#guineapigs

My 2 year old girl called Esme has not been eating that much for about 2 weeks. We took her to the vets 10 days ago but they didn't know what was wrong with her. They said that her teeth and bladder were fine. They also said that her intestines seemed fine. They did say that she was too light...

Hi there. I was crying in cookies cage and all of a sudden he started zooming around me. Did I frighten him? And I tried to calm him down and he kept biting the cage bars of walnut’s cage.

Hello everyone, I’m just wondering how much should you take your piggies out of their cage or give them lap time? How important is this and how much do you let your piggies have floor and lap time? Is once a week enough or should it be more? Thanks x

Hi, I really want to start my piggies on a low calcium diet but I don’t know what I can and can’t feed them. Do I still feed pellets, if so how much? What veg should be given as a treat and what veg could I give almost daily? Thanks x
