    Sweet Little Willow

    Willow passed away overnight last night. She was very sick and we were going to take her to the vet today, but her breathing was labored this morning, and she passed. She was four days old and was the runt of the group and was really precious and sweet. We really did love her.

    Baby VERY small?

    My guinea pig, Oreo, just gave birth to four beautiful babies 4 days ago, and she had 3 big babies, but one small one. At first we thought it was just the only girl, but turns out we have two boys and two girls, including her. We call her Willow, and we are very concerned about her. She only...

    How Far Along is She?

    My guinea pig, Oreo is definitely pregnant, and I want to know how far along she is. Her nipples are really showing, and last night, we felt the babies kicking like crazy. She's sleeping a lot, she eats a lot, and drinks a lot.

    Behavior My Boy Jumped Into The Girls Side?

    When I came home from school today, my mom told me what our guinea pig Ace did. We have five guinea pigs; three boys and two girls. We have a huge cage with grids in the middle separating them, and a blanket covering them, because the boys chew on them. Apparently, today Ace jumped up on the...

    Other My New Dog Pawing the Cage?

    I just got new dog, Chloe, and she paws the cage, and jumps whenever the guinea pigs run really fast across the cage. It really fascinates her, but when take them out for her to sniff them, she sniffs them, then gets bored. Anyways, every night she just sits there and watches them and paws the...

    General New piggy!!!

    We just got a new guinea pig and he looks so tiny compared to our other males! (We have two other males). They are pretty much ignoring him, but Ace sometimes walks over to him and rumble struts a bit. He follows Ace everywhere! We named him Badger since he has a little "badge"/patch of whit on...

    Eyes/Non-crusty Partially Blind?

    My guinea pig, Buddy has red eyes, and when we feed him, we have to put his food close to his face for him to see it or he follows our other boy Ace to get food. When we hold him, he has to sniff everything and sometimes he slips off my pants. However, when he goes to his pigloo, he's fine. Is...

    General Still Won't Let Me Pet Them?

    I know all guinea pigs are different when it comes to taming, but both of my boys are tame now, but my girls still won't even let me pet them. Is it easier to tame males than females? Last night, we tried to hold our girls, and they acted crazy! We always lure them inside a pigloo, or tunnel...

    Fur Shaking Very Hard! :(

    Every time I hold my guinea pig, Buddy, he shakes in my lap when he walks. Also, he feels like hes purring when I pet him, but there is no noise. Now as I'm typing this, I can feel that every once in a while, he shakes every few seconds. It feels like h's shivering. Is he scared? Thank you!

    Nails/Nail Trimming Black Nail Tips?

    I got a white new guinea pig about a month ago, and I was holding him, and I could see his nails had black tips. Should I be really worried? Or is it normal? He's an all white with red eyes guinea pig. (Not a lethal white)

    General Neutering?

    I have four guinea pigs. Two boys and two girls. I would like to have them all together one day, and I found an experienced vet near me willing to neuter them. I have been reading up on neutering your boars. My boars don't have dominance issues and I know that neutering them will not change...

    Ferrets C&C For Ferrets with Coroplast Really Tall?

    I would like to get a ferret, and it would be really cheap if I gave him a C&C, but I know a ferret would be able to get through the holes, so could I make the coroplast go really tall on the sides, or would that be bad for them, because they couldn't get air? Or would they chew it? Also, I've...

    Goodbye Daisy and Oreo...

    They didn't die. They are actually quite young. We just have four guinea pigs right now, and we took on too many. I am responsible for the guinea pigs, and I don't have enough money to keep them. Four guinea pigs is too much for us. We have two boys and two girls right now, and a close friend of...

    General Keeping Them Entertained For The Day?

    Since school is back in, I am worried the piggies aren't very happy with being alone. :sad: I mean, they do each have a buddy (Two boys and two girls), but they have no interaction for seven hours of the day. They don't like toys. They would rather chew on things they aren't allowed to chew on...

    Sounds Weird Choking Noise that Scared Me!!!

    Last night, I was holding Ace, and we were giving him some treats. Then, all of the sudden, he made a weird choking noise. Like he was pushing something out of his throat back into his mouth. After that, he acted all fine and wanted more treats. We watched him, and we were silent. After a couple...
