Hi everyone. So when I first got guinea pigs, i knew they were a lot of hard work and with school, i thought i could balance the two out. But after 8 months of cleaning and veggies everyday, i feel stressed and sleep-depreived, trying to balance school, pigs, and me time isnt working. Ive been...

I ended up buying three sets, but just a bit at a time, since it really is expensive. The fleece store that guinea pig cages store also has gives out these "wheekly deals" and you can sometimes get discounts, and so I waited for those. I also think the uhaul is comfy for the piggies also. I have...

Ah! Well when I do my weekly cage cleaning, i vacuum a decent amount of hair up while vacuuming up poos, then i shake my fleece liner in my cage to shake off any remaining poos, and some hair falls off that way too, and I vacuum it up then. Usually there isn't much hair left on it, then i wash...

I know this seems bad haha, but I take my fleece liners to the public washer and dryer(is that how you spell that lol?) place. I never have to brush mine though, the washer usually gets all the hair out.

I have Uhaul fleece because I have never heard of Zorb lining before haha. I know its not what answer you are looking for, but i will share my Uhaul fleece opinions, and hopefully someone with Zorb will come along! A.) As far as I can tell, Uhaul is really good at absorbing. There is never any...

Has the dog barked at them or anything? My two chihuahuas were interested in my piggies when i first got them, but then they got used to them and now the pigs are more interested in the dogs than the dogs are of them! For the dog and the piggies to get used to each other, you could get one out...

Hello piggy moms and dads! I'm thinking about making a new diet for my piggies. And I would like to know what you guys feed your piggies everyday. I know lettuce and bell pepper are a nessecity, but everything else I'm kinda at a loss. Please share and thanks for commenting!😊

I had no idea i was feeding too many herbs. All the websites that I have read say you can fedd your piggies cilantro everyday and parsley 2-4 times a week, so thanks everyone! My girls are only 8-10 months old, so I don't think the extra calcium effected them too much. Thanks everyone for the...

Its also very hard to get good veggies for piggies, my local grocers dont have much selection!

Hi! Before I get started on veggies, I just want to tell you my piggies complete diet. They get unlimited water (fresh from a local spring system with untreated and really good water, you always have to wait in line!) They get 1/2 of cup of pellets (1/8 cup for each piggy, I have four)...

I just crushed up the pellet and put it on her lettuce, after doing that for a couple of days, i gave one to her just plain and she ate half of it then stopped. Im still working with her, but it worked!

Hi, so my piggies usually get 1/8th of a bell pepper then got an Oxbow VitaminC treat. But now the oxbow treat changed (its more flat?) And now one of my piggies wont even touch it. Ive noticed that the calcium is high on the treats too. So i would like to ask how much calcium does an adult...

Thanks everyone! Great tips :)

Thank you! I would never have thought of that. I am in the progress of making a piggy room to run around in, so that would be perfect. Thanks:)

Hi! I have a long haired female piggy named Flurry. Its time for her 6 month old bath! One thing I have noticed about her is that she is super jumpy when you touch her, especially around the bum area! I know its natural, but even wrapping her up in a towel to brush her bum area is a nightmare. I...

Hi! First off i reccomend always getting the Oxbow brand, it is natural and super safe for piggies! Definitely get Oxbow pellets, hay, treats, and anything else you can think of. I have fleece hideaways and tunnels that i got from the guinea pig cages fleece store, but they are expensive and...

Hi! I am a proud piggy momma of four 6 and 7 month old female guinea pigs in a 2x6 grid cage (with 2x2 loft). I am in junior high with a lot of homework, and by the time I get home, eat, and do homework, its time to do my daily cleaning of the piggy cage at 6. By the time I get their cage done...
