It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the piggie cage. I saw this fleece at my local fabric shop and for £12 it had to be mine!

I’m getting a cat after Christmas. Do I have to make the Guinea pig cage like Fort Knox or will they be fine with each other. Hubby is trying to enclose it at the moment, the language is quite blue. Lol

Hey I’m new here so I hope I’m in the right area and doing this right I was wondering if anyone had any advice about young Guinea pig behaviour basically bit of backstory I’ve had a pair of male pigs for about four years (Ben and Jerry) and sadly just before Christmas ben passed away. I’m aware...

Hi and welcome BIG HUGS A sudden death out of the blue, which can happen without warning at any age, is always shaking you to the core and is leaving you with usually unanswerable questions. Unfortunately, only a post mortem examination at the vet's may or may not give you the answers you...

Got home to more blood in the cage and she has blood in and around her vagina 😞 But I managed to get the Pro C from pets at home. This was dotted around the cage, not one big clump. Anyway, I have her an appointment booked at the vets for next Wednesday as that’s when her antibiotics run out and...

Hi How much recovery formula are feeding in 24 hours?

This is not yet the time for healing but if you can hang on in there, it will eventually come - I promise. After not losing a single piggy in 27 during the 18 months of the thick of the pandemic and then losing 22 of them in the following 24 months between 15th August 2021- 15th August 2023 has...

I have had a feets-up late afternoon and evening after our Christmas dinner (as always cooked by hub) - and no more cage cleaning for another two days! Just washing...

HUGS Hopefully the zithromax won't affect the appetite this time. Over half of my own piggies were fine with it. :tu: Dylan only needed support for one week right at the very end of his 4 weeks but it shrunk his jaw abscess right down over Christmas 2019 - and it never came back up again...

I have 2 5x2 fleeces from Guineapigmarket that I use for bedding for my two male guinea pigs. I always swap them when I wash the fleece, so that I can immediately put new fleece in the cage and let the pigs back in the cage right away instead of having to wait until it goes through the laundry...

Thank you for your reply. I just wondered what your thoughts were if they were in a separate top and bottom hutch at night, and then out during the day in separate runs 8ft and 4ft each, but right next to each other. I currently have one run but could get another. Would this be enough...

Aw. The joys of a carrot cottage 🤣 I cut a bit off the bottom for the old gents to make it easier to get on. Bertie has a little step too. His cage buddie Jellybaby who we lost before Christmas used to prefer the inside so it always ended up upside down anyway! The things we do for our piggies 💕

What do I do on Christmas eve? Redo my cages of course lol. I finished the upgrades. Everyone got larger cages. My single boys are all side by side lengthwise now. They are in 2 by 6 instead of 2 by 5 now. My duo boys have a 2 by 10 c and c cage. My female trio are now in a 2 by 12 c and...

Just before Christmas I was taking care of a family member who had pneumonia. The pigs had everything they needed except my attention throughout the day. You wouldn't believe the amount of poop I found flung a fair distance outside the cage during this time. As soon as I was able to get back...

I'm afraid not. They need constant 24/7 side by side interaction.

We don’t decorate the cages but do have Christmas lights in the rooms (overnight in my son’s bedroom and daytime in my ‘office’ space next to the kitchen). While away visiting my sister our pet feeders decorated Chips! Meanwhile the cats have been removing and playing with the tree decorations 😁

Here is a video of my black ca. 3 years old Nosgan 'Nightsong' and my little white Nye 'Noble' as a ca. 6 months old teenager who'd not long been neutered having roaming time around the ground floor Tribe cages with my mixed gender groups. They'd been together for coming up to 3 months by that...

He was acting like normal again, even so we kept him inside but brought in the other piggies to socialise with him. After 2 weeks of being fine he started getting a little sniffly, he had a runny nose but apart from that he was acting normal and fine. We checked his chest, there was no...

Amazing, I am so envious of your space 😊

Also.. ive been sat unable to sleep for a while. I'm not going to lie, I've been wondering what difference I'm actually making in the world lately and for sone reason something my vet said when I went in with Dylan suddenly hit me. He was saying how about 5 years or so ago, the back of Pets at...
