Hello, we are shortly to bring our Christmas tree in. This year we are having a real tree, and I was wondering if it was safe to be near the guinea pigs cage, if it is fenced off so they can't get to the branches? Will the smell be a problem to them, as I know they can be sensitive to strong...

I used a tin-pot pair of play scissors out of a Christmas cracker. You could bend them with your fingers. It was the only thing I felt confident enough to cut baby nails with... they worked a treat but wouldn't even cut paper! The fluffy one in the pic cries like a baby if you take her fuzzy...

With great sadness we have to report the loss of beautiful brave Clover, herd leader for over 4 years. Known in her prime as Big Pig, and Boss Lady, then in her older years affectionately called "Clovey wovey nosey wosey" by her daft human followers for her pretty pink twitchy nose that was...

Hello, The people on here are brilliant with advice. I really feel for you. You are going through exactly the same as I did with my boy snowflake. He battled with sterile IC cystitis for 5 months. He had loads of different pain relief, IC diet. Mineral water. I used to give him extra water by...

Will be a long one, but I'll be thankful to anyone, willing to dive and help us figure out what's going on. Accept any suggestions. Hello, last year, in the beginning of december I adopted two guinea pigs Dobi (black shorthair) and Doti (brownish longhair). Each turning 3 years old this month...

I got a guinea pig for an early Christmas present in 2020 and its been going good for a while! Today though, something happened. He was chewing on his cage (that he does quite often, but I have him set on a certain feeding schedule and don't have any chewing sticks for him at the moment, so I...

Currently sat next to Spud who is in a makeshift tray-cage waiting for him to do a wee. Both boys had a vet check up today after being on Baytril since Christmas. We know we probably won't cure their problem and they'll be on LT antibiotics but all has so far been going well. Nothing too out...

Ahh that looks so cool! Do you leave it up permanently? I think that I will get hubby building something after Christmas while he's off work....am thinking if we extend their cage under the stairs it will eliminate the need for so much in the lounge but we can just use our playpen so give them a...

My husband let me open one of my Christmas gifts early. Mostly because it was a big box and didn't want to wrap it. I am so excited! It will be so helpful for me when cleaning my 7 cages!

🙈 typical for it to blow on Xmas. She definitely won’t mind the dark :) It will just be you navigating the bathroom in the dark lol. Glad she’s safe and warm in there! Hope bonding her goes well for you (when quarantine is over) 🤞🏻

Following on from @PigglePuggle's hilarious 12 Days of Christmas Piggy Version @VickiA suggested a thread where we could Piggyfy Christmas Carols so here it is! Here is @PigglePuggle's with other member's lines thrown in too. 12 days of Christmas- the cage cleaning version! On the first day of...

I am asking for this for Christmas, they have a ramp in there cage now, no wired bottom, Why not!?!?!

Hi. Sorry that my first post in this forum is a sad one. I adopted 2 guinea pigs in April 2021 who were around 2 years old. Their previous owners had lost interest and were allergic so I was glad to give them a new home, especially as the previous owners said that others who had shown interest...

BIG HUGS I am so sorry but very glad for you that it didn't happen at Christmas. Metacam doesn't make piggies wobbly but something clearly went wrong and her body was closing down. You did all the right things. Seizures are common in dying piggies in the later stages when oxygen deprivation...

Hi and welcome! You have likely two boars, but they have sadly had a fall out because they are very much not a character match and have obviously not been able to agree about who should be the leader/ There is nothing you can do to change their personalities or make them like each other...

the christmas stocking looks good on the cage !

Hello, I am stuck on how to re-design my cage as I know it can't be so easily changed once you've cut the correx etc. I have a C & C which I was originally planning on being 6 x 6 (210x210) on the floor. But then I've realised it is possible to make a stand with extra grids which possibly will...

Poppet seemed to be doing well, gaining weight and eating more on his own. The vet said this morning, chest clear so stop the antibiotic. He had his veggies tonight and was seeming a bit brighter although still breathing rapidly. Then I noticed poo protruding from his bum so we gently removed...

Thanks. I’ve been Googling and unfortunately all the rescues are too far away for me as I don’t drive. So I won’t be getting any from a rescue. Do you have any good tips for them adjusting the weather, obviously more layers of bedding would help. Even if you used a boarder wouldnt this mean...

Hello All, I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas in these hard times! So about a week ago I adopted two 6 month old sows who where no longer wanted as the daughter lost interest. I was told they where well bonded and would squeal for each other if one was picked up out the cage and the other...
