i was being sarcastic about it not being destressing for them. seems so horrible for them to taken from place to place. i didnt know that about shelters. every shelter ive known here in England have been a no kill shelter. ive known small animals to be in a shelter for a very long time! sad...

How nice for the poor little animals being dumped from store to store to store until they are sold! thats not destressing at all for them!!! they should be taken to a shelter and adpoted out, a shelter wouldnt just put an animal down!

I love the books! im on book 4 at the moment but forced my friend to tell me some of what happens! hehe! im team Jacob all the way!!! love him!

I totally agree!! poor piggie! :( should never get a piggie, or any pet! unless you know 100% for can care for it 200%!

could you not have found a friend to take it? If your mum didnt want to return the piggie why couldnt you of least taken it to a shelter so the poor thing would have had more of a chance of a happy life! even it it would have cost £75! you could of just taken the cage and bits back to the store...

that poor piggie!! :(. hopefully it can go to a better home with someone who will look after it forever!! should have been giving to a shelter though! :(

i have a trio of 3 females and they are fine together! they do all like to be in charge but get on fine.

im not being horrible, but maybe people dont want to say they brought thier guinea pig from a pet shop as they dont want to be 'told off' for buying them at a pet shop. i know what lilsoilder means, BEFORE i joined this site i brought my 2 guineas from a pet shop, there is nothing at all wrong...

I have an Abyssinian Guinea and she HATES being brushed!!! she jumps around like a looney when i try to brush her!! although when my partner brushes her she stays still for longer! but when i try she gets the hump with me!! she has a cows lick aswell, which is really cute but im thinking about...

I know how you feel! when i first bathed my two guineas it was such a job! i have one longed hair guinea (Sandy) and one short haired guinea (Pinky) Sandy was the one that needed the bath but i thought i might aswell give Pinky one aswell. so i put a little water in the bath and put nice warm...

i now have three guinea pigs, and my older two lick me all the time!! esp on my face for some reason! they are the same with people they know holding them! they are fed all the time with loads of hay and veggies everyday. i agree with dave 423 aswell. my guineas are constantly eating and always...

Hi thanks for replying. I use one layer of towel and one layer of fleece. maybe i should use two layers of towels? the mattress pads sound very good so i will try them aswell. They dont really have a potty area they just go where ever i think! so i always sweep it all out everyday. i gave...

Hi. Thanks for repling. At the moment I have an old towel underneath but only one layer. maybe I should use 2 or 3? or the mattress pad sounds like a good idea. The fleece im using is 100% Polyester the fleece doesnt seem too smell it seems to stay on the guinea, she is long haired and it...

Hi there. after reading all the messages on here about fleece i decided to give it a go. i brought some fleece and washed it about 3-4 times first. (no softner) ive got 2 female guineas and they seem to really like it and were pop corning when i put them in the cage with it. on of my...
