Re: Help!!

The Guinea-pigs became sick after they were taken away from the rabbit, roughly about a month afterwards.
The vet told me it was a bacterial infection caused by the Guinea-pig having a baby.
I am not sure how correct he was, as I do not no allot about diseases or infections that Guinea-pigs can get.
Also it is very common in Ireland to house rabbits and Guinea-pigs together, nearly everyone I know who has a rabbit also has a Guinea-pig in the same cage.
Also nearly everyone keeps there Guinea-pig outside in a hutch, I have bought an indoor one since my Guinea-pigs got sick. Is it wrong to keep them outdoors?
