Guinea Pigs are pending pickup and they havent had to spend any time outside :)

UPDATED: HAVE TO GO ASAP my mom is going to have to set their cage outside - on the covered porch out of sun and rain of course (I do not live with them they are my sisters and I cannot take them).

oh thats a good idea with the storage container. I do have a couple of hammocks for them and some cuddle sacks

In a couple weeks I am getting a hairless rat. I currently have 2 fancy rats. I have a ferret nation 2 story cage (hardware cloth wrapped around so nobody can squeeze through) I use fleece bedding. Just needing any extra care tips so I know what supplies I might need to pick up ahead of time...

yea thats why I avoided males both human and animal tend to be on the smelly side haha

thanks I actually use fleece with my guinea pigs so I do know how to use it. I have had one girl for 3 weeks and havent had any problems with smell. I am hoping to get a second soon it has just been a bit difficult to find one with the coloring I wanted.

I generally like females better. Normally have a sweeter disposition and usually less smelly. Though I usually prefer geldings when it comes to horses.

I haven't heard roans having any more health problems than any other color of guinea pigs. And not all white guinea pigs have problems only the lethal ones. Also it is dangerous for any guinea pig to breed it is not just color/breed specific. Breeding is discouraged because it is really...

good idea ill try that. I just dont want a couple rats running free in my apartment haha

I got a ferret kingdom cage for free. I know the bar spacing is too big (7/8 inch) but I would like to make this cage work. I plan on getting two female rats young, I know they could escape out of it so is there anything I can do to escape proof the cage before I get the rats? I have another...

I don't know if anyone else had problems looking at the ad but it showed me an error screen. Couldn't find it when I went to the Guinea Pig Zone either. @bpatters

Can't say I agree with that. The last two dogs I got from a shelter had problems...one had mange and the other got parvo within a week of me taking her home (spent over 350 in the two weeks that followed)

I got a sugar glider a few years back unexpectedly on a trip and the hotel didn't allow pets. My family and I put a DO NOT DISTURB sign on the door and kept him in a room with the door shut (it was a big hotel room with like 3 or 4 rooms). If you have the choice to get a hotel that allows pets...

I agree the application can be a pain. I've adopted several animals from shelters and each one's process is a little different. The problem I have is they ask all these questions but I have NEVER had anyone follow up, to me it seems pointless that way because I could easily lie and they would...

shows error message when I tried the link

Yea I'm not worried about a few holes I just didn't want to have to completely replace fleece weekly because of holes, and they will have a lot of toys because I know they need a lot of amusement. How often do you all wash your fleece?

I'm sure that would be ok for a couple weeks of course there are are more experienced people on here than me. Might want to check craigslist too might find one cheaper there

I am planning on adopting 2 female rats (craigslist or rescue) at the end of October/beginning of November after me and my boyfriend move into a new place. The only problem he has with any animal is smell (I have 4 piggies and a 2x8 cage, hermit crabs, and a dog so he clearly has no problem with...

Right? That is exactly what I thought when I read the post

I think it should be enough space for two girls as long as they got along well. I don't think a loft would be recommended because the ramp would take too much space. If you have room to expand you'd be surprised how much bigger a 2x5 would seem compared to a 2x4 but it isn't necessary to expand...
