    Guinea Pig's Ears appear Red and Irritated

    I was cleaning my boy's cage today and I noticed my Charlie's ears are redder than usual. Also more irritated and less fluffy than usual. Does anyone know why this could be the case? Is there anything I should do immediately? I've contacted my Vet and I'm awaiting their reply too. Thanks for...

    Help please!

    My piggy has a flaky ear. Could this be a fungal infection? His other ear looks fine. I want to take him to the vet anyways, but if anyone has any answers before the appointment i would love to know. Thank you ♡

    Guinea pig bond in trouble?

    Hello, I am a first time boar owner and have 2 boars that are almost 6 months old In general, they have been ok with each other I think except for the expected dominance behaviours- some of these have gotten quite intense but there was never any blood drawn or resource guarding so I left them...

    Is my Guinea pig satin?

    I am concerned because I’ve always noticed his coat was shiny. I really can’t tell if it’s just a healthy coat or if he is satin because of his dark fur. I got him from petco, not sure if they sell satins there. Am i being paranoid or could he be satin? Thank you ♡

    How to help lice until vet appointment

    We're just going through it over here. So, I lost my Guts today. And at the vets yesterday, she mentioned he had some lice. Which was surprising, considering they're indoor piggies, but it could have been an off bag of hay or a hospital stay I suppose. Either way, now my last boy, Bert has...

    Baby piggy drinking water constantly

    Hi everyone my baby piggy (not sure exactly how old he is), is drinking a lot of water compared to my other pig. Pretty much everytime i come downstairs to see them he is drinking water. Is this maybe a sign of diabetes? I have a vet appointment on Monday but just wanted to hear any insight.

    Weird guinea pig behavior/aggression?

    Hi I have these two female guinea pigs named Shrimp and Kiwi and I’m not sure if they’re getting along together or not. Shrimp is older by 2 weeks and she’s a lot bigger than Kiwi but it appears that Kiwi is more dominant and when Kiwi gets up into Shrimp’s face Shrimp looks upward as if to say...
