i hate Mid Valley Pet Wonderland...
they put them together... (old,young GPs)
i saw the younger female being RAPE by DOMINANT MALE... grrrrrrrrrrrrrr
why they cant seperate...? so sad...
they not care for the pets but $$ is their primary...

hee...
Almost people at petshop nowadays always think $$$ is everything.
Never think animal care.

Actually I agree with you. Pity the petshop animals. All become traumatized ad pitiful.

About your GP, just feed your hay, pellets and fresh veges everyday (with vitamin c if can) it will become very chubby for you. Hehe...

hm... okok... but she is still baby GP... can she has veges?
i scare...

yes she can..
i oso bought kojiro when he's still very young..
and he can eat veggies.. so far he's still healthy and become fatter hehe

do u guys encounter this prob?
my guinea pig always drop the pallets into the cage tray...
n end up all the pallet i give them drop into the tray.
n i have to pick up again n put it bak to the bowl..

ME~ ME~ i mean my piggies....
n also the alfafa hay i giving them... mostly drop into the tray...
tats wasting food~

Haha...
Al..ways mooz.
Like they protest want other food.

anyway... jst to share infor..

i brought my torty to vet yest...
n was told tat torty had unclean or contaminated food, which caused his intestine got bacteria, tats y his poo got gel mucous and stinky... n he drinking a lot of water by instinct to wash off the bacteria...
the vet gav me anti-biotic, wth the advice of "sometimes small animal will die the nxt day after medication starts due to their body capability cant afford the changes"... i was when told me this... no chance to re-consider the medication... only can pray for his health...

i told the same thing to my mom... then my mom said "oh! maybe is tat jambu.. tat jambu wasnt fresh.. n torty ate most..." damn!! i told her not to feed piggies wth unclean food coz small animal having low immune capability, n she dont believe... n now she believe... waste my money to buy her a lesson!!

anyway, torty still looks healthy today, n wth lesser water consumption ady... seems the medication truly works...

Fuhh....

glad to hear ur torty recover back.

There are certain medicines that GPs cannot take. What is the name of the medicine he give you?

eh.. dont knw leh... the med is at home now...

but before she giv me tat anti-biotic, she said "we got 1 medication, but i m not vry sure can it treat on small animals.. let me check first"... n she go n call some one, ask ask ask in the call, confirm the dosage ady, then only she giv the med...

the call was quite "loud"... i can hear a guy say "YES! YES!" confidently in the call after asking further details... seems he is more experience on it...

is it? then we hav to buy many kinds of food for them?
laaaaaaaa~
my GP started not to finish the Alfafa HAy now, haiz~ so high quality food she also don wan finish it...
gota "knock knock" her head....

Rumizu & Limie! Your GP's are very adorable!
Make's me want to get more GP's...

@gchin
I'm glad that torty is recovering.
So that proves the theory that GP's don't really show that they're sick, eventho they are...

@Mooz
I have the same prob too.
Its like moca always take the pellet out of its bowl, and when she does that the food will obviously fall to the tray la.
I just changed the cage flooring with another type of mat, and the problem's solved.

Guys, those of you that toilet trained your GP's... what kind of litter training do you guys use? Do you use the Hi-corner litter pan or the Little John Hi-corner litter pan?

@Moozz
Haha, I solved the pellet prob, but then there's the poo prob lah pulak.
Aiyooo... pening jgk..
Thats why I wanna toilet train them.

Oh yes, just want to share something.
I bought my GP's at Pets Wonderland MV, and rite now I feel very kesian at them.
They got mites problem.. and they they're soo thin.. and their ear like been bitten before..
Very kesian lah...

Ey, nobody wanna answer my question abt the litter pan ke?

@limie
ohh.. my avatar was my previous piggies wen i had them 7 years ago.... they dont hav kids, but i dont knw y...

@farisd
thanks~ ^-^
wats the difference of "Hi-corner litter pan" and "Little John Hi-corner litter pan"?

@moozz
i also had the prob of using hour time to kutip pellet last time..
but now i put a 15cm x 15cm narrow net at the bottom of the food tray, so tat it wont fall down into tray whenevr they take out the pellet to chew...
now i only use ard 5-10min to kutip those pallets which fall out of the area frm narrow net, n the quantity much reduced...

my problem more on the fallen alfafa hay into tray...

haha...i know...
i put a cloth under tht bowl..
but they end up pee poo on the cloth..haha,,

Added on June 14, 2008, 2:22 pm

i thk toilet train hav to start since young...

my younger piggies got a toilet tray since the 1st day they came in... now their chance of pee poo out of toilet tray is almost 5%

the elder piggies got a toilet tray 2-3 weeks later... their chance of pee poo out of toilet tray is almost 15%
yet, it still much much reduced the messy cleaning job~

hmm...early stage training is vry important..

eh my gps very different leh.

i have 3 gps. 2 of them will eat until cukup n leave the bowl
the 3rd one never know how to stop eating - always eat until the bowl so clean, no nit to wash one. lol...
n their food dun drop to the tray either. they always sit on their bowl n eat, never take the food out

btw, my gps are toilet trained to pee/poo on newspaper as well, so their bowl is always clean.
