I'm just wondering if I can put a bottle of frozen water wrapped in a towel in their cage rather than buying ice pods, just as its a cheap option and I'm a bit short on cash :P

Also, I am in a flat and the rooms stay very cool with the windows open. Is it actually neccessary to give them some form of cooling? I worry about them getting either too hot or too cold.
 
The theory with guinea pigs, is that if you're hot/cold, they probably are too!

If you think they might like it, you can certainly do the frozen bottle thing, mine have one in with them at the moment. As you've already said, cover it with a towel or something so it's not too cold for them, and pop it in a place where they can get away from it if they decide they don't need it.

Thanks a lot I'll try it and see how they get on :)
 
Before you put the bottle in the freezer, pop a few pinches of salt in the water. It takes longer to defrost :)
