Guinea Pig Land!
Ok, I have given three of my sows floor time in the kitchen and was about to put them away and found they all have wet bellies from peeing and sitting in it!

They STINK and I'm inclined to bath them and keep them in a cage over night while they dry.

What would you guys do? Cuz I don't wanna do the wrong thing, bath them and it be too cold. However I will set their cage up in our bedroom so they are warm throughout the night. And dry them off as best as I can once bathed.
 
It's up to you. Personally, I would only dry them off with a towel and hold off bathing them until you are sure you can provide a constant warm temperature for them while they dry off after being bathed - more likely during the day when it's naturally warmer as well.

I do find it just a little annoying to pick up a piggie absolutely covered in pee though. :))
 
You could get a flannel and give them a quick clean on their belly's? That way you dont have to do a full bath or just put a little bit of water in a bowl and wash their belly's not all their back etc?

My two boys sometimes do this and i use a flannel or just wash their belly's. :))
 
Thats a good idea Joey&Gizmo, unfortunately I don't have anything (that hasn't had cleaning products on it) that I can use at the moment.

Thanks Laura, I'll bath them tomorrow then. I've dried one off and gonna put her back...but she STINKS! So they will all need baths.

Thanks again Laura.
