@petlover324 well my cat had lived with my dog, my bird, my fishes.. although he didnt try to kill them exept the fish.. he got used to them but starred them down sometimes, also my cat doesnt have nails either.. how did you trust your cat& adapt to your piggies un covered?:)
@beautylovers09 Oh I see. Well, when I first introduced them to my cat, he stared them down and hopped into their cage a few times that week. I just made sure I watched him. When he did jump into the cage, I left him once to see his reaction. He just lied down. All he really wanted to do was watch the pigs. From then on, I kept an eye on him but had his trust after a while. :D If your cat swats your pig or attempts to bite, that's not a good sign.
great video, but i was just wondering.. im getting a c and c cage and i also have a cat and i dont want any risk for my guinea pigs so ill be putting a cover, your cat doesnt go after them?
@beautylovers09 My cat had no claws and had no intentions of harming my pigs. He would sometimes try and swat at them. DO NOT trust your cat with your pigs though. A cover is smart. :) My cat lived with other animals all his life so he never harmed them but cats can sometimes be naturally drawn to small "prey" like guinea pigs.
I would never wash pet stuff in my washing machine, that's disturbing - azll the hair will get caught in the machine, not to mention dirt and faeces you don't see.
Especially if you're washing face/bath/tea towels - That's unhygenic.
But otherwise I love the vid and your Piggy! :) Very cute :)
@ILUVlupin I've had my pigs for soon to be 2 years and the fur doesn't get caught. Also it's not unhygenic because I turn on the washer again though a cycle without the fleece after I wash the fleece so it'll be clean. Thanks. :)
@ILUVlupin your daft y use a washing machine to clean it remove dirt not leaves it in the washing machine.if y clean it after it ok.,if y feel like that why y got guinea pigs i dont no.y can get human hair stuck in a washing machine.not guinea pigs there hair is short.and it dont fall out to cause a problem.and the poo is clean its just hay and vegies. tell her that.
I want to get a guinea pig but my mom says no their to stinky and they think I can't take care of my animals that i have now ( i take care of them good my turtle has been living for over 2 years) what should i do?
@TheBlueRose360 Trust me. Guinea pigs do NOT smell AT ALL as long as you clean their cage regularly! Just explain it to her. To convince her for the turtle incident, just take REALLY good care of your turtle even if you've already been doing so. Show her how much you love your turtle and take great care of it and how much you want a guinae pig. Just don't whine about it since parents hate that. Good luck!
omg that is soo cool! I want to make a cage like that. but i have a hamster. will that still be ok to make? Also, he is very climby! So it would be easy for him to escape is there a way to make a top?
@addyidog1 Well that's what I do. Just once I wash the fleece and towels, I will turn on the washer for one small cycle to wash it out before I was a load of clothes. Plus, there won't be any poop if you shake the fleece outside.
@GuineaPiggs1 Yeah, use laundr detergent...just do NOT use fabric softner or it will take away the fleece's wisking ability. I put it on cold...but I guess it doesn't matter that much! :D
I have a dog.... how will i keep her from getting in the cage? She can jump over the only gate we have, and we don't have enough grids to make a gate. I want to put it on the floor so that it can be bigger (we don't have anything very big to put the cage on!)
@321guineapigz Oh gosh....I wouldn't take chances...your dog could easily kill your pig...If you have a door, you could close it....Depends on where the cage is located at...
@zombieminxz Oh yes! But he'd learned how not to and he eventually stopped. It wasn't a problem because he would never hurt the guinea pigs and he was declawed.
@zombieminxz Be VERY careful with your cat! Like98% of cats will try and hurt your piggy. Even my cat whose chill with my guinea pigs tried to eat my hamster! :o Cats act differently around different animals...
This was really helpful! I'm building a c&c cage tomorrow! 7 fish tanks including a 120 gallon makes it impossible to have a cage as big as yours but it's definitely a step up from what I have now!!!
How do you keep your pigs from under the fleece? I tried EVERYTHING, and they still burrow under there and poop all over the choropast(?).... It makes cleaning a very scary situation.
@Basketballchick Oh wow. My pigs only dig under the fleece rarely...So I don't have that problem. Have you tried clipping the fleece? Use binder clips! If you've already tried that...than just try putting bricks in the corners. Hope that helps.
Thank you so much... I'll do that next weekly cleanup. I had tried cutting the fleece to fit perfectly, I had tried blocking the edge with their hidies, everything... x.x I'll try binder clips :) Hopefully they'll behave better in their new apartment.
@petlover324 i can imagine lol but i wonder does it smell or anything cause i was thinking of switch since my mom doesn't have the money to keep buying the bedding :3 thanks! is there anything i need to note when using the fleece? :3
@smexyOrangez Does it smell? Honestly, it CAN get kinda smelly. My pigs don't smell because I clean the fleece twice a week and I have like a thing that makes my room smell good. If you clean it twice a week at least, you can't smell it.
Anything to note when using it is do NOT use fabric softener when washing it, fleece is measured in yards, and it's about $5-10 per yard where I get mine from a craft store called Joannes. Hmm...Oh and don't forget your towels under it. Any more quetions, ask!
That's an awesome cage for one guinea pig! Your guinea pig is sooooooo lucky, I have one guinea pig too and I built her a 3x2 cage, she LOVVVVVVVVVVVVESSSSSSS IT!
what breed of guinea pig is racer? he is extremelyy cute! how old is he? he is a ver well taken care of guinea pig. i have a mini rex that has a c+c cage too...
@InsightCreationz a small sign shop down the stree from me. The coroplast was only $11! If you're looking for coroplast, a small sign shop near you is a great place to find cheap coroplast :D
your cage looks really big and i like your fleece.
