Guineapig lover
Junior Guinea Pig
Sadly, pebbles passed away this morning unexpectedly, which was a bit of a shock. And I’m left with a dilemma. Her companion, Peach is only 4.5 years old (female, spade) who has quite a feisty/bossy personality has been left on her own.
Normally I’d jump at the chance of adopting a companion as I know guinea pigs don’t do well on their own. But peach has had on/off health issues with bladder stones which often require treatment. So I’m not sure if getting another Guinea pig is such a good idea, as I don’t know how her health will be long term. And she was often bad tempered with pebbles. Do you have any thoughts?
