We are looking for a new home because our owners are moving and can't give us the attention and love we deserve. We're very sweet (and odd) guinea pigs who love to be held and will wheek for treats and our daily veggies! There are two of us, and we want to be kept together because we've been...

Here is our new 3x4 cage...we're working on making a second level, but the boys are perfectly happy with this! They were wheeking like crazy when we put them in there. You can see them munchin' on some lettuce. The tri-color is House and Wilson is one with the big butt. We have since taken the...

I need your guys' help! There's probably a really easy solution that I can't think of. :rolleyes: Here's the issue: We're building a 3x4 cage with a loft, so the inside measurements of the cage are a little bit less than 42" by 56". The coroplast sheet is 4 feet (48") by 8 feet (96"). The...

I've read numerous posts and pages on here, guinealynx, and on Oxbow and KM's sites, of how to store hay. I know to keep it in a cool, dry place and provide proper ventilation. My question is, what exactly do you store your hay in? The hay has to be kept in our living room (which is fine), but...

Hello, fellow cavy subjects!:p I know there's a thread out right now about veggies, but I had more specific questions about growing your own grass. Does any do so? I'm curious as to what kind, soil requirements, where you get the seeds from, etc. I bought some "cat grass" from Target that was...

I'm hoping someone can offer some insight into something that seems abnormal to me, and I can't find any info on it, even when I searched the forums here. My two male guinea pigs both have white smelly "goo" that tiny pieces of hay get stuck in around their anus and penis. I try to wipe some of...

Hello, all! Here's some pics of our boys. :D They have had three previous owners and were initially abused by a guy who raises guinea pigs as snake food. A woman adopted them, then she got a divorce and when she took them to the rescue we got them from, they had huge poop balls hanging on them...

Here's our cage: https://www.guineapigcages.com/photos/showphoto.php/photo/8393/cat/500/ppuser/7503 We're going to be expanding it soon, as I feel it's too small for them right now with the hay room. They can still run laps (and they sure do!), and they love the fleece with the mattress pad...

I'm not sure if this is in the right place, so I apologize in advance if it's not! Is there anyone in the Northern Virginia/Washington, D.C. area that's interested in having a pignic or piggie get-together sometime? I live in Manassas and would love to get to know other piggie owners in the...

I'm concerned about these bugs that we have in our apartment called House Centipedes. Don't click that link to wikipedia if you're creeped out easily! These buggers are heebie-jeebie inducing and eat other insects. They produce venom, which is what concerns me. What if they bite the piggies...

I'm toying with the idea of adopting 1-2 more piggies to join our 2 unneutered males. What would be best to add to our boys? I was thinking another male but I'm not so sure about that. (I'm pretty sure this post is ok in this area, but if not, I'm sorry!) Thanks for your advice in advance!

House, our Texel, has been losing some hair on his hindquarters and his eyes have been acting funny, so I took him to the vet this morning. I just got back and he has a corneal ulcer in his left eye. :sad: I gave him a haircut the other day and the vet was concerned that maybe I nipped his eye...

Our piggies have a 2x4 c&c cage. We used fleece for a while then decided to create a hay room. We have a coroplast divider so the hay room is 2x1 and the rest of the cage is 2x3. I'm concerned about this because they LOVE the hay room and House stays in there all the time! Also, I hate to make...

Hello everyone! I have two male piggies, and I am concerned about one of them. He weighs 840 grams, which seems small for a male piggie. When we adopted them at the beginning of July he weighed 996 grams...They have been fed a much better diet and gotten a LOT more exercise, as well as hair...
