Hug time!

I just came back from giving my guinea pigs a cuddle (which was much appreciated by squeeks as I have been really busy recently and hadn't had time to visit them v. often) and I just thought randomly I could give you a few tips of advisable foods for your piggies:

suitable foods include:
carrot
beetroot
parsley
cucumber
apple (but just a bit as they can develop mouth problems due to the sourness)
celery (chopped, otherwise it might be hard to chew)
dry food ( I don't recommend Gerty guinea pig, as it has colouring and is unhealthy. Get a nice, old-fashioned mix from a nice pet shop which contains pellets, dried carrots and the usual stuff)
grapes (only one every other day because it causes dioherra)
honeydew melon.

unsuitable foods:
iceburg lettuce
potatoes.

ALWAYS SUPPLY HAY, FRESH WATER, AND FOOD.

tommorrow I will do a post on grooming,
love,
Anna x
