Keeping Warm How to Keep My Piggy Warm?

[HannahandChico]

Where I live, it's really cold right now. And the room where I keep my piggy gets really cold, too. I was wondering how I could keep him warm. Yesterday I put a fleece blanket on top of the cage, but I'm not sure it worked. I'm really worried about him getting sick! Any ideas?

You could make fleece hidey huts or snuggle sacks

Ditto to the above comments, and what kind of bedding do you have? if you have fleece, you could put a heating pad like for necks on low or a sock filled with uncooked rice and heated in the microwave under the fleece in a spot where they like to be.

We use a space heater set to low in the area our cage is set up in. I keep a thermometer near the cage to monitor the room temp. We use fleece bedding and that helps too but she really prefers to just burrow in mounds of hay.
