    Weird Behavior

    My oldest gp Beans is acting every strangely. I came home to see him in his cage, lying down and then getting up, making a weird movement, itching himself, and laying back down. He only lays down for about 10 seconds before he gets back up again. He also isn't interested in treats or hay. Why...

    Lice Treatment Working Or... Not?

    Hello! I recently posted about my two girls and discovered that they have lice. They have seen a vet who couldn't find any lice but I was sure I had seen a couple so they both had a shot of ivermectin and he said to return in one week. That was on Saturday and my girls seem to be even more...

    Lice Infestation?!?!

    I recently noticed the girls scratching more especially today and so checked Florries fur, I noticed a brown fleck and upon further investigation it was wriggling about and soon found another one.

    Mean Biting Piggie

    So I've had my guinea pig for about 6 months now and at first he was fine, no issue at all, but recently (maybe a month) he has started acting very aggressive.

    Pink/red Pee?!?!?!

    When looking around my piggy's cage I saw red/pink bedding. I realize that is blood in her urine. She went in her igloo and peed again, and there was blood in her pee again. I realize that most commonly if there is blood in the urine it is a UTI. Is there anything else that it could be? Is...

    Sos

    Hi, I'm Gavin's owner; Gavin's the first Piggy I've ever had and it was a spontaneous decision to get him, so not much research was done. I've had him for about 4-5 years now and about a week ago I noticed he stopped eating, drinking, peeing, pooping, and moving other than to reposition himself...

    New And Scared

    Hi! So I'm new to owning a Guinea pig but it had all been going well. He was super happy, seemly health and very active. My life became very hectic and I stopped playing with him like I should. I fed and cleaned him for the past two weeks but rarely played. I came to him today to find him...

    Hi, my guinea pig is getting on a bit now at about 4/5 years old, I'm worried she's sick or dying as she isn't her normal squeaky self, she has tried to eat but didn't manage to eat much.
