RE: Pet Guinea Pigs - Information
I have a question. We have a hamster and a guinea pig. the piggie is not full grown. My question is, can we let the hamster and guinea pig have play time together? What if the hamster is in his ball? What if they are both roaming the same area? We also have a cat who is curious and wants to play? Play time is NEVER left unsupervised!
A reply would be most welcome

YAYA! I have been Begging my parents for eternity and they said they didn't know and my dad doesn't really like guineas. But Today they finally said YES! I am Really Happy! Should I take it to the vet to get it checked?

Thoughts after owning a guinea pig
A guinea pig was my first pet! I loved owning them. Unfortunately, I forgot to check one at the pet-store to see if she was unhealthy, so she ended up getting blind and had bald patches.
Wonderful pets though. Very loud and obnoxious when they get excited for FOOD.
They weren't very active in any way shape or form ( unless it involved food). All in all, they were great pets, and I loved them.

YAY I am about to get my first Guinea pig soon!
I have been begging my parents for the last 12 years to get me a guinea pig, and my 19th birthday is tomorrow and on Friday (a couple more days) they are FINALLY taking me to get my very second one, lol. I had one male one named Robbie for like a week before he died when I was 7, my cousin killed him by accident and they said they wouldn't get me another one because they were stinky.
I am SO happy to be getting one after so long, I am like a first time owner because it was so long ago and I only had him for such a short time. I'm excited and learning everything I can, I still have to think of a name for it... it depends on what gender I get, I want a female, but I don't know.

*SNIFFS* my Eight year old guinea pig is dying. She isn't interested in carrots or food, water, attention. I'm so sad. What do I do? How can I deal with it?
Editor's Note: So sorry to hear this Kennah but Guinea Pigs lifespans are only 4-7 years so for yours to be 8 years old mean she's very old indeed. Try to make her as comfortable as you can. Death is part of life, we can't stop it but we can make it as easy as possible.

for the vitamin C issue give the pigs vegs with extra C in them. Also some oranges, a little piece ( 1/4) and that helps. Or you can add oj to the water bottle every other day, half water and half oj. Keep them very clean. I do small pet grooming and to see a 'piggy' with feces stuck to their feet is just AWFUL.

What about litter control?
Can they be litterbox trained? Do they give off strong urine odor? I would like to get several for my grand daighters, and they would have to stay at my house, so I would like to know about caring for them and cleaning up after them. Thanks....

RE: Pet Guinea Pigs - Information
When my sons were growing up we always had several guinea pigs. Got them their first ones at ages 4 and 6. At one time we had 2 females that had babies at once and had a steady stream of kids coming by to choose their new baby. You cant have 2 males together, my male babies started to fight befor they were old enough to leave their mom. My sons are now both in their 20s and dont live at home, I still have one guinea pig though! The amazing thing about them is that they are born with eyes open, lots of fur and running around eating hay or veggies within the hour.
