    Guinea Pig Cage

    Hello! How do you get a guinea pig’s cage to be less stinky? I clean out their cage and add new blankets everyday but it gets so stinky over night! I share a room with them so this is a bit of an issue.

    guinea pig not agree to exit from the cage

    Hay, I have two guinea pigs. They have been with me for a year and a half. They're just in a cage all the time, I can not get them to come out, and I'm really sad ... they live two years in a small cage. Every time I try to take them out, I have to take them out by hand (and they try to escape)...

    Ideas to protect a wall that’ll be next to a cage.

    So I’m putting a cage against two walls, since the wood price is higher this year I wanted to see if I could cut expenses and use something instead of wood to go against the walls so their poop, pee, etc. doesn’t get against it. (Like how the diy cage put wood where the cage will touch the...

    Temp cage

    I ordered for a C&C cage and I won’t arrive for at most a week. I’m planning to get a guinea pig some time early in the week and I need to put him in a cage temporarily so I have a small travel cage about 25” x 12” x 14”. Is this okay for just a temporary solution till I get the real cage?

    How can I secure my fleece down on a regular cage to prevent burrowing?

    Hi everyone, I just got a new fleece to line my cage but one of my piggies Madison keeps burrowing underneath it! Since it’s not a C&C cage I can’t clip it to anything and it fits the cage perfectly so can’t tuck it under/over anything. I’ve tried putting her bowl in one of the corners but she...

    Should I permanently separate my Boars?

    Hello, I'm new to this forum and as well as being a farely new Guinea Pig mom. I'm still trying to understand the behaviors but as I understood, it's recommended to separate Guinea Pigs if they draw blood. Well, I'm really hoping it doesn't have to come to that, but if it's for the better of my...
