    Sad I took them back and now I’m not sure what to do

    So I’ve posted a couple times about possible ringworm on our guinea pigs. I contacted the store and they said they’ll take the guinea pigs back, take them to the vet, treat them, and then give them back to us once they’re healthy. The person who will be caring for them sounds like a good person...

    General Does ringworm or other fungal infections usually come back?

    I posted earlier about my Guinea pigs and their skin. We just got them and I’ve been using the antifungal cream on them. I’m worried that if we get rid of whatever is going on that the fungal infection will come back again. I can’t let me kids get infected again! One child has ringworm on her...

    Skin Problems Possible ringworm

    Thank you. Do you have any idea by looking at the pictures of what the best treatment would be? I actually was looking at that website this morning and picked up a clomitrazol cream. I was also looking online at the duravet pour on treatment for mites thinking perhaps I should treat them for...

    Here are pictures of both guinea pigs. I hope this works! I had so much trouble uploading them.

    Skin Problems Possible ringworm

    I think the guinea pigs have ringworm. My daughter got it on her hand and I noticed the guinea pigs are scratching behind their ears and had some flakey spots and scabs around their ears and one of them by her eye. We are using ringworm cream on our daughter but I’m freaking out because I’ve...

    Hiding How long should we wait to start holding her?

    It’s day 3 with our new piggie and she’s still hiding. We have been trying to give her space. We’ve only held her the first day for a few minutes when taking her out of the carrier box to put her in her habitat and then today for a couple minutes when I was cleaning the cage and putting in a new...

    Fleece Lookig for advice from people who made their own fleece liners

    What a great and informative reply. Thank you! Before I saw your comment I gave it another try. I layered the fabrics in the order of fleece, fleece, mattress protector, towel and sewed it all together but this time with the towel side down (instead of fleece side down like I had tried before)...

    New here :)

    Hello everyone! I’m new to this forum. My family and I just got our little guinea pig a couple days ago and are getting her a friend this week 🙂 I had them when I was younger and loved them so I’m very excited to have guinea pigs again and share this experience with my kids. So far our new baby...

    Fleece Lookig for advice from people who made their own fleece liners

    Thank you. It’s a waterproof mattress protector with a very thin, almost nonexistent cushioning. I guess I could try making it without the bottom layer of fleece. I just thought it looked nicer and that’s how I saw it done on a YouTube video, but she didn’t have the towel in the video because...

    Fleece Lookig for advice from people who made their own fleece liners

    Hey everyone. So this is mainly a sewing question but I’m hoping there’s some people out there who have made their own fleece liners that can help. I’d like to make a liner that consist of these layers in this order: fleece, towel, mattress protector, fleece. It’s quite thick but I’m hoping it...
