Guinea Vocab

Guinea pigs talk to you frequently. If they are scared or extermly excited the will make a loud WEEEEKKK sound. Guinea pigs will also just casually talk to you it will sound like wee wee loo duurr wee whee. Most of the time when people first get a guinea they think it's soooo cute but once you here it at 3:ooam..... well.... lets just say it's not so cute any more. What I do if that happens is take there cage and put it in a close room nearby as there punishment!!!

Nail Cutting

Yes guinea pigs nails do have to get cut. It's very easy all you do is...

1. Hold the guinea pig on its shoulders, softly 2. Then you take just normal human nail cutters and cut the wights of the toe 3. Make sure you don't cut the quick or pink part of the toe or it will bleed If the toe does bleed use all natural corn starch and dab it on the toe the bleeding should subside in 1-2 minutes.

Starting up...

So now that you have your sweet little guinea pig your going to need a cage, water bottle, food dish, and dome for your guinea pig to survive. Guinea pigs also love a lot of bedding in the bottom of their cage so they can burrow into the bedding. I recommend Aspen bedding.

Guinea pigs need lots of love and attention so make sure to take them out of their cage and cuddle with them for at least 30 minutes a day. Guinea pigs especially when they are Young, must be hand held every day.

For the cage it must be 30" x 36" for one guinea. For two guinea's 30" x 50". For three guinea's 30" x 62". And last but not least four guineas 30" x 76". But remember when buying a cage bigger is always better!
