Pros: Adorable, fun, easy to care for, cute to watch, cheap to afford, friendly and small. Cons: Require hay which some are allergic to, need to be watched with dogs or cats (especially my house I keep them separate). That's just my opinions and not all people with allergies are allergic to all...
Good to know thanks! Yes you can buy hay a lot cheaper, I plan to order online or even buy a bale from a local farm. but that's just what I picked up yesterday. My piggy was unexpected as she was a rescue and the other piggies in the cage were picking on her so I agreed to home her :) So I just...

Hello, I am needing to pick up some pellets for my new pig as I bring her home today or tomorrow. I already have a good Timothy hay. I need the pellets to be at either Petsmart or Petco for this time around. I can happily order online later if anyone knows of a good online variety. At Petco I...

My name is Mary and I am actually not new to this forum! I used to be a member here about 10 years ago when I was a teenager. I had a c&c cage then and only 1 guinea pig as my mama would only allow 1 then. I know there are likely all different members here now. I do...
