I designed this hub especially for brand new guinea pig owners like you! There is a lot of conflicting advice online about guinea pig care, and it can be overwhelming when you are new to them! They are quite complex little creatures, and it's important to get their care right from the get-go.
I am a guinea pig expert, caring for hundreds of guinea pigs every year here at The Rabbit Rooms Small Animal Boarding in Dublin, and also offering guinea pig grooming and guinea pig bonding services. I also have my own little herd of three female guinea pigs, but have owned many guinea pigs over the years :)
I put together this amazing information hub so that owners can get all the information they need from a reliable source all in one place. I have close contact with two amazing small animal vets, so you can rest assured that the knowledge I am passing on to you is up to date!
To start you off, there is an amazing CAVY CAPER CHALLENGE which is 14 days of bitesize emails with information for new owners and some fun things to do to help you develop a bond with your new fur baby / babies! The Hub also contains watch-when-you-want classes on:
- Identifying Guinea pig Sounds and Behaviours
- Bonding with your Guinea Pig
- How to Pick Up your Guinea Pig without Panic (you or them!)
- Getting their Diet Right
- Syringe feeding / Giving Oral Medications
- Sexing
- Grooming and Nail Clipping, Bathing and More
- Foraging and Natural Remedies
- Putting together a Guinea Pig First Aid Kit
- Common Guinea Pig Illnesses
- Homemade Guinea pig Toys and Treats
And Much More!
Everything a new owner could need!
