nowadays... I cant find any gp with beckham head... means mohawk... style macam tu.... where did it gone to

i realise also no one talk about it so i share with u guys..my gp case is smaller around pea size..under her chin looks similar but the fur is still intact..the vet just make a small opening and drain the pus out..then clean the wound..he gave me solutions to clean as well and antibiotics for kimmi to prevent recurrent while the wound is still fresh

geli leh :c hope ur gp get well soon

My deceased Sheltie Gucci was having big lump (just like the picture shown earlier) under her throat, the vets said they could not have the courage to operate on her, as the chance of survival is slim during operation. In the end, she was suffering a slow and painful death, her lump burst eventually.

Woah such sudden unnecessary growth is indeed scary! I hope your GP recovers soon and well! Now I abit takut pulak I shall go flip my GP 360 degrees and see if there's anything abnormal

sorry for ur lost..well the vet should at least biopsy the lump to see what is it right?maybe ur vet dun dare to handle gp
she is..i have to dress her wound and give her antibiotics everyday..i read on internet and even the Dr say it's common in GP..I'm going for follow up next week just to comfirm everything is ok

what is the cause of the disease? dirty or wrong food?

Ya I'm wondering too so that we can take extra pre-caution

Fellow piggers... Is it hard to take care of guinea pigs? Need to clean their poops frequent? Do they give out bad smell?

just when i thought im having trouble litter training my Yu Wat, im now hearing the dreadful teeth chattering, since i brought home a mate for her.. unnamed, male, and separate cages for now.. sigh...

Its not that hard.

Guinea pigs like clean enviroment so its best if u clean it frequently.

They dont give out bad smell unless u have bad enviroment for them , that their fur touches their pee then yes smelly

it's not a disease..it's an abscess..Dr say it might be from scratching or got hurt and then got infection.. humans also got abscess..is when it is when pus surrounded by a capsule..i read internet tat it may be from eating course hay..and then got splinter and further on infection..

u are having two males together in a confine area? must be each one of it wanna

one male, and one female (Yu Wat)... plan to neuter the newcomer (male), since breeding isnt really an option at this point..

some google results tell me that i should let them fight around.. at least until blood is drawn..

Neutering is as expensive as a long hair guinea pig.. Hehehe.. Fight till blood is drawn.. Tried that doesnt work.. I have experience it b4.. if u started of with two male.. One of them will mounth another 1.. Once the boss is determined ..score is settle.. But once u introduce a female into the game.. The score never will get settle.. U jus got to separate the another male.. As only 1 gp will get the right to mate.. If the another 1 try to mate.. The fight will embroil.. Shed how many blood also no use..

seems today is better.. Yu Wat is more dominant than male.. but do you think nibbling on the ears is alright? he doesnt seem to mind getting nibbled on the ear.. haha they are sharing food as well.. i guess if it can go on for awhile more, they should be okay..

when i watch them fight, i get the feel that my Yu Wat is more of a dominatrix.. haha

^ the last time i introduced my male 3 months gp to my 5 month female this happen.



Yeah she bit his fur at the eye area off.

Now my tricolour which is about 5 months already is the dominant one. He always rides my macha and harima ( though harima is the 1 year 3 months gp he so weak)

and tricolour always rumbles = =. i thought got aeroplane pass by.. actually its him

Lucky not beat her eyes off. The fur grow back or not?

got a bit.. but that gp passed away.. got intestinal problem

I juz bought an abby tri-colour back home =) She looks bigger than my 2 months old short hair, so i guess it shud be around 2 1/2 months..I bathed her the moment she reach home (I think shudnt?) so that she can stay clean hehe..

Juz a doubt, abby's gp fur behind the ears memang quite empty one? Like u can see d skin colour 1? or is it fully covered like shirt hair?


iX3rukia, few weeks more i will take pics and show u hehe. Ur gp and mine stayed happily together, very cute =)
