It was like the morning after the night before if you get what I am saying. We awoke to find a perfect little pig in the kitchen all cute and warm.......then it woke up!... We fed it breakfast and though ...yeah we can do another night with him in... until he pooed and weed like you wouldn't believe, everywhere, upset his water, ran the straw everywhere... It was at this precise moment I had a brain wave and it had to happen today.... He was going to live with the others...but in a very safe way, we were going to build a purpose made house with a little paddock so he will feel safe and secure but can talk and see to the others. Whizzed down to Baileys ordered the wood, they looked at me like I was mental...no change there then.....luckily for me they know I always need stuff immediately and usually are able to oblige...they are soo good to us like that....The wood arrived, Laura and I whacked the posts in and then Dad brought back the car he had borrowed....bet he wished he hadn't....cos he stayed for the rest of the day helping us...poor guy...he'll learn, phone first to make sure nothing is happening then come out here when we are out or asleep, that way you'll have an easy life!!!!Anyway we worked hard and us three built a house for Buzz and fenced in a paddock for him to be relocated to.....My kitchen will be clean once more!!!That's all the motivation I needed......we just made it before sun down....but Buzz loved it.

Buz is too gorgeous, he's gonna break your girls' hearts when he grows up!!!!
Having done the "piglet in my kitchen" thing, I must admit I was reading your posts with morbid fascination, just waiting........
Piglet wee is a lot smellier when it's indoors!!
I hope he's settled in outdoors!
Hi Jo.....Afraid not....He is in our office now, oh crikey!!! He is too small and was suffering with the temperatures plummeting to -8. To avoid a hypothermic piglet we cannot rehouse outside until we get above freezing. Watch this space.
In theory, you should be able to train him to go in a cat litter tray - that should massively reduce the smells!
I never tried it with Fergie and Bubble as we;d only just persuaded the cats to do their business outside and I didn't want to remind them about indoor plumbing!
