Re: Weird issue, suddenly scared? Well, if he is perfectly healthy after his vet check I would recommend you to give his cage a good clean so you can have a inspection of that area. You might want to be careful incase you miss any clues (bugs etc). Pigs on the side won't usually frighten a...

Here's some ways to prevent URI :) Causes of Upper Respiratory Infections in Guinea Pigs - Yahoo! Voices - voices.yahoo.com I've never had this happen before so all I can do is read and learn.

Aw, thanks :) I think all piggies are cute, including yours :D. MochaAndMoo - I'd actually love to get a rex g.p, I was going to but then decided on another. :)

this is hammi, sorry the pictures got deleted. this is piggy I'm sorry, I feel that this forums editing system for photos is so frustrating :sad:

Hello! As I promised, I got Hammi a friend. Hammi is 6~months old and his new friend (No name yet, I'll just call him piggy for now) is 3 months. Both male. I don't really think there is a dominance issue just Hammi showing so much affection to the new piggy. I think it's adorable but piggy...

Hello :) I recently got a companion for my guinea pig. They were acting similar to your description and I might be able to help. Firstly my first piggy probably hasn't seen another guinea pig for awhile so he was definitely excited. He purred a lot when introduced to the new piggy and tried to...

I just found out that Hammi is eating... Just not food. his eating his own poop 0_O I find the very bizarre since I've never seen my piggies eat their own poop before.

Oh, their location is an hour and half away... I don't think I can do multiple trips but I'll try it once :)

I have but he doesn't like it.

Thanks :) but I have a slight problem... He really likes his grass and the outdoors, but for his safety I decided to let him free roam in the bathroom. He didn't look like he enjoyed it or he was simply a bit stressed making him not want to eat anything and he didn't poop for the whole day...

Hello everyone :) thank you all for your replies! MochaAndmoo- I bought a pack of 8 grids for $20, it is relatively expensive for just storage cubes but as a cage it is cheaper than the pet shops. There are a lot of breeders in my area who build their own hutches etc and sell for $50~ it's...

Hi MochaAndMoo! I have to say, thank you so much for the advice I got on my other tread :D and this thread! I will definitely try this tomorrow since 8) it is 1:30am right now haha. Buntings here usually have it in stock but it's not popular (where I live) but there are plenty of cavy owners...

Hello, I was able to adopt an adorable guinea pig today from the shelter :) His name is Hammi (so original :tearsofjo) and he is 6 months. He is actually quite interesting as he is a short haired guinea pig but has really long back hair like a rats tail (on humans). His coat is very rough unlike...

Hello! I am new to the site but I will probably be on more regularly as it's very useful :) I might post another on the introductory forum when I get photos of my cavy. For all Australian residents I know that most of this week (and weeks to come) will probably be over 25 degrees which will...
