How does a guinea pig die at 3 years old?
Every guinea pig is different. Some live to be 15 others don't even live to 1 year old. It's all about how they got cared for. If you clean it's cage every other day, groom it, give it a bath every so often, and give attention, it will probably live for a long time. It all depends on how it was cared for. And every guinea pig is different. How well a guinea pig is cared for plays a major role in its overall longevity however that is not the only factor. Many guinea pigs become victims to genetic diseases which are not your fault as long as you took it to a vet and it received the best treatment possible. Always keep a hawk eye on your guinea pig's health making sure to check for any sores, abcesses, weight loss, change in behavior, or stool/urine changes daily or as frequently as possible.

How does the mother hamster take care of her baby?
when the female hamster gives birth, put the male hamster into another cageand you should separate the babies from there parents when they are 3 weeks old because in many cases the female will eat the babies. Do not play with baby hamsters until they can see because most baby hamster are born blind. Also make sure that you give them extra bedding so that they don't get cold because all baby hamsters are born furless. Also when they are 3 wks old, separate the female and male baby hamsters as they will mate and it's not good for hamsters to give birth at a young age as they will die faster.
Can you use shredded paper with text on it or type on it for hamster bedding?
No. Scientifically speaking when the shredded news paper is in the rabbits bedding he will be tempted to eat it. However, so long as the paper is safe, there's nothing wrong with the rabbit eating it -- in fact, paper can add to a rabbit's dietary fibre content! Look for plain newsprint or cardboard (not bleached white), with no glossy parts, stickers, tape, and not a lot of printing. See the link below for a source for this information. It might be better not to shred the paper: let the rabbit shred it himself!
What kind of soap do you use on a hamster?
One of the most common questions I receive is: "Should I bathe my hamster?" The answer is NO.
A hamster should never be washed, since hamsters keep themselves clean. If you bathe a hamster, it would catch a cold and die.
Hamsters produce their own natural oils to maintain the condition of their fur and will spend a long time grooming. So I would not recommend bathing a hamster since it will not enjoy it and bathing may make the hamster's fur look worse. If your hamster smells bad then you should clean the cage more frequently.
Avoid looking at videos of hamsters being washed, since it is only cruel to wash a hamster. Hamsters will not love being bathed and they would die of a cold.
