Joey&Gizmo
Adult Guinea Pig
One of my boys Gizmo doesn't drink much water and i was wondering if there was anything that i could do to encourage him to drink more?
He does have watery veg daily and eats all of it, but he dosent seem to visit the water bottle very often, unlike Joey who will always has a drink every day.
Gizmo is recovering from a UTI and the vet suggested that i syringe him 10mls of water daily just to flush his urinary system out and he said it would be beneficial for Gizmo as he isnt a big drinker. But Gizmo isnt too keen on the syringing as i suppose he thinks its the horrible septrin coming his way, so any tips on how to encourage water intake if any would be much appreciated.
