Freddie - Male Guinea Pig (Novato, CA)

Freddie - Male Guinea Pig

Freddie is more mellow and really enjoys being petted more so than Wilbur.. They should each have their own hiding box (which they enjoy tipping over from time to time) and a cage at least this big..or if possible..bigger Keep in mind that they are very young so their next family should be ready to commit to many years of caring for them.GP s like to chew on gp safe toys wooden chewing toys and cardboard (like tp paper towel rolls) so make sure these two have them at all times. You can also stuff tp rolls with hay to make it a bit more fun. They do not need treats or salt licks.They will need time outside of their cage every day (inside of course). They need to stretch but more importantly they need to get out for mental stimulation. Find a safe area in your home where they can t get caught behind something or crawl into a small space..like a long hallway or a small bathroom. Put some towels down in case they potty and it ll help with traction.They should be picked up with both hands because they have very delicate spines and bodies. If not held properly or dropped they can easily be injured.Their cage should be at least this big or bigger. It should not be placed near heat or drafts. It must be cleaned every 2-3 days so they stay healthy and it won t get smelly. (See Wilbur s write-up for more care feeding information.)
