Definitely sanitize anything you find outside before putting it in the cage, best to stick to approved plants/grasses/veggies in their habitat. Wicker baskets are also usually treated in varnish so use caution.

More natural things shouldn’t be something to worry about to much because when guinea pigs are in the wild, they will probably eat what they can..

TheCluelessBell i guess they mean a plant that isnt dangerous for the guinea pigs.. honestly i think they are just taking precautions but really just stuck to basic x

Hi Erin :) be careful with the wicker baskets. A lot of the stuff sold is treated with varnishes and preservatives which animals will ingest if they are chewed, particularly rabbits who nibble and destroy everything. This is VERY toxic to them. Make sure it's specifically made from pet-safe wicker or is 100% untreated and natural.

Great advice, I think soaking the wicker in warm water with like a cup (baking measurement) of alcoholic hand sanitizer overnight will pull most varnishes off of porous materials like wicker.

then you should look for videos of natural enclosures for hamsters. Rather than having plastic tunnels, it's much better to create a setup with a layer of substrate big and deep enough so that they can did their own tunnels.

Hi your so knowledgeable I was wondering if you could help me. My piggie has a suspected URI and was given Baytril for a week, his breathing got a little slower but then symtoms soon returned. The vet has now given sulfatrim, he's been on this nearly a week and breathing just as fast, nose still snotty looking no change. I called she said leave it the week as some antibiotics take longer . He eats very well but I'm struggling at what to do. Have you experienced anything similar? What length of time can it take to improve? Your videos are amazing 😉
