Hi Claire, thanks for the welcome and for the advice. Might pets at home do this and pay the bills do you think? We have still not paid off the large vets bill from trying to help our 5 year old pig who died during an operation just before Christmas and it's so upsetting to think we have to head...

what's father pigmas bringing in your house this year? is anyone planning to decorate the piggie cage ready for christmas? I have got some piggie parcels cranberries and some rosewood Christmas coloured rattan balls and I want to get them a carrot cottage too. and our lovely old man snake is...

Here it is one week from diagnosis. Rosie is eating, albeit less than a month ago, but hay is about the same. I do have critical care on hand and she has been still moving around and standing up at the side of the cage. Earlier this week I threw an early Christmas for the girls, took lots of...

Hywel had his dental abscesses in parallel with my hub being seriously ill and my then 7 years old Nerys suddenly losing control of her back legs and her appetite and teetering very much on the edge for several days but she made it through the crisis and wobbled on to celebrate her 8th birthday...

Thank you this gives me a bit of hope. I don’t have much luck with poorly piggies usually I get My hopes up and they’re quickly crashed at the vets. I won’t put him through anything massive because it’s not fair and it would be me being selfish but if it is fixable and he’s willing to fight I...

wanted to make a post about my favourite guinea pig in the entire world who passed last night. Pepper has been with me since 2015 and has had several cage mates and then spent the last year just us (as she was obviously getting quite old and seemed happy with our company, i spent everyday with...

It depends on what yours prefer. Keep in mind that the recent hard cold spell before Christmas has meant increased heating and less airing in order to save money; the drier air in the room could be the culprit rather than the hay. Mine treat stalky timothy hay as not edible and I had to cast...

I have a text message (and therefore written proof as far as I'm concerned) that says I can have guinea pigs. It'll take maybe a couple of months to get cages/bedding/food/hay etc sorted but there's no way it's not happening now lol. I genuinely can't wait, I feel like everyone else is looking...

Hi, I recently acquired two guinea pigs from a former coworker around Christmas time. I’m not sure how old they were, but they were fully grown and quite large. His older stepson never paid attention to them, so they mostly just sat in a cage. They were otherwise well cared for I believe. I...

Hey everyone, this is piggle related but more about fears and worries on my end so please bare with me, if this isn't appropriate then please let me know. So yesterday after holding my new baby female and my nearly six year old female together I put them back leaving the shed door open (as...

Was their cage big enough? I also had guinea pigs who fought to the point of blood being drawn(i separated them after) and now i realize it was just becouse they lived in a way to small cage. If that is the reason then maybe (I'm not sure though, someone else please correct me if I'm wrong) you...

Hi, my guinea pigs are being moved in to the summer house this weekend. When it has been too cold or wet to be in their run, we have brought them inside the house in a play pen so they get exercise. This won’t be an option over Christmas as we have family to stay and need the space. What does...

You could take him back to pets at home and have him seen by their vet and yes, they should fund the vets bills as like I say, they have essentially sold you a faulty product. I'm so sorry for the loss of you 5 year old pig

I got 2 little guinea pigs the week before Christmas. I was told they are both males. I started to question this because the one constantly sways his hips side to side and makes a rumbling sound to the other (I read this can be a mating call? Or is it just him trying to show dominance?) Whenever...

Unfortunately, it has become a double piggy burial for me today. Breila and Hyfryd with their goodbye bouquets - sweet Spring clematis and a white pelargonium flower for Breila and winter jasmine, rosmary (for remembrance) and the last red porch pot flowers that have survived the big frost for...

September the 6th is now a date that I will never forget and will always be a day that is filled with sorrow. It was the date I lost you Susie and unfortunately, you had to move onto the Rainbow Bridge. There are many other things I will never forget, the more happier memories such as your...

Hi there, I'm 'The Wife'. Thanks for your message. Really thought we were getting on top of this until after just before Christmas when he started this flare up, which I just cannot control. He's always on 1 capsule of Cystease daily and I have upped this to two a day when this first started...

My little man died yesterday and I am heartbroken. I think he was about 6 months old when I got him, along with Primrose and Jess, and I've had him 5 years and 4 months. He was a lot smaller than the girls and had a short body (though eventually he filled out). I only had Jess six weeks so most...

Well it’s safe to say Pepper is very excited for Christmas! (Or a clean cage) Login • Instagram

Hi I am ever so sorry for your loss. Some things are out of your control - you can never choose when and what from your piggies die. :( All you can do is make the days you have with them happy ones because that is how piggies judge their life by. They do not have a concept for an average life...
