she jumps off or that her weight might not be supported by the fleece and grid below it and her legs will fall through into the grid holes. Should I be concerned about any of this?

Spy doc that is so cool! I would have never thought to use a book cover. I am so making a tunnel for my piggies

Cover them properly and you won't have to be concerned. Go to WalMart to the school supplies section and buy the stretchy jumbo book covers. Note I said "jumbo" which will fit up to a 15" book. You can vary the colors to suit your current decorating scheme.

Thanks! I think we have some in our school supplies cabinet so I will be sure to put them on.
