Just because a creature is small does not always mean that they are easy to care for. This rule especially applies to cavies. I hope that the information I supply here helps your guinea pig live out a long, happy, and healthy life as well has give you some helpful tips that you can use along the way.
Guinea pigs are low maintenance, low cost pets.
They require a clean home, food and water, occasional medical care, and someone to love. They are great with children as they rarely bite and they will help instill responsibility. Back to Cavies. I am not a vet or certified to care for or treat guinea pigs. The information provided here has been collected over a period of time from books on cavies and from other breeders and cavy owners.
