Rabbits also have a natural bacteria in their respiratory tracts called pasterella that can be fatal to a guinea pig. Something I mention the most when people suggest putting them together
thank you so much! my siblings r thinking about getting a rabbit and i was thinking about a cute fun play date and i knew that its bad to house them n stuff due to the simular sicknesses they can get from eachother but i didn't know there was deadly things on the rabbit
Great tips! I love your videos on the clever ways you prepare their food....especially the "sandwiches". Really gives me inspiration to put some thought into my piggies' mealtime.
My parents wouldn't let my get another guinea pig even if I told them that my piggie needed a friend. Is there any way to keep a single piggie happy? I try to spend as much time with her as possible, and I need a way to keep her happy when I'm not there :((
One Obsession please try to persuade your parents and show them videos and facts as to why guinea pigs should not live alone. If it’s not possible try to give her lots of toys and boredom breakers. If all all else fails maybe Rehome her. I know this would be horrible for you it would give your Guinea Pig a great life and she would be happy and have friends.
I persuaded my parents by making up lies like 'guinea pigs have up to 9 babies if they dont have a friend ' then i cut the wifi off so they couldnt search it
One Obsession you can keep your piggie happy by making toys, but don't stop convincing your parents to get another piggie. Guinea pigs are very social, and will need some friends. They can be very lonely and depressed, they might get anti social and stop eating without a friend (At least that's what I've been told). I heard some Guinea pigs don't mind being lonely.. but don't risk your piggie being lonely. I hope you'll be able to get a friend for your piggie
My piggie is alone because the other died and I don't want to have anoter piggies. But he is very happy not alone in the room. He is very shy and now that he is alone he comes more often near me ^^
Aspeda have you heard of the rent a piggy scheme? I don’t know what country you live in so they might not do it. The rent a Guinea Pig is if you have 2 piggies and one of them dies and you do not want to adopt another one you can rent a piggy to come live with you until the one you own dies. The rented Guinea Pig then goes back and is never rented out again. This would give your piggy a friend and make him very happy!
I’ve got young Guinea Pigs as I got them very recently and they are really fussy eaters. So far they only seem to like broccoli and celery, is there a way to make them try more foods? Thanks ❤️
Little Adventures also I’ve had them for a week and they haven’t had any water. They probably get water from the grass but I’m worried. Is there anything I can do?
I've had guinea pigs for most of my life (10 out of 17) and this video is so important for new pig slaves. Long story time: One of my girls started wheezing infrequently last week. It was like a dove cooing but raspy. I told my dad to make an appointment at our vet and he examined Breadster. She had an sinus infection. He told me if I had dismissed the wheezing and waited until she showed more symptoms the infection would have spread to her lungs and she would have died. I've had four pigs, 2 of which died because I ignored the early signs. If something happened to breadster because of my negligence I'd never forgive myself. Especially since her sister Brufort would be all alone. At 7 years old I don't think they'd be able to cope with the loss. We lost Bella last February to heart failure at 8.5 and it devastated everyone. Bella's litter mate, Ella died at 5 years old to unknown causes in August 2014. Ella's death was more sudden. I noticed something was wrong on Friday, she died Saturday. Bella's death was prolonged. She started losing energy and huffing after exercise. She stopped being able to climb the ramp. She lost muscle mass. She lost weight. And then she died. I could have prevented it or at least made them comfortable. But I chose not to. I essentially murdered my own pigs. Don't be me. Don't regret not taking your pigs to the vet for the rest of your life.
mardalfossen This is so important! People need to trust the vet, not only google (although it can be useful to find out if the unusual behaviour your piggy is displaying needs to be checked out.)
So glad you made this video!! I was considering investing in a harness for my pigs. I've read mixed reviews about them, but wasn't considering the factor of their spines. Love all your videos!!
At a pet store I saw a leash "for small animals" I thought it was weird because the lady that works at the store told me they have fragile backs and we have to be carefull. I didnt buy it btw..
Little Adventures, you are my absolute favorite TH-camr EVER! You help so many people understand and fix their errors in such a kind way, while also letting us enjoy the company of your piggies!! What is better than that? I feel like a guinea pig pro now, and I also have helped lots of other people based off of your information. Thank you!
I am sooo happy i found you and your family!! There is simply no other life than the piggie life! Great info, although my insticts, research and experience are decent, it really takes an actual piggie mumma for the best tips! Not to mention having another piggie lover to talk to!! Surprisingly, alot of people just don't get it!! i wish everyone could have a piggie, it would be great public policy!! No more worries and loneliness! Lol,
This was very helpful! I have my guinea pigs first vet appointment on Monday to get treated for mites. It’s so hard to find a vet for them where I live especially one we can afford. I love your piggies though! They are adorable❤️
Please find information on google how big the cage needs to be for the amount of piggies you have! It's really important because if you have two/or more they need more space. They will start fighting otherwise. The other thing is that when you get a new piggy and just put him with the old without introducing it won’t go well. Slowly introduce them in a natural area- where the old piggy hasn’t claimed everything. There are videos on youtube that can explain it better than I do. Please make some research and good luck.
Thanks you inspired me to spend half of my day or most of my day with them they now eat out of my hand , let me pet them, and let me take them out of there cage for floor time, ALSO! (Lol), and let me get really close to them they always are happy since I’ve spent more time with my piggies thank you for doing this.. inspiring me..! ❤️
I would never wash my Guinea pigs with soap. The bathing is only to get off the worst sometimes or to cool them a little bit in summer with warm water though. I do not bathe them often, but there are those Guinea pigs who really don't move that much and like to sit on their warm poo. And then they look quite.. Dirty on their stomach
Pretty sure my guinea pig Munch-Munch (Because he his small, and loves to eat) has recognized your voice since I always have him around when I play your videos. I guess my guinea pig really wants a phone to subscribe on!
I have an open topic cage that I put my 3 guinea pigs in when we're cleaning their cage, they absolutely love it. Sometimes I sit in with them and they crawl on me!
Hi!!! I just got a Guinea Pig as a present a week ago and since the person that got it for me didnt know any better its only one little guy. He really young, small and scared of EVERYTHING. We never pick him up since he panics when we do and he also hides whenever we even walk in the room (mind you its only been 2 weeks) do you think it would be a problem if i get another Guinea pig now? I figure he'd be happier having another pal around but i'm scared he'd be freaked out of the new Guinea pig
What are sings of a fungal infection? I have a young guinea pig and I recently noticed she has a spot on her nose that sticks out and looks a little weird. She also had dry skin on her paw I’ve checked other parts of her and nothing else is off. I’ve been using coconut oil and the dry patch has cleared on her paw and some on her nose but she still has a spot that sticks off more than just dry skin..it has not worsened in the past few days.
She's not saying can't, she doesnt recommended cause guinea pigs are actually fussy. But if you do want to give then vitamin C just fees them veggies, a lot of vegetables like cucumber have vitamin C and other nutrients which I myself find to be a lot better
My mom wants to get a Guinea pig for my little sister and my sister and I told my mom we need to get 2 of them but she said its not gonna happen and that the Guinea pig will be fine but im still worried, what should I do to keep it happy without another Guinea pig?
My guniea pigs hate getting wet but sometimes on very hot days we fill a small shallow container like an ikea draw with cold water and let them have a little play in it. If you do this make sure you dry your guinea pig after because the cold can make them sick. They tend to shake their coats like dogs if they think that they are too wet though
My mom is thinking about letting me get two Guinea Pigs as long s I pay for almost everything. I have all accessories picked out and I am going to sew some pillows and hammocks. I want to get two females. I would really like to get them from a rescue but there are none near me, so that leaves me with just getting two at the pet shop. But I have a few questions: 1 while picking them at the store, should I take out the two that I would like and play with them both? 2 what do I do if they sell me a female that is actually a male? How do I distinguish the genders? 3 when I get home with them, do I immediately put them both into the cage or do I give them floor time? Thank you so much!
I give them pomegrenade seeds and the inside left over from squeezed oranges,apple peelings, red beet peelings and stuff them with hay,always a full water bottle. They get all the vitamins.
Hi I have a guinea pig that is alone and is about 3 years old. I got here alone as well. I am not sure if she will be able to bond with another guinea pig. What would be your thoughts. I really want her to be happy. If it is possible would the basic small c&c cage be able to hold them. Thanks
I put my piggy in a small carrier while I clean his tank but sometimes he will pee in it and get himself all covered, I usually give him a quick bath or rinse when he does this which he doesn't seem to mind all that much. Would you consider this to be okay?
Can I have some advice?When my piggies have floor time they just sit there.They don't move.Should I add some tunnels?chew toys?Also im not adding a play pen because once we tried that then one of my guinea pigs jumped out.She was to stressed.They move in their home but not at floor time Edit: My mum puts the yellow thing in their water!And she won't let me put it back to normal
Hello. I have 2 guinea pigs (brothers). I’m thinking about giving them away to another family because my family don’t have that much time. I try to be as much with them as i can, (around 2 hours a day) but i don’t think It’s enough.
Hello, I would like to ask you a quick question that has been crossing my mind lately. I would like to know if salt wheels are bad for guinea pigs, I have heard that they're both good and bad so I don't know what to believe and my guinea pig has had hers for a couple of months and I'm starting to get worried. Thanks for your help and taking the time to read this comment, I love your videos.
I got two guineas pig pups a few weeks ago. One of them died not too long ago. (I got them from Petco and they both had ringworm. Big whoop.) What should I do? How long should I wait till getting my lonely pup a friend?
I have two male piggies, they are separated because they were constantly fighting and mine is scared of the other one (my sisters) Hers is a lot bigger than mine because they fought over food and mine wouldn't get enough. Is it OK to keep them apart or should we let them be together again?
I have 2 guinea pigs and they live separately because the first one was a gift and the second one was given to me after living with my sister. They were bought at different times and do not get along. I need tips on what to do. I had no idea they required so much and i also need help figuring out an appropriate cage for them. Thanks in advance
I have a question i have one guinea pig but i know i need two i told my mom when we where getting him that we need two is there a way i should get on he's is one year old he has a pet cage but its a HUGE ONE im planning to adopt and make a cage if i can adopt ive been asking my mom if we can we went to petco and she said if i can keep coco healthy which i have so my question is should i buy a guinea pig or adopt and how can i convince her
I give my guinea pig a bath every week to help make his sore go away, and it works! Once it's gone I'll stop giving him baths. Though we can't afford a vet at the moment, once in awhile I'll put peroxide on the sore and it works fine but he really hates it and I feel bad for putting it on there but it's to help him get better. I always make sure to warn the person holding him when I put the peroxide on him!
I've got a young guinea pig(boy) while I have also a older one(girl). So the scenario is the older one and the young is always fighting as soon as I take the partition in their cage. What to do? The young is going on top of the older one and the older one start biting him.
Hello! I have a question, actually need buy just one because my mom dont really want to buy 2 or 3 because its harder, and im very sad because we cant but 2.. sooo its okay just with one? Maybe?
Is it okay to have cowlicks on a Guinea pig? I bought mine with them and it died two weeks in, and I'm not very sure of the cause of it, I have a very large cage and plenty of food and water, I'm thinking of getting a new one with cowlicks since I like the look of them. But not if it's bad for them or a sign of sickness
I recently got one guinea pig and my mom won’t let me get an other one. I do talk to him tho and he seems kinda more comfortable. He’s also in a room with other animals such as fish and sometimes my dog comes in (pretty sure he’s scared of him tho.) What should I do?
I have had my guinea pigs for a little more than a year. They LOVE Romaine Lettuce. I’m afraid that they have too much calcium in their diet. What is the best veggie to feed them for an everyday veggie? (Right now their everyday veggie is romaine lettuce)
I pet Panther (one of the class Guinea pigs) near his butt like the end of his back and he made this purring sound and squeaked really loud and was high pitched and he has never been that pitched. I think I did something or hurt him. Why did he do that? Please reply.
Hey have you experienced piggies bring aggressive. I have 3 boys. One is alright with the others, but the other 2 fight. I'm not sure what to do, I have had to separate one out but don't want him to be on his own because it's not good for him. I'm thinking that if I can't work out a solution I will need to re-home one. So sad because they are all amazing personalities
Aw I wish I can get another guinea pig but they’re really expensive I have one guinea pig since i rescued it but I can’t get another one but I just got cat since the people that were fostering it was desperate to find it a new and permanent home so we took it in and it’s really friendly with other animals so if I have the guinea pig and cat together but supervised will that keep it from being lonely?? Help
hey, may i just ask if you dont mind, what do you use to edit? i only use imovie which isnt very good because it only has a limited amount of things such as texts and songs. thanks! x
I had three guinea pigs and two died I have one and she's pretty old so I don't want to buy a buddy when she may not have years to live yet and it's been a month since her friends died and seems to be doing fine, any other tips I could use so she doesn't become lonely?
We’ve never taken our guinea pig to the vet since we got him, because my mom insists that if he doesn’t look sick then he isn’t, even though I’ve tried to explain to her that that’s not how it works. She also says that because he doesn’t like being picked up we can’t take him. How can I convince her that we need to take him?
Have any if your pigs ever got ringworm? My guinea pig has ring worm but I don't know where he got it from. Do you know any good treatments for ringworm? I am getting spray for him tomorrow.
Sierra Collins if you got your guinea pig from petco it is ringworm one of the pigs I got from petco had it go to a vet and they will give you proper treatment
The only ones I failed was keeping it alone and im trying to convince my parents to get a second one he has been at my home with no other pigs for a year now and I feel pretty bad but they said no because they think it will stink more (which ik isnt true) and there isnt enough room for a c&c cage but the only cage im using is a store bought :(( also they dont want fleece pecause my mom doesnt want guinea pig pee in her washer. I just feel really bad. I also failed the harness one but he cant fit in it anyway so I havent used it on him in about half a year.
I’m going to try my best to ask my mom to get another guinea pig and we only have one after reading articles I feel really bad but I’ll also be depressed if I give my guinea pig away some problems about getting a second guinea pig are cage cleaning, money, and space
My guinea pig doesn’t seem to like the new babies and tends to just dominate them and one of them doesn’t like it and other one trying to dominate him and I don’t know what to do
I got two new guinea pigs after my first guinea passed 2 days ago. I didn't know cedar was bad and I didn't know they're supposed to have companions.. Rest Easy Ralph I love you and miss you so much... 💔❤
So right now there is one guinea pig at pet co. Could I get that one for a week or less without another piggie? Bc I could go up to pet smart and get another but for now I can just get one until I can go up to pet smart. Could I???
Rabbits also have a natural bacteria in their respiratory tracts called pasterella that can be fatal to a guinea pig. Something I mention the most when people suggest putting them together
thank you so much! my siblings r thinking about getting a rabbit and i was thinking about a cute fun play date and i knew that its bad to house them n stuff due to the simular sicknesses they can get from eachother but i didn't know there was deadly things on the rabbit
It’s actually the opposite...it’s the guinea pigs that has this bacteria
You know, if I had a guinea pig for every time you said "guinea pigs are prey animals" I would be one happy person!
That's a lot of guinea pig poo!! 😆
andrielisilien LOL
What do you mean
Ummmmmmm
*she only said it once*
Great tips! I love your videos on the clever ways you prepare their food....especially the "sandwiches". Really gives me inspiration to put some thought into my piggies' mealtime.

that's awesome :)
I just died of happiness
Yes me too :)
I’ve got young Guinea Pigs as I got them very recently and they are really fussy eaters. So far they only seem to like broccoli and celery, is there a way to make them try more foods? Thanks ❤️
try as often as possible , they can be really picky but they might start to nibble on things at one point :)
Little Adventures also I’ve had them for a week and they haven’t had any water. They probably get water from the grass but I’m worried. Is there anything I can do?
+Little Adventures my new baby guinea pig Princess is only fed Apple Cubes should we start giving her Cucumber Slices or keep feeding her Apple Cubes
My piggies love kale and cucumber and pepper. Why don’t you try some of that for them
Little Pet Paradise they don’t like pepper or cucumber but I’ll try kale

mardalfossen This is so important! People need to trust the vet, not only google (although it can be useful to find out if the unusual behaviour your piggy is displaying needs to be checked out.)
Predators also hide their illnesses, showing weakness is dangerous for them as well. I love your videos. This explanation just always gets to me.
Wilma is so cute
I agree
She was my favorite! I like how she has a blind spot in front of her face because of that fluff
Rip wilma
So glad you made this video!! I was considering investing in a harness for my pigs. I've read mixed reviews about them, but wasn't considering the factor of their spines. Love all your videos!!
At a pet store I saw a leash "for small animals" I thought it was weird because the lady that works at the store told me they have fragile backs and we have to be carefull. I didnt buy it btw..
mEl jOy its for ferrets and rabbits I believe
Yay!!!!!! Newwwww videoooo!!! 👍👍👍👍 im glad i didn't buy that leash for my guinea pig thank you for saying that
:)
Ikr? I was actually planning on walking mine😅, glad I didnt!!😀
@@ok-ff1wf I tried it too

Poison Ivy oh Ok Thanks
It depends if it's a girl or boy, boys would rather live in separate cage because they are VERY territorial
The same cage
Edit: if they are girls
Cj Armijo even if it’s a boy, please get them a companion. Just introduce them slowly
My piggie (Ollie) always lays on top of his cage mate (Biscuit) 😂 Biscuit always gets very annoyed by this
Jasmine Ward My guinea pug is also named Oliver but I call his Ollie. How cool!
🤣🤣🤣
Rip.
omg I’ve been putting vitamin C drops in their water! Tysm for letting me know omg
I AM LAUGHING SO HARD I JUST THOUGHT FOR A SECOND THAT THE TITLE SAID “How to avoid keeping your guinea pig healthy” 😅😅😅😅😅 PLS SEND HELP 😂
Can u do more videos on how to convince your parents for a guinea pig.
Ella IsAwesome lol how cute
I put my guinea pig outside on the grass for some fresh air and food. It’s nice for her and she loves it!!
I love your videos! They help me so much with my Guniea pig!!
Thanks you inspired me to spend half of my day or most of my day with them they now eat out of my hand , let me pet them, and let me take them out of there cage for floor time, ALSO!

Can you make a video that is 10 signs that your guinea pig is sick
Favorite guinea pig channel
I only have one guinea pig and he is very aggressive with others and they never get along what do I do?!?

I have one question if you can't put vietumen C in your guinea pigs water then where can you put vietumen C in.
She's not saying can't, she doesnt recommended cause guinea pigs are actually fussy. But if you do want to give then vitamin C just fees them veggies, a lot of vegetables like cucumber have vitamin C and other nutrients which I myself find to be a lot better
I’m getting my first guinea pig tomorrow, but I’m not getting my second one for a week. Is that ok??

They get all the vitamins.

Hello. I have 2 guinea pigs (brothers). I’m thinking about giving them away to another family because my family don’t have that much time. I try to be as much with them as i can, (around 2 hours a day) but i don’t think It’s enough.
Hello, I would like to ask you a quick question that has been crossing my mind lately. I would like to know if salt wheels are bad for guinea pigs, I have heard that they're both good and bad so I don't know what to believe and my guinea pig has had hers for a couple of months and I'm starting to get worried. Thanks for your help and taking the time to read this comment, I love your videos.
I got two guineas pig pups a few weeks ago. One of them died not too long ago. (I got them from Petco and they both had ringworm. Big whoop.) What should I do? How long should I wait till getting my lonely pup a friend?
We tested the drops in there water and they love it and they still drink water and thank you little adventures for helping me with my guinea pig
Awe your brown long haired piggy is so cute
I have two male piggies, they are separated because they were constantly fighting and mine is scared of the other one (my sisters) Hers is a lot bigger than mine because they fought over food and mine wouldn't get enough. Is it OK to keep them apart or should we let them be together again?
I have 2 guinea pigs and they live separately because the first one was a gift and the second one was given to me after living with my sister. They were bought at different times and do not get along. I need tips on what to do. I had no idea they required so much and i also need help figuring out an appropriate cage for them. Thanks in advance

Is it ok if I have 1 guinea pig because my other recently passed? Thanks little adventures.
I give my guinea pig a bath every week to help make his sore go away, and it works! Once it's gone I'll stop giving him baths. Though we can't afford a vet at the moment, once in awhile I'll put peroxide on the sore and it works fine but he really hates it and I feel bad for putting it on there but it's to help him get better. I always make sure to warn the person holding him when I put the peroxide on him!
I've got a young guinea pig(boy) while I have also a older one(girl). So the scenario is the older one and the young is always fighting as soon as I take the partition in their cage. What to do? The young is going on top of the older one and the older one start biting him.
Saskia from the la guinea pig rescue says bathe 3 times a year??
What is the plant at 2:01? Seems like your piggie is enjoying it!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Thank u very much for these videos I got a new gp and I still don’t know what to bye him and what to do but your videos help me thank u very much
What if your gone on vac. Or something for a few days or weeks...will they still love you like they did or would they lose trust?
Hello! I have a question, actually need buy just one because my mom dont really want to buy 2 or 3 because its harder, and im very sad because we cant but 2.. sooo its okay just with one? Maybe?
Your Guinea Pigs are so cute!
What if a guinea pigs likes the vitamin c in the water and should I bath then every year or just wet a towel and damp them
Is it okay to have cowlicks on a Guinea pig? I bought mine with them and it died two weeks in, and I'm not very sure of the cause of it, I have a very large cage and plenty of food and water, I'm thinking of getting a new one with cowlicks since I like the look of them. But not if it's bad for them or a sign of sickness
I’ve read that taking them out side is good and I bought a harness for when outside but seeing it’s not fit what do you recommend
I recently got one guinea pig and my mom won’t let me get an other one. I do talk to him tho and he seems kinda more comfortable. He’s also in a room with other animals such as fish and sometimes my dog comes in (pretty sure he’s scared of him tho.) What should I do?
I loved the little clips!
Jupi another video so soon 😁 keep on good work!! 😊
I have had my guinea pigs for a little more than a year. They LOVE Romaine Lettuce. I’m afraid that they have too much calcium in their diet. What is the best veggie to feed them for an everyday veggie? (Right now their everyday veggie is romaine lettuce)
I love your channel you have so much great information
I pet Panther (one of the class Guinea pigs) near his butt like the end of his back and he made this purring sound and squeaked really loud and was high pitched and he has never been that pitched. I think I did something or hurt him. Why did he do that? Please reply.
Ugh I'm late again 😭 o well I still love you and your piggies 😊 ❤️
DIY's And More you commented that twice
Kray Playz oml😂 so did you
Late for what
Hey have you experienced piggies bring aggressive. I have 3 boys. One is alright with the others, but the other 2 fight. I'm not sure what to do, I have had to separate one out but don't want him to be on his own because it's not good for him. I'm thinking that if I can't work out a solution I will need to re-home one. So sad because they are all amazing personalities
I adopted a guinea pig around a month ago but my dad wouldn’t let me buy another one, he might become lonely :(
You should try to convince him to let you do chores to save up money for another one :)
GatchaLove Lana I’m actually saving up, I have around $50 rn and I need $60 more for the cage. Almost half way!! 😄
@@alli991 Yay congrats!
Is there any type of clothes for guiñe pigs for like a little dress up time and if there is do you recommend it ?
Aw I wish I can get another guinea pig but they’re really expensive I have one guinea pig since i rescued it but I can’t get another one but I just got cat since the people that were fostering it was desperate to find it a new and permanent home so we took it in and it’s really friendly with other animals so if I have the guinea pig and cat together but supervised will that keep it from being lonely?? Help
hey, may i just ask if you dont mind, what do you use to edit? i only use imovie which isnt very good because it only has a limited amount of things such as texts and songs. thanks! x
is it okay if my guinea pig doesn't like other guinea pigs ?
I had three guinea pigs and two died I have one and she's pretty old so I don't want to buy a buddy when she may not have years to live yet and it's been a month since her friends died and seems to be doing fine, any other tips I could use so she doesn't become lonely?
@Little Adventures how long did it take for your piggies to get use to u fully?
I leave a bowl of food i got from petco in the cage should i also feed it vegetables some times?
My guinea pig needs showers every 2 weeks her bottom gets really dirty in a short amount of time we cut her fur but it's still getting dirty.
My one guinea pig is squeaking then will turn his neck 70degrees should I take him to the vet?? Also he's sneezing whenever I pick him up?? Help!!
We’ve never taken our guinea pig to the vet since we got him, because my mom insists that if he doesn’t look sick then he isn’t, even though I’ve tried to explain to her that that’s not how it works. She also says that because he doesn’t like being picked up we can’t take him. How can I convince her that we need to take him?
Have any if your pigs ever got ringworm? My guinea pig has ring worm but I don't know where he got it from. Do you know any good treatments for ringworm? I am getting spray for him tomorrow.
Sierra Collins if you got your guinea pig from petco it is ringworm one of the pigs I got from petco had it go to a vet and they will give you proper treatment
The only ones I failed was keeping it alone and im trying to convince my parents to get a second one he has been at my home with no other pigs for a year now and I feel pretty bad but they said no because they think it will stink more (which ik isnt true) and there isnt enough room for a c&c cage but the only cage im using is a store bought :(( also they dont want fleece pecause my mom doesnt want guinea pig pee in her washer. I just feel really bad. I also failed the harness one but he cant fit in it anyway so I havent used it on him in about half a year.
I’m going to try my best to ask my mom to get another guinea pig and we only have one after reading articles I feel really bad but I’ll also be depressed if I give my guinea pig away some problems about getting a second guinea pig are cage cleaning, money, and space
Hey there! Just wanted to know were you got your cage x
Can a guinea pig have just one friend? Would they still be lonely? ( as in, would they be okay with one friend or does it have to be more? )
My guinea pig doesn’t seem to like the new babies and tends to just dominate them and one of them doesn’t like it and other one trying to dominate him and I don’t know what to do
I only got one. The vet never told us we should get two. Would it be bad if I got now?
Now I know why my two girls drink so much! Guinea pigs love water heh heh😋
i have a 3 foot cage for 4 guinea pigs and thinking about geting two more should i get a bigger cage
for them
