    New home for guinea's

    Thankyou! I'm definitely swaying more towards getting a wipe clean table cloth, seems more manageable to clean!

    Guinea Pig Cage Recommendations?

    :wel: When it comes to a cage, you need to go as big as you possibly can. A Midwest cage comes in at 120x60cm (covering 8 square feet) which is the smallest cage for two sows or a neutered boar/sow pair. A Midwest cage is too small for two boars. We would always recommend going up a size...

    Guinea Pig Cage Recommendations?

    Ok thank you! I have checked the website of the rescue and they don't have a specified minimum cage size for any of their small animals however, when I applied to adopt the pigs I had mentioned the kaytee cage and they got back to me. I did email them just in case. I also realized I forgot to...

    Ordered new cage liners!

    I have quite a few mainly because I had a ferrplast cage before c and c. So combine them both if that makes sense.

    New home! Am I missing anything?

    Actually I have no idea. I wash them every 4 days myself, as per instructions (30 degrees + spin at 1200rpm), then I leave them out while I clean the rest of the house - they usually stay there for a few hours while piggies enjoy their floor time. Wish I could be more helpful, ugh!

    Guinea pig just not happy!

    Hello everyone, I’m a bit worried about my guinea pig, she just isn’t herself. She is an indoor piggie and lately makes a cave for herself out of her fleece liners and just hides herself away. I would say she is maybe looking a bit thinner and she has puffed all her fur out. She will eat if...

    Guineadad fleece seem so bad only after 2 days.

    Fleece liners need changing somewhere between every 3 and 7 days - it depends on many factors as to how long it’ll go between changes. You’ve got boars who will scent mark more which will smell more, also your cage isn’t really big enough for two boars so thar can also make it smell more...

    One fleece liner

    An issue here is that piggies that live outside in winter should not really be brought inside as it exposes them to too much of a temperature change back and forth which can make them poorly. If you are going to need to do this, then you should make sure the room they are coming into is not...

    Leaky bedding?

    Thank you so much! I will test it out, it is very odd as I don’t think the wetness smells like guinea pee. It’s odd because this liner is smaller than my other liners I use for the main part of their cage. The liner is also covered with 2 or 3 pee pads. I will let you know how it works out :)

    sick baby piggy :(

    I've read that pine shavings can be very irritating to piggy lungs (and also my allergies - I used them for about 3 days after adopting my boys). Fleece bedding is much easier to keep clean, and there are lots of youtube videos on how to make cage liners yourself. (I started with just a thick...
