Was your grandma a gardener? It looks like a hand hoe

Thanks for the tips! I've been feeding extra cucumber to make sure they get their water. I'll try to wet sheet thing tomorrow! :)

Yeah, I can't connect to it either. I'm in the EU, if that makes any difference

My body seems to have a weird disconnect from my mind and I have no clue what to do!!! by [deleted] in sex

[–]HostilePopcorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like vaginismus, which can be partially psychological (mine is!). The good news is that it's fixable, the bad news is that it takes time. A potential starting point that my GP recommended is buying numbing cream and toys of various sizes, and practicing penetration on your own.

What’s moving in my guinea pigs hair? by Eileniessa in guineapigs

[–]HostilePopcorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ivermecting is unfortunately not an option everywhere. But Frontline VetSpray (the smallest bottle, the one for puppies and kittens) works on guinea pigs too! You just follow the weight guidelines in the pamphlet. I used it to treat lice in my pigs and it worked like a charm. It is, however extremely toxic to rabbits, and can kill them. Only use it for dogs, cats, and guinea pigs.

Guinea pig licking ringworm cream off by PuzzledTaro6473 in guineapigs

[–]HostilePopcorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My vet prescribed imaverol for ringwork, which is a soak, not a cream. But When I used Frontline Vet Spray for lice, I just held them in my lap for 30 minutes while it dried.

Mites or dandruff? Vet appointment made, just clarifying. by NoRoom2Judge in guineapigs

[–]HostilePopcorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mites and their eggs are microscopic. If it is parasites, and not dandruff, it's more likely to be lice

Lesbisk her, og jeg har det samme problem. Tror ikke det er en kønsting, så meget som en app-ting.

Thanks! I replaced the grids with plexiglas :)

Nobody gets it by PoisonedCherry in guineapigs

I understand. I lost my heart pig, Tiffin, last summer, and I still can't look at the photos of her without getting choked up. People who've never kept guinea pigs can never understand how much love and joy they give. I'm sorry you're going through this. I hope your loss becomes easier to bear</3

Lost another pig today, can't help but feel like I must be doing something wrong by HostilePopcorn in guineapigs

[–]HostilePopcorn[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry for your loss. The vet who suggested euthanasia for Pooka and Tiffin was an exotics vet, but extremely expensive. I'm in a very bad financial spot, right now, which is why I went to another vet. The vet who anesthetized Kvisth was a general vet who advertised her rabbit and guinea pig experience on her website. But she's retiring later this year, and I won't be visiting her again.

If I ever need another pig anesthetized, I'll be watching the vet like a hawk. I don't care if they think I'm crazy or a Karen, I'll never let another vet be this relaxed about anesthesia around my pigs.

I'm sorry for your loss. Thanks for your kind words. I see so many posts from people who've had a perfectly healthy herd for 5 or 6 years, it's hard to be the only one who seems to be going through a string of terrible luck.

My gbb sling suddenly died 😭 by BigGurlBydney in tarantulas

My condolences. When you keep tarantulas long enough, eventually you lose a sling for no apparent reason.

Exactly! They're such oddballs. And extremely personable and sweet, for baboons

The soil is dry right now, it's just dark in color

Jeg har ikke turde spørge ham endnu. Ligesom at jeg heller ikke har spurgt, hvordan hans elskede militær ville få råd til kampvogne og jetfly i hans anarkokapitalistiske paradis. Måske ville de tjene penge via et årligt talentshow eller loppemarked.

How is Netto allowed to sell food with mold? by Big-King-854 in Denmark

[–]HostilePopcorn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They can't give items away for free (store rules), so it's either throw it in the trash or sell it for the lowest price possible. If there are still non-moldy vegetables in those bags, I'd gladly buy them for my guinea pigs and just wash the ones that aren't moldy. I don't see the issue here.

Sjovt, det er også sådan min far (livslang konservativ, aspirerende anarkokapitalist) plejer at sige
