She doesn’t look to be pure Abyssinian given she has longer hair. I have a long haired boy and I try to do a quick brush with him when I do the weekly weight checks but he doesn’t particularly like it. I trim his hair fairly regularly and ensure it is kept short around his back end (His...

Hello, Can anyone recommend some clippers good for grooming long haired piggies? Oreo tolerates clippers better than scissors for trimming her long hair and removing any matts that might form. She hates getting brushed. We’ve tried gently brushing her with a soft bristle brush since she was...

:wel: Well done for taking them in. I have a long haired piggy. He needs to be brushed frequently (I just use a soft baby hair brush) to stop matts forming. I keep his hair around his bottom and back legs cut short. The hair on his side is kept short enough that it doesn’t drag on the...

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hair-Remover-Dustpan-Rubber-Brush/dp/B072BPVXLC/ref=pd_lpo_1?pd_rd_i=B072BPVXLC&psc=1 Super useful... but don't leave the brush lying around as at least one will enjoy nibbling the rubber bristles! Don't worry so much about the poops - it's the wet patches that can...

I have the very long haired Tiggy, she needs a reasonable amount of grooming, I keep her bottom hair trimmed quite short, it's less likely to get matted & she can't wee on it then! :whistle: She's not a lover of brushing, but I find if I start at the ends holding her hair close to her body it...

Long haired Guineas need a lot of grooming to keep their fur in tip top condition. Have you been brushing her fur through?

:agr: I have a long haired boy and he needs to be brushed regularly (he isn’t keen on it!). I also cut his hair particularly around the back end and on the sides to stop it from dragging on the ground

Awwww... they're super cute! Adorable! There's no particular reason to give youngish pigs alfalfa pellets. It's sometimes recommended as it is calorically denser, but it's something that should definitely be stopped after the first few months because the calcium content is high enough to...

Is there a guinea pig under there? :)) :love:

Oh my gosh she is so cute 😍😍 What a difference in her appearance from the before and after shots!

Hi, your new piggy sounds lovely! I once owned a Abyssinian and I wasn't expecting him to grow such long hair and eventually this developed into a knot problem. As I was not aware of his breed at the time when I purchased him. I could not get the knots out so how I dealt with the issue is simply...

I brush my long haired pig Pepper twice a week, trim his bottom area once every 2 months. He hasn’t needed a bath in ages he had about 2 in his first year of life when he wasn’t as good at keeping clean. I’m the summer I shave him shorter so he isn’t too hot 😊 Peppers fur isn’t quiet as wild...

I've been on the forum for quite a while but rarely post, preferring to enjoy everyone else's stories and pictures. However, I've been struggling with my latest herd bereavements and have found it difficult to enjoy my remaining piggies. I've made this thread as a way to try to mindfully spend...

Mine get changed at every clean so last about 3-4 days. My tunnels and cuddle cups are made of polyester fleece with cotton outer layer on some and dry very fast. The worst thing I find is brushing off all the hair particularly Posh’s as it’s quite fine and long

My Betsy has long hair and she often has a mat at the back. I just cut it off. She hates being brushed WITH A PASSION so I generally don't do it now. It doesn't help that she's as blind as a bat so doesn't understand what is happening to her.

Shedding is normal. I can’t say how much is too much when they have ringworm as I’ve no experience with it. Did you manage to get them to the vet for treatment? I’m sorry I can’t remember 😬 You could brush the fleece to remove most of the hair. There’s a brush that was mentioned on here long...

So long story short one of my boy guinea pigs was making a moaning noise when scatchinv his back and he would do it a lot. He pulled a little bit of hair out there too. He hated me touching anywhere near it even tho his the most loveliest guinea pig he loves affection normally, he would go for...
