Hello I used to breed and show Abby's about 30 years ago as a teenager along with Sheltie dogs and a pony. Now after a few years away from the showing I am coming back to Cavies. I am enjoying visiting shows and learning most of what I had forgotten

I have decided on Sheltie Guinea Pigs and have my name down for a couple of piggies from a lovely breeder who will be much loved pets with a bit of hobby showing thrown in.

Looking forward to meeting every one and reading and learning (all over again) I am at the moment getting a piggy room ready and will post pic of that and the piggies once they are here..

Hi Sheltie! And welcome!

Aww that is fab news that you want to start showing again, I too have bred in the past (Only for a short time) And am now thinking of starting to breed again and eventually show but at the moment am still enjoying my pet piggies left over from breeding.
I bet you are soo excited to get your new piggies I definitely want to see pics and also would love to see your new setup when it is complete, I am also working on revamping my setup before I take the plunge to start breeding again.

Keep us updated on your new cavies when you get them and what you are getting up to

You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,Love like you'll never be hurt,Sing like there's nobody listening,And live like it's heaven on earth.

jordanthompson: hey I was wondering, can you use locker shelves like for school to build a loft in a cage instead of c&c grids? I have a few on hand and thought i'd ask. Jan 28, 2017 23:58:16 GMT

tatyana0404:
Hello, I want to buy cream selfs of super quality boy and girl. Tell me who has it? Mar 15, 2017 18:00:17 GMT

guinaaa: I need some desperate help! My guinea pig just fell like a foot off the ground into a trash can, he was wriggling because I was trying to dry him because he got wet. I think he broke a foot, because he is limping awkwardly and is moving but resting for now Apr 23, 2017 9:06:06 GMT

guinaaa: Please respond ASAP Im really scared because this has never happened before... Apr 23, 2017 9:06:33 GMT

julzgirl1028: My guinea pig just died... She was perfectly fine last ngiht. I fed her a few baby carrots and some cut up celery. I woke up and pet her, but she didn't move. So I stayed with her all day until she died in my arms... What could've happened to her? :'(

julzgirl1028: How often should I feed my guinea pigs carrots? :-X

caveycarer: Found my 20mth female pig collapsed in her run; no signs of illness prior. Picked her up and she was limp and hardly breathing. She then strained and passed what looked like a small blob of rubbery gelatine from bottom, then died. Any ideas what this was? May 11, 2017 21:02:52 GMT *

petlover: my guinea pig chipped his tooth half way so now it is stuck in the back of his mouth, he could only eat it if his food is bite size, he can't eat his pellets. What should i do? Jun 23, 2017 4:31:34 GMT

petlover: julzgirl, celery is stringy. You should'nt give it to your guinea pig very often Jun 23, 2017 4:33:32 GMT

piggilicious: Caveycarer, this sounds to be a discharge put out that lets out all of the toxins either before or after the pig dies

erniej: Thank you! Jul 31, 2017 20:21:57 GMT

texelpiggy66: So sorry for your loss. perhaps she had an infection in her uterus or cancer. it would have been quick. I have had many rescue piggies with problems. Even megacolon! Jun 10, 2018 4:49:48 GMT

sweetpatch: Hello??? I need help. Aug 12, 2018 20:31:12 GMT

stacyb1970: Hello, I have 2 7day old boars. Today one smells very strongly of pee around his head and face. I tried a warm washcloth but he reeks. Do pigs pee on each other? Thank you Oct 21, 2018 23:11:22 GMT *

kat trogdon: Does anyone get on here anymore? I haven't seen any new posts at all. Dec 20, 2018 4:35:06 GMT

sophiathepig: Im new here, how do I create a discussion? Aug 4, 2019 21:26:32 GMT

aridicus: stacyb1970 Young pigs that smell like urine, are usually sprayed by mom or another sow in heat. They think someone is trying to mount them and spray. Young boars can also spray behind them, similar to a sow, but usually when a little older. Jan 10, 2020 11:36:58 GMT

pepperthepiggie: Hi! Jan 18, 2020 23:29:17 GMT

milliesalad: I have a male guinea-pig who is sitting in his own pee. I took him to the vet in case he had a urine infection. There was a very slight infection so the vet gave him antibiotics but he still has the same problem. Any other thoughts. Aug 9, 2021 19:25:58 GMT

pokeoiz: help! my guinea pig seems very ill, shes about 2 and a half years old, whenever she breathes her nose seems blocked, apart from that shes eating fine and drinking fine, any idea what this could be? :'(
