Guinea Pig ODOR !

Samanthamay Nov 01, 2007 11:41 AM

Hello everyone. I am looking for some advise/help.
I have a new pig that I purchased from a local pet store about a month ago. We are having an Odor problem with her.
It does not appear to be her fur and even the day after her cage is cleaned she give off the same smell. She is long haired. I use the Petcare Natural Bedding for you. I want to say that I think it is her breath that may smell so bad. Any suggestions or comments that can help me out on fixing the problem for her. Thank you

have you tried bathing her in a mild shampoo? If her fur is dirty that could be why she smells.

If after a bath she still smells, then I suggest bringing her to a vet. Odors could be from difference sources.

Without knowing what she smells like, hard to say if its a natural odor, dirty smell, or something produced by an illness.
