Guinea pigs :wub:

We were having a family vote on names, and I wasn't allowed Shitonna and Tits. I've failed GRCade

Be careful what you feed them. They're prone to constipation and I spent 3 years having to regularly squeeze massive compacted turds out of them on a regular basis. Hope you're not currently eating your tea.

How do you go about doing that, then?

Call one of them Vermi.

It's probably like milking a cow really. Except there's no milk. Only gooseberry fool.

What were you feeding them?

Basically you can see a massive ball of shite almost hanging out its arse. You pick the poor little fella up and just squeeze it out. Whilst it squeals (unsurprisingly). And guinea pig gooseberry fool doesn't usually smell, but when it's been backed up in there a while, then it does. Awfully.

With regards food, just the supermarket pellets and veg cuttings. I think some, particularly males, are just prone to it.

EDIT: A quick google search suggests it's not diet. Have a look at guinea pig impaction if you're interested (weirdo).

If they're anything like rabbits, you'll want to feed them a diet that's 80% hay, with the rest made up of pellets and dark leafy veg like kale and small amounts of spinach.

They're gorgeous, by the way! :wub:

Guinea Pigs also like lettuce, carrots, cauliflower greens, and other veg.

Carrots are fine, but they should be given in very small amounts, as they're full of sugar. A slice the size of a 50p piece is what my vet recommended for my rabbit

Romaine lettuce is quite good for them, but Iceberg lettuce is terrible for both pigs and rabbits because they have almost zero nutritional value and tend to give them the runs.

Problem solved, just add a moderate amount of lettuce to keep them regular.

There's a Qwertee sale on (most at £7) if you like your pop culture tees. This Godzilla/Great Wave mash up is £4: https://www.qwertee.com/product/king-of ... ers-sumi-e I was tempted by the 2020 Stephen King one but you know, I'm all for gallows humour but y'know, people died so... yeah, maybe not. (That and I feel it would have looked much better sans the 'written by'.)

edit: woop! only cost me £8.75 as I had a unused loyaltee free tee code :toot:

Didn't you already buy a pair? (I think they were in pastel shades...) Are they for regular wear, or do you workout in them?

i may have a shoe problem
these are for regular wear. they are bloody comfy

These are the Uniqlo slippers I got and their comfy AS strawberry float :wub:

I bought them in navy as well as grey

just got some moccasins for slippers recently so cant really justify another pair of slippers but they are very nice :wub:
