When I was younger, I didn’t understand that my guinea pig Jughead needed a friend. Thanks to your videos, I have gotten him out of the small cage that the pet store sold us, and now have a 2 Midwest cages combined together. Now, I have won the battle for a 2nd guinea pig with my parents, and we are getting him next week! Thank you so so so much.

I made the mistake of a small cage for my guinea pig babies and I had no idea until I seen videos like this and when I made the change to a 2x5 two story cage with a ramp they loved it so much after 2 months of let store sized cage of jail cell size torture......literally one of them ran around in a circle a bunch of times flat out and excitedly weeking, it was uber cute and make me feel so bad for not realising how sad they must have been in the uncaring pet store cages I was tricked into buying.

So happy your piggy is getting a friend!!! It’s so important… when I got one for my Christmas piggy, they got along and then out of nowhere they started fighting :( drawing blood and bad bad fights to the point my little Mochi had a abscess cause of the gashes he got from the fights… I eventually separated them and I felt so bad cause I knew Mochi wanted a buddy but they just didn’t get along.. so I got him a new friend and they are BFFL’s!! They love having a cage mate❤

Both of my boys are sadly pet store piggies, since they were given as a birthday gift. I was unable to care for them properly since my parent hated them, and I was too young to work. Now, I have a job, and this video helped me figure out what was missing from my Guinea pig set up and figure out what I need to get to make my boys as happy as possible. Thank you so much.

So sorry to hear about Lyra, Sarah. What a beautiful tribute you gave her - I am still wiping the tears away. Since we were gifted a piggie I have learned a lot from you. I wish I had known that Cookie needed a friend. When I found out, the girl at the pet store made it sound like more trouble and hassle than I could handle. My piggie is lonely. I have had my piggie since early February, and I still don't even know what sex it is, as it is very skittish. It popcorns everywhere if I try to hold it, yet it purrs, eats out of my hand and kisses me. I spend a lot of time with my piggie as a result of all of this. Thanks for all that you do, Sarah, and your piggies are watching over you, my dear!

Hi, I'm at the of twelve and saving up all my bank account money to build a cage like your cage! When i was younger, I always dreamed of having 3 to 4 guinea pigs in my bedroom and outside, but one day this, this nearly came true when it was my 8th birthday and my mum took me to pet barn to buy 2 male piggies, but she recommended not to buy 2 male because they fight to death, so. but by the end of 2024, I will hopefully have a magnificent cage like your cage!!!❤❤.Thank u Sarah, is it? love your content, keep it up!!!

Definitely agree with the one about the bowls. One of the bowls I have for my piggies (bc they don’t share very well), my male piggy yeets it and spills the pellets all over. I’ve found glass bottles better too. My boy piggy likes to pull it and let it whack back against their cage. This lead to the discovery that the metal drinking part could be pulled out of the part it attaches with, which doesn’t happen with glass bottles. A couple other things I’ve found useful is a big box so you can fluff the hay and it won’t be as compressed as in the bag. A good stiff brush helps too if you use fleece. It really helps to brush off poops and hay before washing

My daughter got one for her birthday a year ago we ended up getting covid and we couldn't spend too much time with him so as soon as we got the OK we went and got a brother for him. Fur babies are taking over my house because I say a poor baby alone at petco so I had to get him their was no way I was going to leave him so now I have 3, Lucky Gizzmo and Nugget They are beyond spoiled they now have my dinning room all for them and my table I had to put I'm storage because I hate them being in a small space so now they have a townhouse plenty of room to run around and play they have so many things that I switch them off and on so they don't get bored they truly help me with my depression too, but now I want 1 more but my husband says I'm nuts and looking like a crazy person.....thank you for all your help with these videos sending love to all your fur babies

I've built my piggies queendome. It fits perfectly in the spot I've chosen in the lounge-room and I've got just about everything to expand it from its 2x5 to 3x5 for later piggies. The girls are outside mowing the lawn so they will get a nice surprise this afternoon when I bring them back in. I did find not to put out too much in pellets as they have no objection pooing and peeing in the bowl.

I had 2 GP for years, years and never gave them hay. They were beautiful and healthy and squeaky, pop happy. Their teeth were kept worn by the GP pellets. This was over 35 years ago when internet wasn't even a thought, just books to study. But if I owned one now, I would give hay, if just to watch them eat. Love that part of them. I did give clover once a week, but very small amount. And a big bowl of water. One GP loved racing into her water bowl lol. SO much better info now.

Pet stores need to get there act together there must be millions of piggies that have had one a hell of a sad life because of these pet stores.......it hurts me to know this truth and how terrible that is for these cutest and most loving of animals!!!!!

I have two male Guinea pigs called Harry and Charlie they were bred by my friends family and they are so sweet but a little bit crazy. My dad used to be a carpenter so he helped me build an amazing wooden pen with mesh around it. There is Astro turf in there and they have thick fleece blankets that they burrow into and as they are outside and s it can get cold my mum got two heat pads that go in the micro wave and come out really hot. We wrap them up and put them in with the pigs. They sleep on them and are nice and warm. I got my pigs when I was a bit younger and didn’t look after them very well so my mum had to do it. I decided a while ago that I was going to look after them to the best of my ability and look after them myself. It’s going great. Thanks for the videos xx

I've just got my first guinea pig. He is on his own unfortunately I was told he started attacking his brother I do want a companion for him as I do know they are best in 2 or more. I am new to this so it's nice to find this video. I'm gonna get him a c and c cage and do fleece as it does seem a lot better. X

We inherited a beautiful bull. He’s called Boss Man. We’re improving his home and his food! We are considering adopting another piggy but are worried he’s too bossy…

Fabulously informative and cute as always. Think my big clumsy thumb hit the thumbs down symbol for a second so sorry for that! Corrected in an instant! Definitely think fleece is the way we will go, with pee pads, might have to get the sewing machine dusted off, oh heck, how do I use that again?! Only thing we need to do now is sell one of our sofas to clear the space where the enclosure will go … xx

Maybe organise with your friends to go out shopping and buy another Guinea pig then?? Not sure though but it worked for me bc my dad didn’t let me have pets so me and my mam went shopping and bought a rat.

This is a year ago, and i dont even know if the guinea pig is still here, but if it is, you NEED to tell your mom it can die from depression. They are not independant, in the wild they travel in large herds and your guinea pig will die from depression. Explain that to your mom, you can also search it up and show it to your mom

PAH nuggets smell great but the main ingredient seems to be alfalfa so not meant to be given to GP over 6 months. I’m just switching to burgess mint nuggets and my piggies love them! It still has alfalfa (Lucerne) but it’s not the first ingredient listed. Your vids really helped me as a first time GP owner. TY

@SqueakDreams 2 жыл бұрын
Useful to know! Yes I had heard about alfalfa in burgess which has confused me in the past! I think they are still good nuggets but would not be the best for a piggie prone to bladder stones.

We don’t have enough space inside, but we bought them a massive 5 x 8’ shed made specifically for guinea pigs with installation and I’ve got to say if you can’t have them inside that is a quite a good option. The only problem with it is it was very expensive, we got it from Cherry acres.
