How often do you need to move a guinea pigs cage?

Answer 1

while you can keep them out for a loooong time as long as they have food and water. but beware lol if you are holding them then they will pee on you usually if held for more then a half hour tops (at least my guinea pig lol). i almost always hold her with a towel because of this reason. without food or water i would say that you shouldn't keep them out for more then a couple hours (and yes if they are grazing grass counts as food and you can keep them out for at least up to 3 hours in this case).

I'm not an expert so i would be careful. and remember if it is hot you should not leave your guinea pig outside unless it has a cool shaded place to go if it wants to and you should still not leave it out for more then half hour i would say if it is hot.

Answer 2

You should change the litter in your guinea pig's cage at least once a week if they are living alone. If you have more than one guinea pig living in the cage, it should be done more frequently.

Answer 3

You need to change your guinea pig cage on a regular basis and before it gets dirty and stinks. That is not healthy for the guinea pigs. I would change it at least once or twice a week, depends on how many guinea pigs are in one cage. Keep it dry and nice smelling. Don't forget to add those greens to their diet, along with the pellets as they need Vitamin C in their diet. Alfalfa hay, carrots & their tops, green leafy lettuce but not too much, broccoli, etc.

Answer 4

Guinea pig cages should be cleaned thoroughly at least once a week. Moving the cage should be done sparingly as frequent movements can cause stress to guinea pigs. It's best to place the cage in a quiet, draft-free area and provide a stable environment for your guinea pig.

Answer 5

You need to move a guinea pigs cage every time the grass is nearly gone.
