...only control the diet. The best way to flush the system is by keeping them well hydrated, encouraging lots of drinking and feeding fresh vegetables. Dried items will have all nutrients concentrated so aren’t the best option in all cases - dried leaves are absolutely fine for example but...

What a wonderful tribute to a very characterful, quirky lady! Bella is testament to what an enormous difference it can make finding/creating/offering the right environment for piggies with social issues. She has paid you for your special effort by living to such a great old age without losing...

Hello, I came to update you, Puffy is still here and he got better. Sometimes he still gets soft poop but then I give him 2-3 days free from vegetables. He loves hay again and is gainining his weight back :) His original weight is around 1kg, he got as low as 803g in September but now he’s 859g 😊

...(first Pic) The vet advised me to remove the vegetable for 2 or 3 days and indeed the situation has improved. This morning I gave some vegetables and tonight I found very soft faces (second Pic)🥺 so I removed the vegetables again.... Otherwise she is fine, eating, playing, but what can it...

Oh wow very interesting! I literally read another ladies post on Facebook who said she has to do the same thing, stop all veggies as it just upset her piggies tummy so much. Maybe something I should try 🤔

...digestive system, and even something like Metacam could cause prolonged diarrhoea in him. He was also extremely sensitive to certain vegetables, which could trigger digestive problems as well. I don't know why your guinea pig is on all of these medications, but it is quite an extensive list...

...for your quick reply. Nothing has been found without sedation. Our friend would be competent to syringe feed, however she won’t have easy access to a vet. We’re away for a week. We see her eating hay and she gobbles up vegetables and eats pellets. Could this weight loss perhaps be due to stress?

...in many websites around the planet 😂 I have found an interesting way to feed the piggies In Germany most of the owners feed ad libitum "vegetables" focusing on 80% of greenslike: Grasses and meadows Bitter salads : escarole, radicchio,etc Cabagges: kale, green cabbage, Chinese cabbage, etc...

...1 large romaine leaf, and 4 slices bell pepper each now per day, and have been at that amount for about 4 days. I do keep all their vegetables in the fridge, the cilantro I keep with the stems in a cup of water in the fridge to help it stay fresh. We did also switch them about a week ago from...

...along well. Mel and Cass have taken over from the late Lexi as chief wheekers every time a bag rustles. So far the hoomans have asked if we really want to eat pasta or frozen vegetables but the ladies were successful in getting us alternatives in the form of pellets and dry forage food :yahoo:

Okay, my mother and I will strictly follow your instructions. I have one more question. You mentioned earlier that this is also a type of hay. I would like to ask if Australian oat hay has a high sugar content. Given her current physical condition, is it okay to feed her large amounts of it...

Hopefully once he gets a cage mate he will learn that vegetables are good. He is making good progress and has a very trusting relationship with you.

Hi They look like normal oxidised pees to me. You may find the pictures in this guide link here helpful: Wiebke's Guide to Pees and Stones

...them in a safe space outside their normal home so that they do not get territorial. Remove everything, but you can put some hay around or vegetables. There will probably be some humping, but this is dominance behaviour as the male will be infertile once six weeks have passed since his...

So sorry for your loss. Your anxiety for Pebble is perfectly understandable. You do need to reduce his veggies until his poops return to normal. An upset tummy is the last thing you need. Guinea pigs will keep themselves hydrated with a normal vegetable diet and access to fresh water. He will...

...currently isn’t moving much, seems to be in a lot of pain and keeps his head away from the light. He doesnt show interest in eating fresh vegetables so I syringe-fed him some critical care. He also looks to be straining to poop and there’s an ammonia smell coming from him even though the...

I hope she’s soon on the mend 🤞🏻

Hello she is still eating hay and vegetables. They have prescribed this but it was my partner who took her and he doesn’t remember how much to give her. I’ve phoned them again today and the vet isn’t available so they said to follow instructions on packet which I’m posting because I find it...

...for about a week. Normally, I give him vitamin C supplements in the form of Oxbow's vitamin C grass cakes. When he's not sick, he eats vegetables, and I've been making sure he eats vegetables these past few days. However, my mother always thinks I'm not giving him enough, including now that...

BIG HUGS It sounds like his heart may have given out. Try to take comfort it has speeded up Theo's journey to the Rainbow Bridge and that he was no longer with it when he had the seizure. A natural death can happen like that. Pets and people are often a little brighter before the final fast...
