wounds

Hi everybody, I'm new here, and I've been having some concerns with my boy, Teddy. I got him on 7/5/2022, and noticed that he was much smaller than all the other guinea pigs in his enclosure. I watched them all for about two hours, and saw that when he made any attempt to move towards the...

Hi guys! I posted a few weeks ago about a Guinea pig I was fostering that I've now kept lol! He's been castrated and now needs to wait 5 more weeks until he can have some friends. Well, two girls came into the rescue and they're in a right old state! I was happy to foster them in the hopes...

Hi guys, We adopted two new girls a few weeks ago and they were very scared of humans, I don't think they got much contact in their old home. I noticed the day we picked them up that when they're scared Anya, the more confident of the two will climb onto her sisters back? This didn't bother...

Yesterday I was doing floor time in a big space with my two guinea pigs who are brothers, Alan and Blondie. I left them alone for a little bit to clean their cage. They live together in one cage but they are seperated from each other because they always use to have little squabbles that die off...
