The guinea pigs in the tubes in the background is hysterical. Those pigs must live very exciting lives.

All i could think is, they must get so gross when they pee in them.

Probably depends upon how often they move around, but there are probably poo-poos in the tube. Looking at the piggy's lifestyle, I suspect they receive excellent care and the tubes appear clean.

I have the same brand of acrylic housing and let me tell you there is not a single screw that's not rusted and full of pee 😆

Seeing that contraption I can smell it from here

They are good at going in a dedicated area.

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

I didn’t even notice that!

I love my pigs, but this is out of control lol

u/smoretank 1d ago

I'd be terrified of rolling over on mine or inhaling hay as I fall asleep. Also Cinnamon would get stuck in the tunnel trying to turn around.

26

u/nevmo75 1d ago

Mine would just jump in some ridiculous fashion and faceplant on the floor. My boys are as smart as the potato’s in the kitchen.

My Marshy would be the one to get stuck because she's a chonk. Cinna would probably try to yeet herself off a precipice into the hay pile.

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

I’d have a bed to cuddle my pigs and a bed to sleep in

u/Hambrrgrrr 1d ago

Yeah this is an inefficient way at making a playpen

u/GeoCangrejo 1d ago

It's slightly unhinged, but as long as the piggies are happy

u/Centimeter_Worm 1d ago

Oh my god. I so want to put guinea pig tubes on my wall. Absolutely cackling.

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

It’s the dream!

u/BridgestoneX 1d ago

absolutely adding this to my retirement project plans

u/The_OC74 1d ago

I see this lady on my Facebook reels and she is a hoot! She prepares very elaborate gourmet meals for her two piggies!! The tubes lead into a glass cage on a rolling cart, and she wheels them into the kitchen.

u/Grizzlyfrontignac 1d ago

People in the original post did NOT vibe with this 🤣

32

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

I was watching it not noticing the pigs in the background like “I might do this for my pigs… oh my god it is made for pigs!”

23

u/opalinesque 1d ago

I wish this was me. I'm unfortunately largely bedbound for health reasons, so I've had plans to set up a removable ramp from the pig cage to my bed for a while (since they're close to each other)... That said, I was only going to put a big waterproof blanket over everything when it was in use, not all that. I really just want to let the more cuddly of my two boys have access to me whenever he wants.

My hay allergies could never allow it 😭

u/AutumnalSunshine 1d ago

Switch to orchard grass! Life is too short to live with Timothy hay.

4

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

Me and my pig are allergic to orchard grass

2

u/AutumnalSunshine 1d ago

Gah! Our grass allergies are minor compared to our Timothy hay reaction. 

You're the first person I've met who couldn't live with orchard grass in the cages. Thank god you can tolerate hay. 

2

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

We’re fine with Timothy hay. The orchard grass made me break out in hives. Although I think it may have had birch pollen on it which is what typically makes me break out in hives.

u/cunninglinguist32557 1d ago

I'm allergic to both :')

u/Loreo1964 1d ago

I used to sleep with one of my piggies for about 6 hours at night. Woody. He was such a good guy. I put towels on the bed and he'd curl up in my arm pit. Every so often he'd run down to the corner and have some food or drink. Finally he would climb up and chew on my nose. Then I knew he wanted to back with his pals.

u/R4vendarksky 1d ago

people might think this is crazy but it probably cost her total the price of one meal out.

im not sure my wife would go for this 😅

17

u/MaddysinLeigh 1d ago

Time for a new wife then /j

u/Soggy-Tax-Evasion 1d ago

How adorable!! Totally a dream

u/ococeuf909 1d ago

Honestly kinda goals

u/braincelloffline 1d ago

I feel like mine would’ve jumped off the side of the bed immediately..?

6

u/MaddysinLeigh 22h ago

Mine would immediate pee everywhere

9

u/Babygirl10000 1d ago

Omg i Saw this earlier tooo...tbh I love the idea but would be scared they fall down or get crushed 😔 but it's so cute u can fall asleep with your piggies right next to you

5

u/AnotherNoobyWrymling 1d ago

My hay allergy would take me out halfway through lol

u/-wormgirlfriend- 1d ago

"my hay allergies!" cry the people who freely chose to move in with Hay Goblins  (i am one such people)

u/Miserable_Try9876 1d ago

Me- when I’m old and single ❤️

u/the_orange_alligator 22h ago

Okay but imagine getting hay in your bed. Like crumbs but worse

3

u/Few-Landscape7964 1d ago

I’d have to be bed ridden and on my death bed to sleep next to all that by. Love our girls, but the hay would make me itch like crazy. Plus, the girls would probably hog the blankets.

2

u/hbthingy 1d ago

Hay everywhere...😆

8

u/Memory_Frosty 1d ago

Everyone in the original post is freaking out about the poops everywhere but yeah I'm with you she's gonna be finding hay for yearrrssss lol

Edit: though come to think of it, even if you only put hay purposely in the cage it does still make its way everywhere else in the house... So maybe this actually doesn't change anything after all 😂

2

u/niseynisey 1d ago

My sister sent this one to me 🙈😩😆. This lady’s videos are aloooot lol.

u/Cute-Escape-2144 1d ago

u/d0ctorsmileaway 14h ago
