Cuddle Monster is white and considered to be a lethal. I got him in March of 2007 so he is about three and a half to four years old. I have come to believe he is mostly blind and deaf. His front teeth need to be trimmed at least monthly. I am now doing it myself. He has had no other problems...
Half of the time I google Cavy Cages Forum I get sent to(broken link removed). I close out and do the same thing again and it brings me here. I am thinking that it is not the computer I use as it only does it when I try to come here.
Do any of your vets offer Pet Portal? One of the vets I use does. I love it! You can sign in and see your pets vaccination history, special food, medications. You can schedule routine vet visits, order more medication, food.

These two girls are at the Charlottesville Albemarle SPCA in Virginia. They were given up because of "allergies". They appear to have some age on them. Tinkerbell, the black and white, has a tumor of some sort on her side. Sugar...
Today I saw the cutest little dog, nice shiny coat, good weight, well groomed. He had the cutest little outfit on. I know that doesn't sound uneducated at all. The problem is his people were standing around in a parking lot talking and looking right at the little fella as he proceeded to...
The folks I work for have a great pyrenees. Chance has always drank a lot of water and urinated frequently. Chance has seen the vet frequently, had blood work done, urinalysis and an ultra sound to check out his kidneys, adrenal glands and such. Finally, in trying to find out what is wrong...

"Hey man, I'm Steven and I live in downtown Charlottesville. I curently have one cat who's terribly loving and sweet and stays indoors. He's been very lonely since his brother passed a few months back and I'm trying to find Jinx a companion to try and mend his heart. If...
There are four beautiful female guinea pigs at the Charlottesville SPCA. I took them some veggies, hay and Oxbow pellets today. All four look to be about the same age, definately under a year old - probably much younger. Three are tri colored and one looks lilac with red eyes. They were...
On Monday I got two more guinea pigs from someone on craigslist. Mae is the female, she is white with a little black. Sebastian is brown with white. They are both long haired. She was spraying them with bronco fly spray for horses to get rid of lice. She had a ball for them to roll around...
Peppers back teeth had grown over so that she couldn't eat properly. I've had her to the vet and had them trimmed. She had lost a lot of weight rapidly due to the tooth problem. Now that she has had her teeth taken care of, she still is not eating well. She picks up her greens and acts like...
Cuddle Monster's teeth have grown back from the trim he had 3/21. I will be taking him back for another trim. The vet had mentioned that one option would to be removing his front teeth if they continued to be a problem. I have looked here and on guinea lynx and have been unable to find any...
I undoubtably have sucker written on my forehead. I stopped by the spca today to give an update on the dog I am fostering and as usual stopped to see if they have any guinea pigs. There were three. They had been abandoned near some canoes at a river!

Has any one heard of matua hay? I usually use the hay that I get for my horses for my guinea pigs too. I haven't been able to find much that makes sense to me about it except it is 17 - 22% protein.
I am curious to know what different shelter and rescue organizations offer with the adoption of guinea pigs. For example, when I worked at the spca their adoption contracts were geared toward dogs and cats. Spay and neuter were required of dogs and cats, but was unclear/not expected of guinea...

I am getting things together to build cages for my piggies. I am planning on having a second level for at least one of them and must have a top on all as I have cats. I have been looking at the various pictures, trying to see what supports second levels and tops. It makes sense to not block...
Hi. I am so glad to have found this forum. I have nine guinea pigs. Marci was adopted from the shelter where I was working. She was left outside the door in a box with about a dozen other guinea pigs. The box was so small that they were standing on top of each other. They were all covered...
