New Born Pup
Hi! I recently rehomed two amazing Guinea pigs about two months ago. I noticed they both had pinkish/red heels. However, in the past couple of weeks, it seems like they have gotten worse. They are in the midwestern cage and I took out the wire ramp to see if that might be causing an issue. I also clean out their bedding every 2-3 days (fleece) but I have paper bedding that I change every day in the corner. Their old owners did a lot of stuff differently so I’m still trying to find what bedding methods work best for me. I’m pretty sure the old owners did mention going to the vet because potato (bigger piggie) had reddish feet. Apparently it was just because he had more weight on his body and they switched up his diet and he went back to normal. My parents think I’m paranoid since they have lived in the same cage with similar treatment the past 3 years and have been fine, however, I would hate to have somehting happen to them. I am definitely a very paranoid person, esp when it comes to pets. I didn’t want to pay an expensive vet bill before getting some other opinions! Is this a cause of concern?
