I know there are a lot of people like me out on this forum, with thread after thread about what to do to keep the guinea pigs from making parents unhappy..so I thought I'd make this thread to share what I know after about a year of this fun ever going battle :rolleyes: and also as sort of an...

I guess this would go here, I guess it's sort of a rant/asking for help so idk. Ok well I have three sows, but I happen to have two dominants. So I made a petition to my parents almost two weeks ago. I asked for another sow, one that wasn't dominant, so I could give them each their buddies...

OK so I was at a party and I was talking to my cousin about guinea pigs..like my usual conversations :) Anyway we were talking about cages, and she said that instead of coroplast, she uses the under the bed style storage bins! And my mind was blown! I can't believe I never thought it before...

Hi! So I had a sow who got two little bald spots on her nose from a fungal infection, but we got that cleared up, and now the hair has grown back only, it's not white anymore. It's agouti like her patches are! Does anyone have any idea what is going on? She had a scrape on her shoulder that...

Small pet litter made from recycled paper to pack in absorbency power Is this ok for guinea pigs? It's cheaper than the other products but it doesn't say anything about using it for guinea pigs. It looks like it's just paper pellets...

I know you're supposed to feed young guinea pigs and pregnant and nursing pigs alfalfa hay and pellets, and adult guinea pigs timothy hay and pellets, but what do you do when you have them both in the same cage? I have a five month old, a seven month old, and a 1 year old (cavy). Should I just...

I have three cavys, two of which i recently got from a pet store. I'm worried that they are sick. The two from the pet store have runny noses and sneeze. Their noses are crusty and they wipe them a lot with their paws. Its really worrying me, but my parents won't take them to the vet! What...

Hello everyone, I'm aeiou, and I am all for cavys! I have had many pets before cavys, and I never quite loved one as much. I have a turtle, fish, and hamster as well as cavys, but they all take the second place compared to them! I remember the feeling the first time I held one....ahhh... it...
