piggies

Hello all, we had to do piggie bowl time to weigh our two girls today, we are new to this and a lot of things I have read say they are overweight for their age (11 weeks) is this true and should I cut down their food? Thankyou :))🤍

Haven't been here much lately, being a guinea pig mama keeps you real busy. Just wanted to share a couple pics of Chip and Chuck, our latest additions to our family. Been about 2 months since we got them and they're adjusting really well. Had lice when we brought them home from the rescue but a...

I'm thinking of getting guinea pigs, but i go to church every sunday. I don't know if my church is pet friendly and i know i can't take them out every week. Should i leave them at home, or find a way to bring them with me?

We went on an adventure on Sunday. I didn’t have a basket so I made one from the boys’ second level of their cage🤣 they were a bit hesitant on the bike ride but loved being in the grass at the park on a picnic with my human children 🖤🖤🖤🐹🐹

My name is Hannah and I own 4 guinea pigs. Recently one of my guinea pigs has been acting strangely. She makes what seems to be a forced squeaking sound. When she uses the restroom she lays in it and gets it all over herself. She's become aggressive towards my other female guinea pig which she...

I had 2 brothers woody and buzz, they were 5 and both showing signs of old age. Unfortunately we lost Woody (he went very quickly dying of old age) Buzz is doing ok, his survival instincts have kicked in, he's very quiet but i'm giving him attention daily etc. I know I should get him a mate as...

Okay so I think I found a cage that will work but I don’t trust myself so can the pig experts here tell me if this cage looks okay for two guinea pigs (who get along not as well I hoped they would yet sometimes manage)? It looks divided to me but can someone make sure? ;-; Thank you! <3

My adorable hamster is getting quite old and is nearing the end of his life in maybe the next six months. Although I love him so much and would never want him to die, I have been thinking about getting another pet after he crosses the rainbow bridge. My parents have been considering a cat, which...

Hi! I've had my two boys, Finn and Parker, for about a month and a half. They're settling in well. They've recognized my footsteps and wheek when I come up the stairs with food, I play ukulele for them every single night and they seem to really enjoy that (does anybody want to see a video of...

Hi! I recently adopted two guinea pigs, Finn and Parker. Finn is cream and white, Parker is black, white and cream. Here is them in their travel cage when we were preparing to take them home! They're three months old. I put them in their cage. They won't come out of their little hut so I put...

We had a late spring here in Ireland and most of the livestock (sheep/cattle) are only being let out to pasture in the past couple of weeks due to the poor grass growth. Thankfully, the grass is finally bursting into growth. Last week, I began picking fresh grass from the garden for the...

Over the summer i plan in making a little garden for the piggies and was wondering what some good options are. I was thinking about marigolds, nasturtiums, and teddy bear sunflowers. If there is possibly more I could add to their garden, or if i should not get them one of the 3 i planned on...

Hello everyone! Recently, (after spending a night sleepless every 2 weeks or so) I started wondering about the possible reasons for chirping (bird sounds) in guinea pigs. As is well-known, only a relatively small subset of all GPs produce this sound, and it always seem to occur at night...
