My vet says my piggies need to lose weight. He's been telling me that for about 6 months now.(They're only about 40-50 grams overweight, but he wants to stop it now cause they're both about three. They both have recently had blood tests and wellness exams, and they're both in great health but they keep gaining weight! I only give them less than a handful of pellets a day, unlimited hay, romaine,red and green leaf lettuce, carrots and cucumbers(they're the only veggies they'll touch after 3 years of trying and they don't get them daily),and once in a great while, a raisin cause I know they're not good for them, but they love them and a little cantaloupe. They don't look fatter to me, but he says they are. They're both pretty active, real sweethearts! Any suggestions as to what I can do? I've been giving them less and less of everything for 6 months now, but it doesn't do any good! He's a really great cavy specialist so I'm sure their health really is fine. He's removed a tumor from one and the other one had a neurological problem 3 years ago that he fixed just great! Help!
