:wave: Im picking my 4 up tomorrow

cant wait, They have been for a group bonding session and cheryl says its been successful - they were all huddled together when she went to feed them today

Im not looking forward to the sleep depravation again though - I have slept really well while theyve been away!! :lol: I think cos usually I have one ear open for them all the time...

Good behaviour coming home / stay bonded vibes pleeeease...

Any tips for when I get my group home?? is there likely to be chasing again etc?

edited - Ive done the pen 4.5 x 3.5 ft is that ok for them to come back to?

Have you got a room or garage where none of them normally go? Might be an idea to keep them somewhere like that for a week or so just until they have settled completly. They are all getting on so much better now than they were the other day. They are all comfortable eating around each other and when I went in to give them their veg earlier they all lined up next to each other with their paws up on the door to the enclosure :lol:

awwwwww

I have set up a pen in the front room - they are usually all upstairs so not somewhere any of them have been for a while - sooty and oreo used to live there about 6 months ago though :? (not in the same pen).
But I dont have anywhere else totally neutral.
How do you feed them - do you just scatter food about? or use a bowl?

kaths101 · May 2, 2010

Also what size pen is ok to start with???

I have done it 4.5 ft x 3.5ft is that ok for 4??

That should be fine. As for the food I just scatter it about so they have to root around to find it. It keeps them busy
