Did Piglet REALLY need to move out of his home?

All right, I understand the message of that part of the plot--Piglet giving Owl his beech tree to live in--giving up something that means a lot to do a noble deed for a friend in need--but did our timid little hero really need to move out and live with the Silly Old Bear?
Come on, there's no way that Owl could ever fit in the part of the tree where Piglet lived anyway, so why couldn't Piglet just continue to reside there and Owl have a house built for him up in the branches?

I thought that was weird too. As great as that deed is, it would have been great if they had allowed Piglet to eventually, in a later story, live on his own again.

It was in the book, but oh well, it's probably something that doesn't need to be thought through deeply.
