Remember, guinea pigs are herbivores!
Avoid these foods: - Don't fall for commercial treats marketed for cavies (like yoghurt drops) which can even be detrimental to their health. Consuming these empty calories (many contain fat, sugars and even excess calcium) can result in decreased consumption of the basic foods they really need.
- Do not feed mixes or treats with nuts, seeds, dried fruit and dyed pieces.
- Do not use mineral wheels.
- Do not feed meat.
- Do not feed rabbit pellets (they do not contain Vitamin C and some may even include antibiotics toxic to cavies).
- Do not feed dairy products.
