[Gpdd] Care: Piggie Space

[Jennifer Langer]

Erin and Frodo, 
Go to Cavy Cages at http://www.cavycages.com/ . They lay out the best dimensions for your Piggies. Keep in mind it is best to keep the new Piggie isolated for 2-3 weeks to make sure he isn't going to share any illness or mites with Frodo. Then you should start introducing to each other slowly, in neutral territory. Gradually increase the time they spend together until you feel comfortable leaving them alone together. Also you should visit Cavy Spirit at http://www.cavyspirit.com/ for information on Guinea pig social life. It provides very helpful info about first introductions, space they need to be happy, and the importance of quarantining new Piggies. I hope these sites help you out.
