    Charlie just gave me a scare!

    It is probably just "Heaving hiccups". This is where something has "gone down the wrong way". The guinea pig will heave up as though it is about to vomit, only it is far more violent and traumatic than the same kind of thing seen in humans. The whole body rocks forward, and I have even seen a...

    Rabbits and Guinea Pigs

    Just a quick question. Is it ok/safe to have a rabbit free-range in the house (rabbit proofed of course) and guinea pigs safe in their cage? Can they pass illnesses to each other? Any information about this set up would be appreciated. :) Thanks

    Going to a rescue today!

    Thanks everyone. He is settling in really well now, so much so that he is eating from my hand and walking up to the side of the cage whenever I walk past expecting more food :) He can also hear the girls wheeking when its veggie time. His head goes up and looks in great concentration trying to...

    I also use fleece, but then under each hidey I lay down a kitchen hand towel which I change everyday (sometimes twice a day). This helps them to stop sleeping in wet patches all the time and also keeps the fleece underneath quite dry.
