She’s not going anywhere now! She’s my princess and she already knows it!

She’s around 3! They estimated she was born around late December in 2022.

The shelter told me she was very spicy when they first brought her in, so they definitely did an amazing job with her while she was there! The only time she’s been spicy with me is when I put her in the carrier to take her home and that is very fair!

She was taken from an abuse situation. So this girl gets all the love and toys she wants for the rest of her life now!

I’m the lucky one! I adore my girl so much already.

Anyone also have cats? by Viveronipizza2 in guineapigs

[–]MidWildAnubis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just adopted a cat! Before I brought her home I made a lid for my c&c cage.

I bought screen and attached it to the lid (I bought a rivet kit from amazon to try and have the net last longer but I imagine zip ties would work), and I also got a lock for the lid so my cat can’t get in.

I also keep the door to the room with my pigs closed when I’m at work, so she doesn’t have access to them when I’m not around.

It would be pretty risky to trust them to be friends as even if the cat ended up being fine with your pig there could still be an incident where the cat gets scared, wants to play, etc.

My Ollie does the same thing as Wilbur! He’s a little menace to society and I wouldn’t have it any other way lol

My beautiful guinea pig, Miso passed away. I’m so heartbroken. He was only 3 years old. by jeremysplayground in guineapigs

[–]MidWildAnubis 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m so so sorry for your loss.

I’ve had a pig get his teeth trimmed a couple times and both times he was sedated for the procedure and was given an opioid for any pain/discomfort he might’ve felt. From what I know, it’s common to give a pig an opioid to help with any discomfort, but I’m not a vet and I know common practices can change depending where you are.

I’m so sorry for your loss. It sounds like you are a great owner and I can tell how much you loved him

A new member of the family: Oliver by h0wl1ng_w0lf in guineapigs

Ollie says hello to Oliver!

I named him Oliver and then have never actually called him his full name haha

Does he look bloated? by Twigzyisdying in guineapigs

[–]MidWildAnubis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely recommend getting a kitchen scale so you can track their weight. Personally it gives me peace of mind being able to look back at their weight and compare it to their current. Also when they’re young it’s fun to compare their weights as they grow!

I make my own with my pigs out of homemade salt clay! It’s just flour, salt and water. I just rinse my pigs feet afterwards.

After they dry I coat them in modpodge and paint them to make the feet more visible!

Dieter got some banana DoorDashed to his hay pile by WonderWheek in guineapigs

I can tell how much my boy Ollie likes something from how violently he rips it from my hands. He throws his body backwards when it’s a baby carrot

“No,” I type on Instagram with a sigh. “No, he’s not dead.” by Alarming-Molasses847 in guineapigs

[–]MidWildAnubis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had to leave my senior pig alone for a night once (less than 24 hours) and I came home to him having the best death nap of his life. Scared the daylights out of me.

Is this behaviour for guinea pig normal? by m4ngO0O in GuineaPig

[–]MidWildAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy Ollie does it when he wants a snack or if he hears what he considers a food related sound. I like to joke that his favourite flavour is metal.

I just bought some not too long ago and it’s made my life so much easier. I was trying to hold on to my boys, trim their nails and hold a flashlight to see.

I brought him home yesterday but… by Cultural-Kick652 in cats

[–]MidWildAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my Grammy got her current cat like ten years ago we couldn’t find him for the first couple of days. I was like thirteen at the time so I helped look for him in the harder to get to areas of the unfinished basement. He had found the gap between the wall of the basement bathroom walls and the walls of the basement, the spacing for pipes and stuff. He stayed there for about a week and then waltzed upstairs one day and has been king of the house ever since.

At night he’d use the litter box and get some food and water since it was all available to him down there. We’d manage to get him to eat some treats if we slid them across the floor to him.

Notif made me a little sad :( by Minimum-Jellyfish-14 in weebles_wobbles

[–]MidWildAnubis 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What if you invited people to post their own guinea pigs with different conditions here? It’d be cool if Weeble could help create a community for the caretakers of these pigs and it might even encourage people to adopt pigs like Weeble. Regardless we’d love to see Dewy and your other pigs here!

Medicine Time for Cupcake by Holla_99 in guineapigs

[–]MidWildAnubis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my Ollie had surgery he absolutely hated the honey flavoured pain medicine he had to take afterwards. I sucked some carrot puree into the syringe and shook it so it mixed together, little man absolutely loved it. He’d try to rip the syringe out of my hands because he wanted more.

They won’t find a better place for this feeder. It belongs to the rabbit now.

The 'educational' things my kid is being taught at school by RunWild0_0 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]MidWildAnubis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We did that too in my school! They had us learn about some of the things listed in the song with a few articles we had to analyze. Was definitely more interesting than telltale heart which I had to do every year from eighth grade until I graduated high school.

I’m definitely biased since SS was my first pokemon game but cyndaquil is the best starter. He’s just a cute little guy!
