OMG! That is just adorable! He's the same colour as my guinea pig buccaneer and all :)

Hello and welcome to the forum! It sounds like your at least a bit more prepared than your friend and have done your research, so well done! Truffles is a beautiful name, for an equally beautiful guinea pig :D

I think you should continue using the betadine, as there may not be any results for a few more days. It doesn't look to have improved a whole lot, but we'll wait and see.

Some beautiful guinea pigs in those pictures... Great markings! The one in the first few pictures looks about three quarters or more teddy and a small mix of something else. Shes lovely all the same!

Hi, Almost all guinea pigs will get white spots, no matter their diet. In the picture, there appears to be a healthy amount of calcium deposits. I have had far worse, so I don't think there is anything to worry about. If you can, feel the dried calcium spots and check if it is gritty, or...

You can't (as far as I know) get Uhaul pads in the UK and Ireland. There are a couple of alternatives though. You can buy a large pack of puppy pads which act the same way as Uhaul pads. You can also put towels under your fleece to absorb the pee.

Its entirely up to you whether you want to move the kitchen downstairs. If you actually see them going up to the kitchen to eat and drink, there's probably nothing to worry about. But if you feel they dislike going up, you could always move the kitchen downstairs and make a bedroom area upstairs.

My guinea pigs came with their names: Buccaneer and Ling. I thought the names suited and were cute, so they stuck :)

One of my guinea pigs likes to 'knead' on my lap. You know the way when a cat comes across something soft like a blanket, it will lift its paws up and down? Thats what my guinea pig buccaneer does!

I get my two out for about five minutes each in the evening per day. Neither of them mind it terribly... Its just when they are being picked up that the storm starts!!!

Yay! New guinea pigs :) Definitely call them peach, daisy and zelda! Coolest trio of names ever.

I recommend getting a dustpan and brush, if you don't already have one. It makes cleaning up the cage so much easier! Also save up some cardboard boxes and cut out two entrances for the piggies to go through :) Instant hit!

I'd just recommend to do exactly as others have said, and hopefully she won't squeeze through any more! I love your cage and fleece @Brandi0509!

Exactly @asnnbrg... The adrenaline stops the pain for a short time, allowing the animal to get away.

I know what you mean @bguardguy... Are they stupid or something *coughmentalhealthproblemscough*

Just saw it. What a sweetie pig!

I have to agree with @Paula... If you did win, other members might be a little put out because it might have been due to this thread, and they had their pictures up longer yet you got more likes.

As well as what the others said, maybe there is a problem with his teeth? Pull up his top lip when he is on your lap and make sure the two pairs of front teeth are even, and a good length. I have taken to checking my piggies teeth every day as I'm paranoid of them breaking their teeth!!!

I have an alternative cage, and I have a fitted waterproof table cloth under my fleece. I have no sides what so ever, and in my opinion its perfectly fine, so I suggest you go for it :)

Ah yes, you need a schedule to keep you on track. I find that the pigs begin to take more days off than they should be without a timetable! Mine got a good scolding (not really) when they started up that pompous!
