You have to either tip them upside down or just lift their paw so you can see the bottom of their paw, then you have to look really closely for their veins in their nails. Take any type of clipper, although toe nail clippers work best, and cut their nail about a pencil tip distance away from vein or else you will make the guinea pig bleed.
Cutting your rabbit's teeth is actually pretty simple, but you need to be extremely careful. Flip your rabbit on it's back and set him/her so that he/she is lying on your lap on their back. (you might need two people for this). Take some large nail clippers, and with the other hand spread open your rabbit's lips/mouth. Do not clip too close to the gums. When you decide to clip, clip all the way through, as to not annoy your bunny. Clipping their teeth is much like clipping your fingernails - it doesn't hurt them... so don't worry :)
Guinea pigs are rodents and being so, their teeth are continually growing. Because of this fact it is important to provide some type of chewing block for your guinea pig at all times (these can be purchased at pet stores, be careful not to use just any piece of wood from your garden because some types might be poisonous or have pesticide residue on them). If your guinea pig has not been provided adequate means for wearing down their teeth, and they have grown too long, you can carefully file them down with a metal file.
Well if you want to cut your guinea pigs hair you just cut little bits at the end of because you don't want them to lose to much hair. When you do cut you guinea pigs hair obviously don't cut there skin or anything like that and after brush through the guinea pigs hair to make sure there is no loose hair to annoy them.:)
You don't. If your rabbit's teeth have overgrown, you need to take it to the vet for treatment. It is important to feed your rabbit dried timothy or alfalfa grass every day so it can keep chewing and grind its teeth down.
I dont think you do. You should give them plenty of chew toys.
don't cut guinea pigs hair unless u have a long-haired guinea pig i would take it to the vet
You could if you really wanted to but you don't need to.
Texel guinea pigs are very high maintenance pets. They require constant cutting of hair since it grows so fast on the animal.
It depends on what your looking for. Long haired guinea pigs are a little more high maintence because you have to brush them and cut there hair on there bottom. Other then that it just depends on the guinea pigs personality.
You should cut your guinea pigs nails once every month.
guinea pigs are born with fur unless the are skinny guinea pigs ( breeds with no hair)
Technicolly your not supposed to be cutting a guinea pigs' hair without a grooming specialist there with you becaus if you accidentally cut it, your guinea pig could have eternal bleeding and may lead to death. I know, tragiec very but im telling the truth!
no
guinea pigs with long hair. they needed to be brushed every day
No. Most domestic guinea pigs have short hair and freeze to death in the cold.
First of all, guinea pigs don't have fur, they have hair. That is why they are used for testing cosmetics and hair products. As a guinea pigs ages, it's hair probably gets just a little lighter or darker. But that is only true with colored guinea pigs, not albinos.
No! Have you seen what they do to guinea pigs? They keep them in such small GLASS CAGES! that proves PETCO cannot do anything good for your guinea pig. Not to be harsh, but you need to buy nail clippers from petco and cut them yourself. And NEVER, EVER let PETCO cut your guinea pigs nails.
When giving tomatoes to guinea pigs the way you cut it does not matter.
