HEY I really want a guinea pig, so today i went out to look for materials to buy stuff to make a C&C cage before I actually buy a guinea pig, I managed to buy fleece and the wire grids. The only problem is that I cant find coroplasts big enough for the cage everything they sell in the bookstores are kinda small? Where can I get huge coroplasts?

I just bought a gp today. At the pet's store it was very friendly and it was okay with human touch. When i brought it home everytime i tried to approach it or touch it it runs away. ): It doesnt even go into the igloo. It just hides under my hay rack lol

ikea should have. the last time i bought was very huge it was more than sufficient for my 4x2 cage. the fleece i bought was 130x170 cm

I just bought mine at daiso ioi mall puchong new wing..2nd floor, rm5 each


Added on April 27, 2012, 5:15 pmI am kinda noob to gps, just bought mine last month..seriously i hate some pet store operator, the one i bought my GP from gave me piggy with skin fungal disease. I only notice the bald spot after 1 week. 

So long story short, im stuck with the piggy since it's already a week after i bought it. But the vet there suggested me to apply himalaya canisep cream. To my horror, it became worst sad.gif it leaves white residue n the bald spot became much bigger. I search high and low for a solution. 

Then 1 day i stumbled upon 1 blog. The blog owner suggested to gv my piggy a bath with warm water and with Margo Neem Soap.

Again, i search high n low for it. Giant, carrefour, guardians, watsons, mydin..u name it but to my suprise i found it in KK supermart near my place. Haiyoh!

So i bath messy once every 2-3 days n im glad to say it work well! No kidding. But there's a voice at the back of my head that are still unsure abt this treatment regime. It solve 1 problem but my messy might end up with another problem. :s

So what say u guys?

Hi! smile.gif same thing happened to me. infact when i first bought my guinea pig from pet stores he had eye infection and fungal infection -.- to my horror i brought him to the nearest vet, the doctor gave me some shitty eye cream and its eye got more swollen. I was terrified and did more research on good vets and found an exotic vet near my area smile.gif (didnt go to dr yeoh coz 1 idk how to get there. i live in ampang) the exotic vet wasn't really friendly though i have to say but he gave me a very good eye drop and told me to bring barney( my gp) back within a week because my dr said he had fungal infection as well. barney's eyes healed magically with the eye drop but whatever the doctor said was true, after 1 week of my first visit his fungal infection went viral. Then i did some research on how to treat it http://www.guinealynx.info/fungus.html has a few treatment suggestion. Miconazole cream was one of them. I went to the pharmacy and bought miconazole cream with miconazole nitrate 2% in it (the brand of the miconazole cream i bought is zarin) it worked effectively smile.gif u have to be patient and apply it twice a day for at least 3 weeks. smile.gif my gp healed within three weeks! biggrin.gif (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10150609107568389&set=vb.582833388&type=2&theater) this is when i got him not too long ago and u can clearly see his butt is infected with fungal infection)
(http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10150644216758389&set=vb.582833388&type=2&permPage=1 this is 3 weeks after smile.gif u can see there are tiny hairs growing back!
now he;s fat and healthy! biggrin.gif u gotta be patient
although after this incident im never buying gps from pet shop again lol the amount of money spent on vet and shit cost so much. might as well buy from breeders
