    Blog Simple pleasures of guinea pig ownership...

    Cage Midwest Guinea Pig Habitat Review

    Okay, I got my new cage today and so far I'm pretty happy with it. I don't think it'd be perfect for everyone, but it has some good features. So here is the run down: Pros Easy to assemble (Took about 5 minutes) Light-weight (Easy to move around) Portable Conventient (no shopping around to...

    Capybaras at the Zoo

    My kids and I made our first zoo trip of the year, yesterday and I got some great pictures of the capybara. Normally, they just kind of lay around (remind you of any other animal?) but this time they were really active!

    C&C cage and daycare

    I have two kids, ages 4 and 7, who are homeschooled, and I'm considering watching another child (age 1 to 3) on a regular basis for some extra money. I have a very small living area and the only place for my cage is in my livingroom. What I'm wanting to know is if you think the parents would be...

    Freedom of Speech Clarification

    I'm really not trying to pick fights or single anyone out. I do like being a member here. But, I'm confused, what is the "policy" on freedom of speech? Since my posted was deleted (which I understand why it was. It wasn't appropriate on the orginal thread), I'm going to re-ask my question...

    Found Grids at Pamida

    I found 9x9 grids at Pamida ((broken link removed)); they're just like the old target ones. I found out about them in their weekly flyer ((broken link removed)) and they're on sale for $17.99! Saved me an hour drive to Target or Bed, Bath, and Beyond. :D

    Tootsie Roll - Let the work began

    Long story short, my niece was given a guinea pig by her grandma (against her mother's wishes) that she got from a relative know for not taking care of her animals. My sister-in-law called me right away, complaining about the nasty critter her mom dropped off. (She's really an animal lover...

    Hay Not eating hay/Eating Bedding!

    I'm not sure what to do! Haku is not eating his hay. My little girl, Sen, eats a large handful every day. It's a great quality grass hay so I know that's not the problem. But, every time I check on Haku he's eating his kiln-dried pine bedding. :mad: I've tired putting it in his house, loose in...

    Is my pig just a...pig?

    I got my new sow on the 4th and I've noticed her stomach looks a little large. She approx. 6 weeks old and was only housed with females (no pregnancy). Anyway, she's been eating really well, about 25 grams of pellet/day, unlimited hay (I have a grass/alfalfa blend, mostly grass though), about...

    Hidey House and Bonding

    My new guinea pigs (I've had less then a week), never come out of their houses until it's all quiet in the house (late at night). They won't even come out to eat/drink. I was putting their food dishes in with them and also filling the houses (cardboard boxes actually) with hay. My question is...

    Hay Got my hay; I'm so happy!

    I didn't realize how hard it would be to find hay in rural Wisconsin, but I've got it! It smells amazing, is fresh (baled less than 2 weeks ago), and so soft! I know my piggies are going to love it. I just need to get the piggies now! LOL (Picking them up on Friday!!!) I know two bales is a...

    Diet Pellets, Water, Veggies Question

    Hi, I've been lurky on this site for about a year now; gathering as much information as possible before deciding if guinea pigs are appropirate for my family or not. I think that I've made this right decision (we don't have any guinea yet), but I did have a few questions first. I understand...
