    Hot bedroom

    Thanks yeah all rooms upstairs get so warm but downstairs is a no go cause of my cat so I think changing rooms now is less hassle. What ones do argos sell that are reasonable ? I'm menopausal so an air con unit is the dream but not for 600 😂

    Guinea pigs in conservatory.

    I have recently moved Saffron and Shimmer into the conservatory, from an insulated shed (with no electricity). They were not getting any sunlight and Shimmer had bubbly breathing. They now have some sunlight but there is no insulation in the conservatory (more of a lean to really, home made by...

    Hot bedroom

    I'm currently getting spare bedroom ready for guinea pigs we hope to adopt. The bedroom gets very warm in summer we struggled to keep my sons bedroom next door cool in summer as gets sun all day and evening so worrying will get too warm and door will have to be closed due to my cat. Considering...

    What’s your favourite thing about piggies?

    I have remembered when I was at my last house and had a designated guinea pig and rabbit room. I was bonding two rabbits so I slept in the room. The noise of the little creatures munching hay was just delightful. Really soothing and intimate somehow.

    Minnou’s piggies

    Heard a guinea pig performing mega-wheeks so I jumped up and ran from the living room to the kitchen to find Minerva stood screaming in front of the bin. I asked her what was wrong/what she wanted and she bumbled off, muttering the entire time, before sitting next to Gaia in the back room. I...

    Mom doesn't have room for another cage. She barely has enough room to sit down! She's going to stick with us. She's currently soaking her surgical site. Wound looks good. Polo and truffle are all you need! Mom also only wants two pigs.

    It is a heat wave and one of my Guinea pigs is snuffling.

    Ok, so cat carriers are much larger than the rosewood ones. The room I and the two piggie cages share is large but is packed with Guinea pig stuff (double as one of everything for each cage) mobility aids, craft supplies and DVDs ( modern tv is too noisy and flashy for my illness). You might...

    Skinny Theo

    Yes the presence of the girls will be having the effect - lots of girls coming into season frequently will cause disruption to boys who are not used to sow pheromones. (Although and as you mention they aren’t neutered - do note that even if they were neutered, the effect on them would still be...

    Shimmer and Saffron

    Some very good points there Truffolo. I will be having electricity connected to the shed. It will be insulated and will have a heater in the winter and a fan in the summer. The guinea pigs (Shimmer and new guinea pig once I have one) will come into my bedroom in the very hot and very cold...

    Advice on setting temperatures for winter

    I think shutting our old portable thermostat in the living room with the guinea pigs really helps us. We like having a cooler bedroom, unlike the piggies. 😂 (Mind you with costs rising. :yikes:)

    Do guinea pigs appreciate beauty in the world?

    Hi everyone, thank you for your replies. My dreams of adventure with Teilo Pig are crushed! I had visions of sunsets over the beach in the Lake District. Ah well, he can stay home with his brothers where he is most comfortable. I feel really sad they can't see or appreciate the world like we...

    Adding more piggies

    Thanks, when I first separated the boars after they lost their bond they were very angry and chewing the bars etc. Not sure if I want them to be riled up again sows in the room. My plan is to get the boys neutered but its expensive , in my area its £200+ per pig

    Formerly dominant pig is quiet & withdrawn

    Hi That is worrying but how hot has it been in your piggy room and could your #1 suffer from the after effects of heat stroke/exhaustion or an underlying health issue that has come to the fore because of the extra pressure on the body? Unfortunately, the symptoms are too vague to tell what...

    Fleece good or bad?

    Thank you to all who replied with their experiences of fleece and other bedding: it is very helpful to understand what works in what situation. Our idea was for an indoor cage on stand in our living room in our flat, so we will have it very much under our eyes and can probably do more strategic...

    Soft timothy hay from timothyhay.co.uk

    Thank you. i know :( unfortunately I dont have much room for another box of hay so I had to use it for bedding and feeding. Thank you again, as long as someone else is using it as their main feeding hay. I feel relieved :)

    Is 3 definitely a crowd?

    I'm afraid Ollie being in your room and Capelinni and feta being in your son’s room will not work and could cause Ollie to become depressed and lonely. While they cannot share a cage, It is absolutely vital that their cages are not only in the same room but that the two cages are side by side...
