    Behavior Please help. My piggies are positively terrified of me.

    I spot clean my piggie's cage once a day, or every two days if they haven't been too messy. But, mine have a litter box and they do some of their business in there. At first they were terrified of me cleaning the cage. They would run if I even approached the cage. Fast forward about six...

    Update on my cat

    So sorry to hear about the loss of your kitty. I'm sure he lived a great life with you because the fact that you were willing to go through so much to give him meds and make him comfortable says alot about you as a kitty parent. Sending you good vibes ❤️ And on a side note, your dog is too...

    Joy If your piggy could talk...

    Grindelwald would say (to his brother Albus): "Would you PLEASE quit rumblestrutting your butt in my face?!?" Albus would say (to me): "Can't catch me! Can't catch me! Give up human! Can't catch me! Nope, never gonna catch me!" And then both of them them would demand bell peppers and timothy...

    Grids Ripped off??

    Next time you need more grids check out your nearest Bed Bath and Beyond. I found mine at BBB for $20 and they came with about 20 grids. I used a 20% off coupon and got them for $16+tax. That was the best deal I could find anywhere.

    Joy VIDEO: Bernie is a brat and LOVES GLASSES. :D

    Fortunately, not yet. He's not quite as persistent as your piggy is. He likes to chew on my thicker earrings (my earlobes are 8 gauge), but thankfully doesn't pull. Otherwise....ouch!!

    Media Guys with guinea pigs?

    Thank you! I bought it about a month ago, but went back about two weeks ago to get more and it was gone. :( Maybe your location will have some, or maybe on their website. It was on the clearance table when I purchased it. Good luck!

    Joy VIDEO: Bernie is a brat and LOVES GLASSES. :D

    So adorable!!! My piggies don't go for my glasses, but one of them loves to go for my earrings. I have multiple piercings and he just starts chomping away at them, which makes his whiskers tickle my neck, which ends up in uncontrollable laughter from me, and weird looks from him :crazy:

    Media Guys with guinea pigs?

    That counts Aleks :) My partner and I are not guys, but we are more into guy stuff than girl stuff. We both love our piggies. They've got us wrapped around their little paws. If my partner is on the couch watching tv, I'm willing to bet money there is a pig in her lap. @theguineapigguy And as...

    Mites Question about piggy mites

    So, based on the wonderful information that I have read on these forums, I have come to the conclusion that my piggie, Albus, has mites. He has scratched the back of his left ear raw. I am ordering Ivermectin "pour on" online for him, but it will be a few days before it gets here. (the only...

    Fleece Pure Fleece TRUTH!!! Needed please.

    My piggies loooove their fleece. I made their cage a few weeks ago and they both popcorned so high when I put them in it! They started running around and didn't know what to do with themselves. I also have a small area of carefresh that I use in a litterbox/food box. I keep their hay and water...

    Male Guinea Pig (Id like to find a new home for him) Chilton, WI

    My two boys are going through the same thing right now. They are both about 5 months old and are trying to assert their dominance. Actually, one already has (Albus), and I think the other (Grindy) is just tired of the rumblestrutting and other dominant behaviors. Sometimes Grindy fights back as...

    General Which names do you prefer?

    I looove this idea! I'm partial to the harry potter names. My boys are Albus and Grindelwald. Add to their names, but don't change them completely! :)

    Joy You know you've been pigged when.....

    Today my husband got hit by car

    So sorry to hear that this has happened to you and your husband. I hope he has a speedy and uncomplicated recovery. Positive vibes from me and nose nudges and whisker tickles from my piggies to you both :)

    General Saying hello and needing naming help

    Your piggies are totally cute!! Welcome back :) I don't really have name suggestions for you, since it took me weeks to name my own pigs. However, once I finally did name them, I named them Albus and Grindelwald because I am a huge Harry Potter geek. So, maybe you can think of a movie or show...

    @MissJean Thank you! They keep me on my toes. I love watching them interact with each other :) Better than slapstick!!

    Vegetables Cucumber seeds?

    Thanks for the feedback! I guess I'm just being too careful. These little piggies have me wrapped around their little paws. I've been cutting out the majority of the seeds after I slice them up, but its a pain. If I can just slice and feed, it will make life much easier.
