Clothes?

Is it ok if I put a bow on my guinea pig? Like a little one?

Wouldn't recommend you to do so, because they don't really need it and they can be bothered by it, or even chew it or get hurt by it depending on how the bow is attached to the hair! And clothing (like sweaters or costumes or things like that) is definitely a no-no for piggies. They are animals, not plushies!

Lol I know their not plushies and another question is cold water bad for piggies?

 

[Teddybear22]

I actually can't answer to that so hopefully another member of the forum can say something to you, but I never gave cold water to mine, just fresh one, changing it everyday.
And sorry if I offended you, when I said that they're not plushies I was actually thinking more on the people that dress them with costumes!

 

[Natalie_Castle]

No its ok you didn't offend me at all☺

I'm sure they're not meant to have water that's too cold. Mines get tap water (Scotland has amazing tap water) but I'd never use water that's been in the fridge or freezer. I'm sure I've seen something on here about how water that's too cold can make them ill

Oooh ok

I agree that Scotland has amazing tap water My boys get it straight from the tap - it's cold but not fridge cold.
