Hello All,
Please don't get me wrong, I'm not saying this site doesn't have great ideas, but I was browsing around to see if any other sites had some good info on toys, accessories ect. I came across a site that just about knocked me off my chair at the things said there. For example. "Guinea Pigs are great first pets for kids and are happy to settle down in thier laps." "mineral Wheels are a great way to keep teeth from getting to long." Nut and fruit bars are a great treat for piggies!!!!
To top it all off this :
[font=Arial,Helvetica][size=-1]The rolling balls that they make for hamsters to run around in can also be used for guinea pigs. BUT they have differently sized balls for hamsters and guinea pigs. The bigger balls are for the guinea pigs - $10[/size][/font]
I don't belive this person is knowledgeable enough to put a site like this up.
I have included a link for the pic of a cage on her/his site. Not a bad size but she/he used CHICKED WIRE!!!! with nothing to protect the piggies (ie coroplast for 6 inches up.

I'm so ticked off. I would email her/him but Im not a "well known rescuer" such as Cavy-Spirit, so I don't think I'd be taken seriously.
