Paw paw ointment, while generally safe for many animals due to its natural ingredients, is not specifically formulated for guinea pigs. It's crucial to be cautious, as guinea pigs have sensitive skin and unique dietary needs. Before using any topical product on your guinea pig, it's best to consult with a veterinarian to ensure it won't cause any adverse reactions.
An overgrown guinea pig nail is long and normally curled. If the nail isn't clipped, then the curled nail can begin to grow underneath the guinea pig's paw and cause pain. A guinea pig's claws should be clipped once a month.
The term "guinea pig" can be used metaphorically as well as literally.
It depens on what you need the medicine for. You can purchase a medical ointment from a feed store called Terramyosin* that can be used in a guinea pig's eye if it gets injured. Other than that, I would recommend going to a veterinarian if you feel your guinea pig needs medical assistance.
It is spelled "guinea pig". You got it right! :)

Cavy is a small domestic rodent very similar to a guinea pig. The name is often used for a guinea pig but this is not strictly correct.
When a guinea pig purrs it means it is happy and contented...my guinea pig used to purr every time I picked her up and snuggled into her ears....
The most common one is Cavy. There might be others but it is mostly Guinea Pig and Cavy, but they DO NOT come from New Guinea nor are they part pig. Take Care and god Bless! :)
