Guinea Pig

Guinea Pig

The Guinea Pig (Cavia porcellus), also called the cavy, is a gentle South American rodent kept worldwide as a pet. It needs a roomy cage, a bottle, and — unlike many rodents — a diet with added vitamin C: grass hay, guinea-pig pellets, and fresh vegetables. Its teeth grow for life, so fibrous food is essential.

How do I bathe a budgerigar?

To bathe a budgerigar: pick a sunny afternoon with a warm room, fill a spray bottle with water, and lightly mist its back and sides until the feathers are damp; the bird will then preen and clean itself. You can also place a shallow basin of water (no deeper than its belly) in the cage and let it bathe on its own, then remove the basin promptly to avoid excess cage humidity.
