Hello everyone! I have 2 female guinea pigs, 2½ & 2 years old. Since recovering from medical problems they have brought me as well as my older sons & husband a great deal of companionship and love. I liked the C&C cages but as a woodworker I wanted a slightly different look so I built them a cage similar to a C&C 2x6. They are centrally located in our home and often have their door open as they have love to explore the living room. I can post pics... I think I saw a thread (?). Now... I dearly love these little ones, we snuggle & yes, even occasionally nap together, however I noticed a ‘bump’ which later became 3 bumps after an hour drive to an animal hospital that specializes in small animal surgery which then turned into a $1400 surgery to remove 3 encapsulated lumps & a hysterectomy. Coming up with $ will be a struggle as we are in the process of moving however I am determined to ‘figure it out’.
—Let me stop by saying... if someone knows where I should ask this question could you please direct me?? It turns into a moral/ethical dilemma especially as many years ago I was a vet tech and assisted with surgeries.
ANYHOW... I would love to post pics, my little ones are Petey (Petra) & Juno and they are very loved and cared for! They even run around to extremely calm dogs. I love this community and am eager to be a part of it!
