These animals need a wooden enclosure that should be with walls 30 cm. high, open on top and having a minimum floor area of 3,000 square cm. The enclosure can also be made of metal or plastic, but with a solid floor. It is necessary to cover the floor of the cage with a thick layer of newspaper. Put wood shavings as bedding on the pieces of newspaper. Do not use sawdust or cedar shavings. These animals cannot see clearly at a distance; they have no depth perception; and their ability to access distances and heights is limited. But they have color-vision and are able to notice the slightest movement. These animals are vegetarians and they do not eat much.

In captivity they can be fed with prepared special food for these very animals, supplemented with carrot, beetroot, broccoli, cabbage, peas, green leaves, but not lettuce, it causes colic. Sometimes a treat for your pet can be fruits. Also, they should be provided with a salt ring and “chews” to gnaw on them. These animals know what is good for them and also how much is good for them. But still do not give them plants that you know are unsuitable and try to stick to plants you can be sure are safe. Don’t forget to supply them with fresh, clean water. You can use a water bottle and it is really the easiest method. Get guinea pig info, photos, and a great picture from a comprehensive site dedicated to the animal.
