| Can anyone help? Hi everyone I new to this board and to keeping cavies. I have had Bubble, my first cavy, for 6 weeks she is a female and 12 weeks. Today I have introduced a 6 week old rough haired female called Buffy to the cage but they don't seem to getting along very well. To begin with I left Buffy in her travel box in the cage so Bubble could get used to her smell, I did this for an hour as I was advised by my vet. I then sat both Buffy and Bubble on my lap together for a further hour. Bubble was interested in Buffy, sniffing her and snuggled up to her. After they had both been in their house for a while Bubble started to be quite aggressive and has pushed Buffy out of the living quarters, Buffy is now hiding under a log. Does anyone have any advice they could give me. I don't want to have to seperate them if I can help it but I don't want either of them to hurt each other. |

| Thank you for trying to help. I've had to take Buffy out and give her, her own house. Unfortunatley in the night they must have had a bit of a fight as when I got up in the morning to check on Buffy she had a bite mark on the back of her neck and tiny nibble marks in her ears. I think she was quite traumatised by it, since then she's been very subduded and has hardly eaten anything. I'm keeping a close eye on her and bathing the wound in a saline solution in the morning and evening. |
