Junior Guinea Pig
Mabel is around 6 and is a sole guinea since the death of her companion several months ago.
she is on fleece in a ferplast cage with a litter tray. The litter tray is just a cat litter tray lined with paper and hay. She did the bulk of her toileting in there. After a small scare when I thought she had stopped peeing we have realised she isn’t going into the litter tray anymore. She has struggled with what is probably arthritis for a while now and I removed the raised level from the cage. So she’s probably not able now to jump in.
she has an igloo and I’ve recently removed the remnant of an edible hideaway that was falling over all the time as he’s eaten it away in one corner.
I’m wondering how what I could put her hay in? She likes to bury herself in it sometimes.
Looking for cage inspiration for an older lady :-) preferavly without spending a fortune and something I can get that’s not sold out everywhere! She doesn’t much like fancy stuff. When her mate died she rejected all toys, cage chew things, teddy’s. She only accepted the new house that she’s now chewed through.
she’s still able to get about fine as I’ve seen her moving round the cage and popcorning. Must just be the jumping that’s too much now.
ThankS in advqnce
