I've organised a checklist for myself and any new piggie owners! Of course, you can cross off the shed and lino and anything else you dont need and I've added little comments on what I use to help, I'm going to be using this when i move the piggies into the new shed, i just wondered if anyone could add anything i may of left off!
The Shed
Hutch
Hutch Covers – Space Blanket Insulating Cover and Home Made Rain Coat (modified shower curtain) and fleece blanket for cool nights.
Toy Box and Cuddle Box – Fleece Blankets, wooden toys, wooden sticks, pigloos, and plastic coat hooks to hand wooden toys on in the hutch.
Medical Box (Top shelf?)
(Scales, Cotton Wool buds and pads, Blankets x 3, Syringe, sudocream, pure alo vera gel)
Pamper Box
Guineas Lice 'n' Easy Shampoo, Brushes x 3, nail clippers and Cuddle Pamper Cushions
Cleaning Box:
(Table Mats (to line the hutch floor) Dust Pan And Brush, Bottle brushes, Hutch and Spray, Vinegar, Kitchen Roll, Tooth Brush, Sponge, Black Bags, green garden recyclebag newspaper , rubber gloves, soft fleece and snuggle safe bedding)
Food Stuffs
( Plastic Food Storage was thinking of getting: http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produ...77|Kitchen+storage+and+breadbins|14418486.htm or would cake tins be better? Treats, herbage mix, excel nuggets, dried fruit treats. Spare bottle and spare food dish)
Hay – normal, exel herbage, and exel barn dried grass and Sawdust.
Broom and Bucket
Foldable Runs (indoor and out)
Books:
RSPCA Guide to Guinea Pigs, Guniea Pig Care Guide, and..my Guinea Pig Diary, (which contains their name, age dob, colour, breed, vet contacts medical history etc, housing details,feeding and excerise guide and routine, cleaning routine, food list of what to and what not to eat, their main weekly routine, a week to week diary of their habbits, personalities and weight check, a list of websites (the guinea pig forum!)/good shops to buy for them, emergency contact numbers and details)
Hospital / Quarantine Cage
Misc:
Have I missed anything off my checklist for moving the piggies into the shed? The 'hospital' indoor cage is going in my bedroom for the time being (until we get a bigger shed!) Can you think of anything else i need? I have everything on the list apart from the food stoage boxs and shelves, its going to be a very big move! Hope this list was helpful to any new piggie owner too, and anyone moving their piggie stuffs into a shed!
