What do your piggies like playing with?

As the title really - what do your piggies like playing with? Ours have wicker balls, we hide food in scrunched up paper bags, they have tunnels and a pigloo- are there any other good things yours like?

We used to have one of the treat balls they have to move around to get the food out, and I would stuff toilet roll tubes with grass or hay for them but they weren’t interested in many other things! Paper bags were a big hit with mine too Smile sounds like your piggies are getting plenty of enrichment!

The treat ball is a good idea! They are very spoilt piggies - I just want to keep the interested until it’s warm enough for them to go outside. I love watching them with a paper bag, they can get quite ferocious!

Ours don’t really play with anything - we have 5 in a huge indoor c and c cage. They just poop, sleep and wheek whenever they hear the fridge open!! (They’re in the kitchen / diner).

Mine like to play Let's Destroy The Cage Hmm by ripping up the puppy pads under their fleece, burrowing under the fleece and hiding eleventy billion poos where I can't find them, flicking their pea flakes through the bars onto the floor and many other fun games! Grin

Ours are not the most playful for sure, but they def enjoy things they can grind their teeth against and/or eat, so cardboard boxes, tubes, wooden balls etc are great, or things to hide under, so houses, wicker huts etc! Bonus points if it's both edible and chompable!

Ah I just saw this in active, I miss my lovely piggy boys. They used to love anything random stuffed with jay - paper bags, cardboard boxes etc anything cardboard or paper we had we would give to them and stuff with hay. They also had a ball with a bell in it that they would push around the cage, and a wooden ball with holes that you can chop veg and stick it through the holes so they have to work to get them out.
