Play Blanket Time

[socks]

There's always all these posts about people having lap time and floor time with their guinea pigs. Well, while my room is being redecorated and tack strips are exposed I can't put my guinea's on the floor to play, and there isn't any other room in the house for them either because of 3 cats and a 100lb chocolate lab.

So I lay on my bed, place them on my torso, and throw a blanket over them. Barney goes absolutely NUTS for it. He romps around, nibbles my shirt a little, and then curls up and takes a piggy nap on my stomach.

Mosby isn't so much a fan, he's more interested in being out in the open. But my bed is so high off the ground it's difficult to manage his busy body.

Yea I do the same thing it makes me nervous cause Gemini (being new) will all of a sudden decide to take off running. Gidgets good about staying on the bed but Gemini has climbed down in between the headboard and mattress before so I keep a cuddle sac so she will use it instead of climbing down. The bed is a full size in there room. I usually kneel next to the bed or lay on the bed and let them run around. Try using a big blanket they can tunnel in to keep them save on the bed. then you can be right there to watch them.
