I think just like human babies, we are always nervous at first and worried of hurting our babies. And with guinea pigs it's the same. But practice makes perfect, and I'm due to do my piggies nails again this coming month, and I'm still nervous but with 15 piggies, I have to learn to be confident to do it myself. It costs a lot getting someone else to come to my home and do it.

We got our first piggie in September 22 and have since added 2 more. I still get nervous trimming their nails. (We have a dog and 3 cats that I trim their nails myself. So I know I can do it, I think it’s because they are so little I worry.) Tonight was the first time I got one of my piggies quick. I felt so awful I cried. So I put the nail powder on and between my daughter and I he got even more snuggle time. He’s our one that gives kisses. After 30 minutes or so he gave me kisses and snuggled right up to me. 🥰 I know he was saying he forgives me and loves me still. 💕💕

It's understandable to feel nervous when trimming your guinea pig's nails, especially if they are new additions to your household. It's important to remember that accidents can happen, and it's not uncommon for pets to experience a quick during nail trimming. However, it's great to see that you handled the situation calmly and took steps to comfort your piggy. Applying nail powder is a great way to stop bleeding quickly and reduce discomfort for your guinea pig. It's also heartwarming to see that your pet responded well to the extra snuggles and kisses, showing that they trust and love you. Overall, it's clear that you care deeply for your guinea pigs, and with some practice and patience, you'll become more comfortable with trimming their nails. Keep up the good work!

It’s best you do it. They hurt themselves when they scratch. You can simply cut enough to remove the sharp curved tips. The white part only. If you see pink, that’s too close. Stay calm and keep a good grip. You’ll do just fine.

Absolutely delighted to hear that you found our video helpful! Congratulations on your new Guinea pig! It's great that you have experience with trimming nails from your dogs, as some of the principles can apply, but there are a few nuances when it comes to small pets like Guinea pigs. If you ever have any questions or need further guidance, feel free to reach out. Best of luck with your new furry friend, and we hope both you and your Guinea pig have a fantastic time together! 🐹🐾

Your piggy looked so relaxed! Mine thinks I’m trying to break her in half! 😬 😩 Thanks for the tips! I’ve tried them all, but I’ll keep trying! Some days I get only one or two nails. Maybe you should design a special sling for nail cutting. Little holes for sticking their paws through that will help keep them secure 😂 easy-peasy right?
@GuineaDad

That's not a bad idea. Make sure to have some treats handy when you're cutting their nails. Even if you only get two nails clipped give out a treat and they will start associating nail clipping with treats.

At first cutting nails is a one person job. And halfway through it becomes a two person job....... My piggies have no patience. And churro always clenches his front paws when he knows the other side is coming so it's almost impossible to do his nails on the same day all at once. ........ Any tips on how to keep a guinea pigs paw unclenched would be amazing. As we try to hold his paw gently and then he death grips his paw so you can't ever get it open.

One thing you can try is to offer him a treat before or during the nail trimming process. This may help to distract him and keep his paws relaxed. ☺

My guinea pig bit me, not hard but just as a warning type. I cut his back foot nails but he doesn’t like me grabbing his front feet to attempt at cutting them. Any suggestions?
@GuineaDad
@GuineaDad 3 ай бұрын
It sounds like your piggy is a bit uncomfortable with front foot nail trimming. You might try getting him more accustomed to having his front feet handled gradually. Offer him treats and gently touch his front paws during relaxed moments until he seems more comfortable. Using a calming tone and providing a familiar, comfortable setting during the trimming process can also help ease his stress.

Awweeee you live my dream life!!! How cool your videos are about helping the piggies and having time to really spoil them like they should be!!!! 🤭🙃🫠 I wish I had more time and space for my piggies (both male so have to be separated unfortunately, through a c&c cage so they can still interact through the grid 😂) I love guinea pigs so much! My eldest is 5 now and still very healthy! The youngest is still a youngin' at 2-3 years in March ❤ Thanks so much for your videos and time you put in to bring us smiles and heart warming content. I believe guinea pigs need to be treated better overall! Thanks #guineadad 😊

@GuineaDad
@GuineaDad 11 ай бұрын
Hi there! We're glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful. It's completely normal to be concerned about maintaining your guinea pigs' trust after clipping their nails. To ensure their trust remains strong, here are a few tips: Positive Association: After nail clipping, offer your guinea pigs a tasty treat they love. This creates a positive association with the experience and helps them realize that good things happen even after nail trims. Frequent Interaction: Continue spending quality time with your guinea pigs, offering scratches, cuddles, and playtime. This consistent interaction reinforces your bond and assures them that you're not just there for nail trims. Gentle Approach: Handle your guinea pigs gently and calmly during nail trims. Speak in soothing tones and avoid any sudden movements. This will help them feel more at ease throughout the process. Incremental Progress: If your guinea pigs seem hesitant, take things slowly. You can trim just a couple of nails at a time and gradually work up to a full trim as they become more comfortable. Regular Routine: Maintain a regular nail trimming schedule so that your guinea pigs become accustomed to the routine. Predictability can help reduce anxiety. Remember, building trust takes time and patience. Your guinea pigs will likely appreciate the love and care you provide beyond just nail clipping, so keep nurturing your relationship with them. If they associate positive experiences with you, the bond will stay strong.
