    Pigsitting Who to get to pig-sit and tips

    Thank you so much for all of your help, the vacation is over now and it was great to think that my babies were taken care of! The only issue I had was when my dad thought it would be a good idea to take our dog and leave the bird and piggies to come back and help the night before we left meaning...

    Pigsitting Who to get to pig-sit and tips

    Thanks so much for all of your help and sorry for the late response, I read those posts the day that you posted them but I haven't had time to reply. allisonj30, I would prefer to take them to a vet's office or local guinea pig animal shelter as those are very responsible and knowledgeable...

    Pigsitting Who to get to pig-sit and tips

    My entire family is going on vacation to the beach in a couple of weeks and I have 12 guinea pigs that I don't know what to do with. I can't bring them with me because of the space they take up and I don't know what else to do. I was going to call our vet's office and see if one of the...

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    ANOTHER UPDATE: Turns out, the local store has coastal bermuda grass hay in bales. The man who worked there let us grab a chunk to try out yesterday and so far it's been 24 hours and there has been no change. He sold 30 pound bales for $7 which was a great price for us! My dad just bought a...

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    UPDATE: She has been in our bathroom with just a hay cube, her pellets, a few toys, and one of our girls, Bubbles, since Monday evening (9:00 EST). So it's been 38 hours. I left her in there last night just in case she needed more time to get the dust out of her system but I don't want to leave...

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    Thanks! I've been a guinea pig owner for over 1yr now and I understand a lot about them but I just joined the forums (although I have read stuff on here before and really admire you piggie fans!).

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    Ok. So first we try the hay cubes. If it gets worse or stays the same, it means it's an allergy to timothy hay and we need to try something else. Hay from KMS hayloft is less expensive than pet store hay (hopefully it stays that way in eastern Georgia) so I will try to ask my dad if he can buy...

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    First I think it's important to point out that I am a minor who cannot even drive. So anything I do has to be approved by my parents. She doesn't wheeze all the time (at least not enough to hear her 6 ft away) but when it's quiet in the house and peaceful and she's relaxed, you can hear it more...

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    That's the only solution that there really is. Plenty of other people on the forums have pigs with allergies or have that possibility. I'm not exactly asking what it is but rather how to help it or make her more comfortable as I'm 88% sure that it's not URI and it is allergies.

    Wheezing Guinea pig allergies?

    Hi! I'm new to the forums but have had guinea pigs for 1 year, have had up to 13 in the past, and currently have 11. Lots of mine have had problems (medically) but only minor ones that I understood and have been taken care of. However I am struggling with this one and need help. One of my pigs...
