Here are the main things your guinea pig will need to stay fit, healthy and happy:
- Clean water(change every couple of days)
- Special guinea pig food (Gerty Guinea Pig is a good brand)
- Fresh Timothy hay (buy in a bag from your local pet store)
- Clean Hutch (clean once or twice week depending on how dirty it gets)
- At least an hour a day in a Large Outdoor/Indoor Run (a rabbit one is good for more than 2 guinea pigs)
- Fresh Food (Cucumber, Lettuce, Celery etc)
- And a lot of love and cuddling!
If your guinea pig looks unwell or severely over or underweight you should seek advice from your vet as this may lead to a life threatening illness.
Hope this helps!
