For the past 2.5 weeks, we (well mostly me coz hubby has arthritis and can only do so much) have been redecorating the living room. All the walls have been painted (we removed all the wall paper) and only 1/4 of the flooring needed to be done. We removed the carpet and replaced it with vinyl...

Hi everyone, no idea what I just went through. I have two guinea pigs that I previously posted about having ringworm. They have had it before-it fully developed enough for me to see that something was up about a month after I got them in November. So I have 2 midwestern cages put together for my...

Please put a waterproof layer between floor and the fleece liner (which consists of a fleece top and an absorbent underlay). A DIY plastic protection sheet (like for painting), a plastic shower curtain or even 3 rolls of Ikea cupboard liners will do. Give them a clean afterwards and keep them...

Hi! Which country are you in? What need is vet strength antifungal disinfectant and not just pet shop grade (or lower) anti-bacterial pads. They won't work. Talk to your vet about oral systemic anti-fungal medication like itrafungol (active ingredient itraconazole), ketaconazole etc...

If you are able to do this, I built my own cage. I have two male guinea pigs and their cage gives them just over 11 square feet of space and it has a second floor with even more space. It has a plexiglass front so I can see them and they love their cage. After taking this picture I painted the...

Thank you. My room isnt massive so I'm sure it wont take too long. I would just need to get a top for the cage as we have a cat. But don't worry everyone met eachother and I'm sure the wouldn't mind sharing the living room for a little while!

Hi, My 2 boars - Lenny and Aladdin - live in a 2x5 c&c cage with blue coroplast. However my room has just been redecorated to a white and teal colour scheme and the cage really does not match! I was wondering if it would be possible to paint the cage a teal hue to go with the rest of the room...

Hi, I'm a new member looking for some advice on building a new indoor wood cage for our piggies (just 2 bores). Currently they have a square metal cage (like an outdoor run) indoors, and the hay/sawdust gets all over the place. DIY and tools aren't a problem, and I have a load of Pallet Wood...

Thank you so much for the detailed advice. He’s on the cat/guinea pig metacam. I called the vets yesterday soon as they opened and asked for an appointment but she said they were fully booked. I asked if I could give more metacam as he’s limping and not trying to put weight on it. She said no...

Just keep the window open and shut the door. Itl soon dry, wack the heating up too, waste of energy bills but hey lol You can most probably buy fast drying paint

(I may move this over to my guinea pig guru section once people have read it (just to file it away). But thought i would post here. I had wanted to redo my guinea pig room for quite sometime. After moving into my home some 6 years prior the gang had been residing in a C&C cage, which had been...

Hi, We have 4 Guinea pigs a male and his 3 happy girls. This afternoon while they were feeding on some grass outside a cat attacked our poor male Cubi and he squeeked very loudly from paint. the cat let him go but he was very very frightened. We gathered all 4 of them and placed them in their...

I ordered these on Etsy, they were just plain wood so I tried to paint them to look like each piggy

Can I use flux quick dry satinwood on the outside of their cage? I wouldn't be painting anywhere inside the cage so they won't be able to chew it at all. I bought a huge tin of it and painted my children's bunk bed with it and it didn't smell at all. If I can't what is best to use? I've...

With the help of my father in law I'm in the process of building a new cage for my guinea pigs! and here is how its coming out. Its two floors, the stairs can be pulled up so i can divide the cage in to two cages. We are adding plexiglass to the front of the cage. We are keeping this cage in...

Today Gibbs and Sam we're having floor time in a caged off area and he jumped out of it while I while I was wrapping presents and I took out purple paint because I was planning to paint snow flakes on the presents Gibbs walked right through the paint and on to a present and now I have some...

Hi everyone, My first post on here wasn't a happy one as some of you know. Following on from the loss of our little brown piggy our other little pig needs a new companion. Bertie is going to choose a new friend this weekend and to help the bonding process when the two pigs come back (unless...

Thank you! Yes absolutely more fun, I’ve always had house piggies before and we’ve had the best bonds but had a hard time convincing OH to let them in - it’s been seven or 8 years since our two old boys passed. Just having them in overnight last night reminded him how much he loved our last pair...

Hi, I have a piggie called Sparkles and she's aprox. 5 years and 8 months old. Just before christmas, I noticed she was making some strange vocalisations and wheezing noises, but she seemed otherwise healthy. There wasn't any discharge from her eyes, mouth or nose, and she was eating well...
