    Can I give my guinea pig a PVC pipe tunnel?

    Hello and welcome to the forum. I wouldn’t use a sock. You can try cutting a toilet roll cardboard tube down it’s length and then filling that with hay. They also like a paper bag filled with hay. A big pile of hay to play in, sleep in and eat. You can scatter feed their veg and nuggets so they...

    Is this normal for my guinea pig?

    Hi Your boy is exploring the new item in his cage as to whether it contains edible fibre or not, which is normal behaviour. You may want to wrap the bottle in a kitchen towel instead if your boy is actually eating holes in the sock. ;) Here are plenty of other really helpful tips on what you...

    Unexpected death

    ...it because of how it felt. I’ve owned piggies for many years, have had many of them fall ill in weird ways, but this one has really knocked my socks off because of how sudden and unexpected it was. Tilly only had 50g weight loss in a month (which is minimal really, they usually throw weight...

    Monthly Costs?

    ...and haycubes and hay cookies, £50 on piggy veg, for 8 or 9 pigs... Piggle assured me that was normal, has she conned me again? She wees on my socks if I don't do what she says...! The vet fund is definitely most important though, I always have £200 per piggy saved up ready in my piggy vet...

    My New Liner is Ready for Fun and Soiling!

    For those who are curious, it's just fleece sewn together, turned, and then finished with two rows of quilting, one near the edge and one towards the center. It does not have an absorptive layer in the middle; there are towels underneath. The cage set up is newsprint, folded towel (because I...

    How to Keep Your Guinea Pigs Safe and Cool - Hot Weather Warning for the UK

    Took a while to get aquainted but today Jezzy floof is on almost friendly terms with the frozen bottle sock monster! I usually have a fleecy tunnel instead of the sticks bridge hidey there but given the sleepy absent mindedness of my more 2 elderly ladies I'm not taking any chances! Blodwen...

    I need advice about my Guinea pig

    Thank you. At the moment I'm taking everyone's advice into consideration with Christmas so close I will keep the options open until after the holidays. Pets at home told me to try stuffing a sock with Hay or use a mirror so he can see himself but sadly I don't have a mirror but I'm trying the...

    How to Keep Your Guinea Pigs Safe and Cool - Hot Weather Warning for the UK

    Yes my piggies also avoid the frozen bottle in sock intruders, in fact today I really overdid the cooling and now the piggies are trying to keep warm! Always better to be safe though, especially if you are going out, you never know if the temperature will suddenly spike in the afternoon! Here is...

    Guinea pig advice after a viral infection

    I’ve put him up right laying in a box with socks either side. As soon as I did that he’s been eating hay and mint. I’m really hoping that he gets better, I’m going to give it a bit more time to see if he gains strength in his body as he’s trying to move. I just really don’t understand how this...

    Member Gallery: Sheds

    ...has gone unanswered. When I had piggies living in a shed, we provided them with a battery operated fan and frozen water bottles wrapped in old socks (still do now they're indoors) during the warmer weather as the shed didn't have electric. But it is hard to keep sheds and hutches cool in the...

    Buckets is missing patches of hair

    If you do take him out you could always put a large frozen water bottle in his carrier covered with a sock or a towel. This will give him something cool to lean against if needed, but shorter hair would definitely be the better solution in the long term

    Hot weather warning for the UK - Member questions and heatwave feedback

    Hope your piggies will be ok @eileen remember though its often cooler at piggy level if they are the floor than what the wall thermometer reads, and if they have ice pods they can use them if they need them. Ollie and Hatty's room was 26 degrees this morning by the thermometer on my desk despite...

    Pink was asleep with her head on the 'frozen water bottle in sock' until I moved in for a photo! Both piggies have appreciated their bottles today.
