Teenage Guinea Pig
Hi guys, I have a couple of questions and I'd love it if you could give me some tips on the following subjects!
So first, bedding. My pigs have a layer of newspaper and then wood shavings. I was thinking, for spot cleaning it would be much easier if there was no newspaper. Would it be OK to just have wood shavings and no paper?
And then we get to nail trims. Oh, the worst task in the world due to a few things - Chip is a wriggle pig who HATES nail trims, Pip is OK but skittish, and the fact I once cut too far on Chip and I was devastated. I am now scared do trim his nails and he really needs them doing. Have you awesome people got any tips for this? How to feel better about it, how to get it done (it's soooo tricky)?
Thanks,
Erin.
