I ran out of hay today. I went to the store and the store was also out of hay. I ordered doordash from a further away store that I can't get to, but it won't be here until 10pm to 12am, which is still about 6-8 hours away. Will they be ok with just pellets until then?

It's pretty adorable! They're short. The first two episodes are out already. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agatWW45pK8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQicZA-bU9A

Anyone have any recommendations? I need something that is too small for a cat to stick their paw through.

We have barriers around the guinea pig cage to keep the cats away, but today I saw one of my kitten had squeezed his paw in and swatted at one of my guinea pigs. I quickly moved the cat but he still made contact. My piggy squeaked and started chattering his teeth. I took him out of the cage and...

I have a guinea pig.. he's still a baby. But he's very nippy. I've never really had a problem with biting with my other two guinea pigs, but he bites a lot.

I had to put my beautiful 2 year old baby to sleep today. I won't be ok for a long time.

My guinea pig has been to the vet so many times in the two years I've had him. Mostly bladder infections. Meanwhile my other guinea pig has been healthy the entire time. Anyway, he's been on bactrim for a while now because he had a bladder infection that kept coming back as soon as I took him...

So I accidentally bought rabbit pellets. The pet stores are shut for tonight and I won't be able to get guinea pig pellets until after work tomorrow. Are rabbit pellets safe for them to have? I had it in their cage with them before I noticed and they don't seem to be reacting badly but I removed...

My guinea pigs have been living together for 2 years now. They mostly get along, there's some scuffles here and there which are mostly a lot of squeaking and pushing. But two days ago they got into a really big fight. It seemed like their usual argument with pushing and squeaking, but it went on...

Every so often my guinea pig has been making mysterious high pitched whines. It sounds like he's in pain. I took him to his usual vet and the vet checked him over and said he looked okay, no injuries. I'm worried about him. I've checked him over several times and nothing looks wrong to me...

I've had my guinea pigs for a year and a half and I don't know what to make of this. Sugar forgot how to drink from the water bottle he's been drinking from all his life. When he puts his mouth on it he puts it too far up. The water bottle has not changed position. He keeps trying to get water...

(broken link removed) Got this toy for them. It's called Twine n Dine. They seem to like it, but is it safe for them? Anyone else have experience with these?

Not sure what to do, or if it's a cause for concern. I put their food in two different bowls, and I have hay scattered all throughout the cage. In theory, they both should be able to eat without being bothered by the other. Sugar, the heavier one, tends to sit around a bit more than Spice, but...

Sugar was always a more skittish guinea pig than Spice. Spice has his shy moments too but he at least lets me pet him a little bit, Sugar watches my every move and if my hand even gets close enough to pet him he runs. When I first got him, he was starting to open up to me a little when I would...

I was checking Sugar to see if everything is good, but when I was looking, it looks like one of his testicles are almost deflated? It's a lot skinnier and smaller than the other. But then I was looking at Spice and he seems to be having the same issue (if it is an issue). I don't know what to...

I really can't tell. It looks like it might be absorbing but I have no idea if it's absorbing the way it's supposed to be or not. Sorry to be gross, but here's a picture of a spot where they did their business about half an hour ago: Does that look normal? Or is it not working?

I'm making the switch to fleece soon, I already have the fleece bedding ready, but I'm waiting to use up the paper bedding I have for them before I switch. But now I'm thinking the timing is bad, they seem to be getting hot even with the paper bedding, Spice keeps digging through it to get to...

Saw this toy: (broken link removed) and thought maybe it will be a better alternative to the timothy hay tunnel. They LOVE the tunnel but it's falling apart not too long after I got it. Are the twigs safe?

Normally my two get along pretty well. I mean sometimes they annoy each other by poking each other's butts or mounting behavior, but after I cleaned out their cage this morning they've been fighting the entire time. And it's not like usual, they're getting in each other's faces and one of them...

My guinea pigs used to sit quietly for lap time when I first got them. But now whoever I leave in the cage inevitably starts wheeking and then the one in my lap gets riled up and starts trying to escape. I live in a fairly small apartment so there's no where I can go where one won't hear the...
