New Born Pup
Hello! I am new here, and to owning a guinea pig. A couple of days ago I got a peruvian Guinea Pig from a pet shop, and as soon as I picked him up I knew he was being poorly treated. I can feel his hip bones, his spine, everything! And he is so frightened, he's just starting to trust me a little. So, my question is: since he is so malnourished, is it ok to feed him double the daily recomendation? I am currently giving him two sliced cucumber (small ones) and one sliced carrot everyday (he rejected others) and guinea pig mix (about 30gr twice a day), and hay. Is it enough, or is it too much? I read about Critical Care by Oxwall but unfortunately I cannot find it in Russia (where I live). Please help!
