http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/ A daily webcomic about our guinea pigs. en-us The pigs often do this thing where they take turns. One eats pellets and the other drinks water. Then they swap. But when they add a third station into the mix, it's especially funny. Water, hay, pellets, repeat.It's a wonder they can keep it straight and not go out of order sometimes.]]> http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1417 Guinea@guineanfuzzy.com Fri, 12 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1417 We had to leave Grizzly at the vet for a week while we were out of town, and they were responsible for feeding him his antibiotic while we were gone. When we got back, I asked them how much trouble he gave them, because he always struggles for us. They said he was perfectly calm! They were even able to do it with just one person.I think he was just scared stiff with them. But with us he was comfortable enough to complain.]]> http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1416 Fuzzy@guineanfuzzy.com Thu, 11 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1416 This is what Bean learned to do at medicine time. When we approach him with the syringe, he uses his little paw to push us away. Sadly he's not strong enough to, and we always manage to get it in there.It's not nearly as effective as Grizzly's wild and random flailing! Luckily he didn't have to take his medicine for long.]]> http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1415 Guinea@guineanfuzzy.com Wed, 10 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1415 I don't know why the pigs hate their medicine so much when it comes in these tasty sounding flavors. Since Bean didn't like his molasses flavored medicine, we let the vet try marshmallow with Grizzly and he hated it even more.To be fair, marshmallow isn't a typical guinea pig food. It was probably too sweet. But the strawberry we tried later also didn't help much.]]> http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1414 Fuzzy@guineanfuzzy.com Tue, 09 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1414 Grizzly finally found a way to be calm in the pet carrier. We line the bottom with pee pads. So he managed to take one and bend it into a perfect arch over the other one to create a hiding place.It's not just hiding under the pads. All of the other pigs have tried that. It's that he manages to somehow make it shaped exactly like a pigloo.]]> http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1413 Guinea@guineanfuzzy.com Mon, 08 Jun 2026 00:00:00 -0800 http://www.guineanfuzzy.com/index.php?id=1413
