my cute little enzo :)

Natty: I love you, I make you look pretty
Poppy: stop touching me

Hey so this is biscuit!! He love watermelon and lettuce. (Btw I don’t give him watermelon all the time). He hate bell pepper and cucumber. 😞 but he will eat what he likes in minutes.

i’ve taken my 6-8 yo male guinea pig to see three different vets. he was treated for a pointed tooth but none of them could find anything else wrong. he’s acting totally normal now other than weight loss, could he just be old and nearing the end of his life?

Our girlie Storm lost her cage mate about 3-4 months ago. Cage mate, Nova, was the younger of the two. Storm is about 6 years old and recently her “weeks” are nonexistent although she still tries and you can hear that she’s trying. I know they live up to 8 years. Has anyone ever dealt with this? We’ve always kept her healthy with plenty of hay, vitamin D Rich greens & fresh water as well as treats, & clean cage. I think she may be blind by now, and going deaf as well. (We have to tap her hide to get her to come out because she won’t see/hear us otherwise) I do also feel as though she is thinning out body wise. Not sure of this is just age. Point of the above is we are leaving for vacation Friday and I have a family member coming by to feed her. We will only be gone 4 days. (We can’t bring her due to not having enough space in the car, already bringing two other caged animals. A squirrel & a Syrian hamster, lol)

Hi everyone! 👋🐹 I’m new here and just wanted to introduce myself and my two little guys, Reese’s & Squirrel! {Reese’s is the one with white yellow and brown and squirrel is the grey white brownish :) }
I’m so glad I found a community full of other guinea pig people because these two have completely taken over my camera roll 😂
They have VERY different personalities and somehow there’s always something going on between them — especially when peppers are involved 🌶️😂. One minute they’re chilling together, the next somebody is stealing somebody else’s food.
I recently started recording more of their funny little moments, so I figured this would be the perfect place to introduce them and meet some other guinea pig owners!
Looking forward to seeing everyone’s piggies and sharing more of Reese’s & Squirrel with you guys! ❤️🐹🐹
Here’s the little troublemakers themselves 😂👇

She had an ear infection in the pass which gave her a head tilt (but it went away after the ear infection went away).
I’m worried the ear infection might’ve came back. Is this a head tilt or does she just lay down weird?

🐹💕 **GUINEA PIGS LOOKING FOR A LOVING HOME!** 💕🐹

I have **2 male guinea pigs (brothers)** looking for their forever home! They were born **May 15th and are about 3.5 months old**. One is white and the other is black, and they are both SUPER fluffy.

In January, I adopted 2 guinea pigs who I was told were both female, Steak and Potato. Well… it turns out Steak was actually a boy! 😂 Before I knew it, 2 guinea pigs became 6. As much as I love them, having 6 is unfortunately more than I can realistically manage in terms of the time, space, and care they require.

I really just want these two to go to someone who will love them and give them a happy home.**FREE to a good home.** ❤️

Please feel free to message me if you’re interested or have any questions! I’d love to find them a family who will love them as much as I do. 🐹💕

The sound of the fridge door opening yields potential for veggies. He knows I love him and find his cute little wheeks irresistible and all he has to do is start doing it to get what he wants. Now every time I open the fridge he will start wheeking. Even when it’s not around meal time. And a lot of the time I feel bad and toss him a bell pepper.

Cheeky little guy.

Her eye is like shaking, I would put a video but I don’t think
Reddit has an option to input videos

bought these costumes (and a few more) from petsmart to take the piggies trick or treating for halloween. what do you guys think?

Hi everyone. These are my boys Ed (full name Ed Sheeran, white and orange) and Ham (Multicolor). I have had for 7 years. We’ve had quite the struggle with their health recently, especially Ham. Me and my family have spent over 1k on vet expenses in the past 3 months. Ham started with blood in his urine, and that initial visit was $500+. We had him on 3 meds and slowly, he got better. I’d like to note that he does still have blood in his urine, just a smaller amount and on pain management meds. Then, I noticed Ed was starting to slow down. I keep a very close eye on their health at this point, I’m scared to death of losing them, but I couldn’t find anything wrong. His breathing was good, I couldn’t feel lumps, his appetite was a little less than normal but not so much that I worried. He was still eating the same amount, just a little slower. And then one day I pulled him out to share a carrot with me and I noticed he seemed to be breathing heavy. I lifted him up to hear his breathing and it was… different. Very audible. Not necessarily like it was hard to breathe, just very audible. And that’s what the vet said when we went in. That she wasn’t super worried about it being life threatening, just a mild URI and sent us home with an antibiotic and set an appointment up for two weeks when the antibiotics were up. I was very optimistic because this vet is incredible and always has solutions when I have felt like there’s nothing left to do. Unfortunately, she’s not a miracle worker and he’s not getting better. Now my boy Ham is sounding exactly how Ed does.

I am so exhausted. I don’t have the money to keep fighting that’s next. I don’t have the energy to worry about them every second of the day while I’m struggling so hard with my mental health that I’ve been considering hospitalization again. I cannot lose them. Not now. Not at the same time. They have been my rock for 7 years. The vets office is closed this weekend and I’m unsure of what to do. My mom thinks that this is their way of letting go. I’m really hoping that it’ll be an easy thing and we’ll get a nebulizer or something that magically fixes them, but I’m not optimistic. Even if we get past this, I see a future of medications and suffering for my boys. I don’t have positive interactions with them anymore because they expect medicine or health checks every time I hold them now. Ham seems less and less happy every day. He has good days and he has less good days. Ed chitters his teeth around half the time I enter my room now because he expects bad things at this point. I sit with them and I talk to them and we do floor time and I give them treats and they just don’t like me anymore because of the associations they have with my presence now.

I don’t know if I’m asking for advice or just someone who understands what it’s like having elderly pigs that you know are going soon. I’m a wreck. Thanks for reading about my boys. I really appreciate it
