What are some good ideas to entertain my guinea pig2007-11-24 22:16:31

She doesn't have a buddy, and i can't get her one. She has a hut, food bowl, and water bottle in her cage.( her cage is pretty big). She gets bored sometimes i think.

Answers:

Try providing more of an enriching enviorment for your guinea pig. In other words, Don't just set a carrot in the center of the cage. Break the carrot up and hide it in various locations in the cage. Make her work for her food. It keeps her busy while getting exercise.

Another thing is to let her hide in more places. Guinea pigs like variety so put a variaty of shelters in places in the cage. (You said the cage was big, so don't offer one shelter, offer 2,3,4 however many you want!)

Another thing that is important for keeping a gp (I am too lazy to type guinea pig so much) busy is giving lots of things for her to chew. Give chew sticks or blocks every day for the gp to play with as well as grind down her teeth.

Another idea is to have a daily (Or weekly) "Floor time" This is when your gp can me supervised while being able to explore further around the house. Lay out food like carrots or celery to keep the gp out of trouble.

And yet another, Give your gp attention. As much as possible, HAND FEED fresh food instead of tossing it in the cage. This keeps your gp happy (Not to mention nice to you)

Well, I said alot today, hope I helped!


u can play with her! here some good ideas: 1) put on a baggy shirt and let ur guinea pig climb inside. it tickles! 2) take a play pen and let her run around. 3) take a play pen and chop up carrots and put the carrot bits all over the play pen and the guinea can run around eating the carrots. 4) any friends that have guinea pigs? set up a playdate! 5) teach ur guinea pig how 2 jump up the stairs. 6) do the guinea races! take another guinea and seperate the play pen in half and put down the guineas at the same time on diffrnt sides. whoever touches the end of the pen 1st wins! (hope i helped! cy!)
