@andreasiwak2651 4 года назад

I took in a stunted rescue just like her. She didn't eat hay at all and I had to grate all her veggies otherwise she couldn't eat. She also had spurs on her teeth and had to go for a dental and it saved her life. I was told she wouldn't be eating much after the dental as her mouth would be sore, but she ate like a beast immediately after surgery and has now grown a lot. She was only 300g at 6 months old and now is 920g at 1 year! Very proud of her recovery, she's a fighter.

@angeladouglas1695 4 года назад

I love these videos! I have never had a Guinea Pig before and was talked into by my daughter who had done her research. We got a young boy from a local animal shelter just two weeks ago. We loved him so much that we decided to get him a baby brother from the Cleveland Animal Protective League. There were two little boy babies there, and I ended up taking both of them. So I suddenly have three! My daughter and I watch all of your videos and tend to say, "Well, Saskia says...". We even took back our pet store bought habitat and built a nice large one per your recommendation from a different video. Keep up the great work!

@ndavies5968 4 года назад

That's really cool 👍. Just be careful when they hit teenage. 3 boars will 90% of the time fight. Meaning you can end up with 3 pigs that just won't get along again.

@rachelycachooey 4 года назад

I wish I had watched your videos a couple years ago when my Nutmeg was sick.. The doctor told me that they knew something was probably wrong with this teeth but they didn't know what but it was likely malocclusion. The only option they gave was to put him to sleep! He was such a sweet boy and I miss him everyday. I wish I had knew more about guinea pigs at the time. You have taught me so much with your videos and I am now able to pay attention to the little things and understand what is going on in their bodies and seek appropriate help when necessary. I am so thankful for what you and the team do to help all those little piggies! I wish I still lived in Cali so I could come and visit!

@gboyer1901 4 года назад

I lost my sweet wee boy recently from over grown molars. I live in New Zealand and we syringe fed him for over a month, calling all over the country trying to find someone who was confident or experienced. Most vets said he needed to just be put down. It makes me so sad thinking we could have saved him like this wee girl if there was a vet nearby who understood piggy's teeth. Hope she continues to recover she is adorable!

@trancelove1234 4 года назад

There is a company in the UK that sells the tooth cutting items if you are ever in that position again. I think they have how to videos online to do it yourself. It's risky, but if there is no hope otherwise it is worth a try

@@gboyer1901 they do have the materials to do the back mollars as well. My strong preference is to have an experienced vet do it, but if the only other option is to be euthanized it is at least another option that may have a happier ending.

@feltetteluvtomfelton 4 года назад

Saskia, you and your team are a WEALTH of information. I am astonished by you and your knowledge of these creatures. I can guarantee that you know more than most exotic vets. Would you ever consider writing an e-book or something of the sort so that NEW and SEASONED guinea pig owners can refer to? Even knowing something as simple like guinea pigs won't choke on bell pepper seeds would be a major help to ALL. In pet stores, there are books on guinea pigs geared toward new pet owners, but I can guarantee it doesn't mention that vitamin C drops are denatured and made ineffective when exposed to sunlight, or that two male boars CAN be bonded, or that pet store cages 9/10 times are NOT suitable for piggies. I adore your channel, your organization, and what you and your team do each and every day. My piggies love your channel too! Showing people that piggies are NOT secondary pets. Instead, they are FAMILY members and should be loved and treated as such. Much love and admiration, Clara (and my precious boars!) Nicky and Oliver

@jenjimin9662 4 года назад

4 out of my 5 pigs puff up while eating. The 1 that doesn't is an abyssinian and if she does puff I can't tell due to her fur. They seem to sit with their back legs closer to their front so they look shorter but fatter. I heard it was to look bigger and intimidating for other pigs to leave them alone. I have no clue if it's true at all, but it's cute :)

baby piggies everywhere! Great video footage of guinea pigs in general! I really enjoyed this long form, “hanging out with Saskia” type video!! I hope the little one feels better soon. I totally agree that this teeth issue developing so early in the life cycle may be a sign of a possible “special needs” type situation. She does take to the syringe feeds totally well, and being totally adorable at the same time...so even if this is some sort of chronic/congenital issue she might need an experienced owner who can look after her properly...keep an eye on her teeth and feed as needed. She’s totally adorable tho!! 🤗

My 10-month-old is 500 grams and looks like a baby, despite lacking for nothing. I've been syringe feeding her again tonight because she seems to be uninterested in hay. My vet says she just lost the genetic lottery and will always be small and likely not live too long. Your syringe feeding videos have been a life saver, for sure!

@cpizz4022 4 года назад

she is so tiny I hope you can nurse her back to health. LONG story short about 6 yrs ago I rescued a lil piggy just the exact look as her from someone who was trying to feed him to a snake after two days the snake never touched him so I begged if I could take him home and he lived 4 yrs. with me . But same behavior didn't want to eat not "normal" eating behavior only thing I could possible think is he was never given "food" or the proper kinds like fruits n veg as a baby maybe if anything just pellets after the original owner got him from who knows where. Possibly he was traumatized but it took some time and lots of love he did come around to eating/acting like a "normal" piggy but def never was like ANY other I had before or after.

Although rare, some pigs can stay small (like months old while being about the size of an average 12 week old) despite eating enough and otherwise being active. Cysts on the ovaries or similar might be affecting them vs. what they are eating.

She’s exactly like one of our boy. They exact colour ! At first we knew something is off about him because of the way he eats. We sent him to the vet to get his teeth trimmed, it took about 3 days for him to get used to eating normally. He’s doing great now. He often got lost in his own world and started to stare into the blank but he’s super adorable. Its so good to see another piggies that has the same condition as him.
