Hi folks! I've been thinking for a while about getting a pair of piggies. The possible barrier is I have chronic fatigue. Feeding and general care should be fine but I'm worried about reliably having the physical energy to keep their cage clean.
Does anyone have advice on ways to keep the cage in good shape in a low physical exertion way? What types of cage and bedding would you recommend, and other tips and tricks? I would particularly love to hear from other chronically ill or disabled people.
As a boy I kept guinea pigs in a hutch and run outdoors. These days I am looking at cages for indoors so it's all new. I'd like to give them lots of room - I want 2 sows but will try and give them the minimum space for 3 pigs if I can. But can't commit until I know I can meet all their needs.
