Hi all
Before I bought my guinea pigs, I hadn't got anything for them so went to the pet shop and asked for everything I would need. I was given woodshavings and thought this was ok as the pet shop used it.
After reading a guinea pig book and talking to a vet, they have suggested using hay as bedding as woodshavings can cause respiratory problems and/or infections. I have started using hay but wondered if I could use newspaper or anything else under the hay which will absorb liquid.
Would appreciate any advice given.
Many thanks.
