Coastal Cavy Guinea Pig Rescue

Today is World Veterinary Day!

Today we celebrate the big-hearted men and women who spend their lives caring for our furry family members.

Coastal Cavy wants to extend a special thank you to our favorite guinea pig doctor, Dr. Mark! Dr. Mark and staff have gone above and beyond to help us to extend and enrich the lives of many rescue piggies.

The drive is always worth it - and we are grateful for you, Dr. Mark!

Excellent advice from a seasoned guinea pig lady! Check out Skinnypigs1 Pet Palace on Facebook and YouTube!

Weighing your guinea pig is a great way to find out if something is wrong. They can hide illness, but cannot hide their weight loss. Often 100 grams or more is lost when unwell, so is easy to tell something is off that way.

Fluctuating 10 or 20 grams is not a big deal, that can change depending on the time of day. Weigh them same time of day, to get the most accurate readings.

As soon as you notice something is wrong, make a vet appointment. Guinea pigs can hide illness well and by the time you notice signs, they might go downhill fast.

It do be like that. 🙏
