Senior Pigs

[kimberly78]

So how many people here have a senior pig? Are you doing anything to help them with getting older, like changing things in the cage, etc?

My male will be 7 in August, his cage mate is almost 3 so shes still full of spunk. I have put some little beds I have made in the cage and my male thinks they are the best things in the world. He look so cute snuggling on them. I also had to adjust the watter bottle and toys height so he can reach them ok. He used to jump up to get treats which is doesnt do anymore I think he gets sore from time to time. Here is a pic of the 2. My male is the white abby named Q and my tricolor abby/prev mix is Daisy.

My Gobi's not the youngest anymore. The shelter lady said she assumed him to be "at least" three or four but she couldn't tell, so he may be older. I'm beginning to believe he's MUCH older since he has almost no sexual interest in the females anymore. He's a bit clumsy, doesn't like to climb and jumps only when Sydney chases him, so this was one of the reasons why I threw away my old cages and made one big area for everypiggy to run (or waddle) about without having to climb.

My oldest right now are three. I have two three year old females, along with a three month old, a six month old, and a one year old.
