When I was holding my guinea pig on my lap, he would grab my sleeve and give it a yank when he needed to go.
@@josie5403 It was! William peed on me a few times when just a young piglet, then never again for the 8 years I had him. So cute.
aaaaawwwww2 how cute is this please!? 🐹
Yes ours too!
Haha
@@Cat-hz6ox And it's not like a mouse or rat peeing on you. It's a flood in your lap!😄
Omg your guinea pigs look so calm when you smooth there chin!!!! I’m dying of cuteness
Harvey ETN thank you! ☺️💖
Harvey ETN please don’t die!!! 😅💖
Heeheeee
Thanks it only took my piggy’s about three days to figure it out!
Isabella Sullivan yayyy!!! That’s great! 😁👍🏼💖
how old are your babies??
Lydia Jade mine were 5 months old and the little one just turned 7 weeks old and so far she’s good but needs more time to be fully trained. 💖
PetiteCavy aww, i got 2 skinny pigs when they were 2 years old so i don’t think it will work :(
honestly miss using fleece because we’re using shavings instead and it’s so messyyyyy
I’m using shavings to
I tried that trick of putting their poop in the litter tray as soon as I brought them home and although they poo there and everywhere they seem to be peeing in it exclusively so I'm thrilled! Only took them a couple days, very smart little animals.
Very hard to train them but it's worth at ends. Happy guinea pig
I'm Happy Guinea Pig! Happy guinea pig to you as well! 😄
my youngest goes in one place on his own! it’s pretty funny actually, even when he’s running about he wont pee unless there’s a dustpan or tray/box for him to jump in haha
Madii Erhard Wow that’s awesome! Such a smart piggy you have! 🤩💖☺️✨
That’s fabulous!
My little MOUSE pottie trained herself. During her second year, I put a little glass dish (a candleholder, actually) with a WIDE rim on it into her enclosure, and she would perch on the rim with her back end over the "bowl" and take care of things -- most of the time.
I'm not sure how much the daily cleaning procedure affected her behavior, but I very often took her enclosure (an acrylic fish tank) into the bathroom with me in the morning to clean it up while I was getting ready for work. (Disclaimer: I understand that this is a lot easier to do for a mouse tank than for a guinea pig corral. Your results will necessarily vary!) Mousie was always EXTREMELY interested in anything I was doing, and she spent a lot of time out of her enclosure, observing the world from my shoulder, running around inside my shirt, peeking out of the sleeve cuffs.
I really believe that she picked up on the fact that there was a bowl where the "giant mousies" (humans) put their stinkies, and she wanted one too. Once I gave one to her, she immediately used it correctly. I would praise her profusely for using her little latrine, and then take it out to dump it and wash it for her. >sigh< I miss that little girl so-o-o-o-o- much ...
When u were petting them. The little teeeeth. So cute. Thanks for this video!!!
Jeri Cakez 🥰 Thanks for watching!
Hi
I guess her mom taught this mine already does this an she popcorn's every time I walk by an say hi or take her out its instant zooms an popcorn. 😂 we have had her 3 days she has been thr cutest blessing.
What’s sad is that those litter trays are the size of some people’s enclosures. 😔
This cage is also too small, though better than many, yes.
@The pigeon Weirdo Just because we're used to seeing guinea pigs in small cages doesn't mean anything bigger is ideal. They like to have a lot of space to run about. This cage is too small. Yes, it's better than many, but it's still too small.
@The pigeon Weirdo We are all used to seeing guinea pigs in small cages because that's how the majority of them are kept. And I'm not judging anyone, I'm saying the cage is too small. It is and you agree, so what's your problem? Please stop with this offended nonsense. We're adults and I said a cage is too small. I didn't say she should be hung for it! Good grief!
@The pigeon Weirdo Again, we are all used to small animals being kept in small cages. I didn't say you do it. I didn't say I do it. I didn't say you or I think it's right to do it. I said it's what the majority of people do. Which it is. Again, what's your problem? Why are trying to argue with straight up facts?
@The pigeon Weirdo Lmfao. THAT was the point I was making in the first place! That people see a cage that is a bit bigger than usual and think it's ok because mostly we see them in tiny cages. So you just argued with me to end up saying the exact same thing I said several comments ago!
What calm, tame, beautiful piggies you have!! :D
Aww thank you!! ☺️💖
Our pigs do this naturally. We give them hats to hide in. They turn them over, for buckets to sit in. We stuff them with hay. This is where much of it goes. Their floor stays much cleaner.
my guinea pig poops a lot so hopefully it will help
Omg same like there is poop everywhere
@Kleiner Macias same here😂
Beautiful home for those little cuties!!
I have to clean my little buns of joy every TWO DAYS! But this really helped!
For my piggies I use a corner litter tray with the safe litter mixed with paper bedding and have a hay rack right next to it so my piggies will mostly do there business in the tray while eating. Around the tray I also have some bedding in case they wander a bit and go potty outside of that area but other than that they are pretty good at going in the litter tray. Of course they poop in other parts of the cage but nothing too excessive or crazy like it used to be.
I potty trained one of my guinea pigs and whenever he needs to go he just gives you a hug
Thank you so much! This hopefully will help a lot
I’m going to get a guinea pig today that is why I watched this video and thanks 🤗
Ashnoor Talib aww that’s so exciting! 🤗
Guinea pigs usually pee and poop while eating hay. It would help to move the hay over the litter trays. Also placing some hay in the litter box will encourage them to step in. Also horse kilned pine pellets help with litter scattering and keep the smell to a minimum. Good luck and good job. 👍🏼🎉
You do a great job caring for them lucky little guinea pigs
Great vid. You encouraged me. I shall try it again on the stubborn ones.
i had no idea i could potty train them ! omg this is a lifesaver
i love how tame her guinea pigs ❤ so cute. mine are still getting used to me
New sub!
Thanks for such a amazing vid will definitely help when i get my piggies as my pair of piggies passed away 2 months back ....
Thanks for this, I will use this tomorrow after school bc tomorrow my “new” pig is moving into my room! Here’s a quick story if you may be concerned...
My older (16 yr old) sister has the guinea pig in her room, and sadly she neglects it, the cage isn’t that big (I’m saving up for a new cage, I get 10 dollars a week because I’m just 12.. so I’ll be saving up!)there is poop everywhere, there is only one item in there which is a small ‘cave’ thing? And whenever I go visit it, it usually has no water :( plus, my sister barely feeds it well. But that’ll change tomorrow and I’m real excited, I’m doing lots of research too :)
Very sweet of you. He will be very happy with you 🥰
you are and will be a great pet owner thank you for sharing this story keep it up and reap the rewarding feelings from the animals that will love you for this.
How is it going?
Hm.. Maybe you could ask your parents to get a second one? They're actually group animals and get lonely when they're alone. But it's amazing how you want to take the responsibility. I'm sure it will be happier with you!
im 14 and dont get any allowance lol
I’m getting a guinea pig for my birthday soon my brother is also getting one so thank you for this!
Thank you. Such cute piggies
Great job. So Patient.
Awe your piggies are so beautiful & the tri colour one looks just like our adopted piggie Lyra
Anne marie Whiting aww tysm! 🤗 Lyra must be so adorable! 🥰
Really informative and cute video! Thank you for this! ❤️🥹
OMG I can´t! They are sooo cute!
AHHH THEIR SO CUTEE. yess this helped my guinea pigs they got potty trained and only go in there bin
I recently saw a young girl n her dad about to buy guide piggies 💞 at Petco and I did politely tell them cause I’m learning too n I’m a rescue piggie mom (some horrible person/family abandoned two in a box on the streets) that the box they were checking out to buy is too small …I get one ain’t got space but some so called homes r just too small n it’s a lot of work but how can u not love to care for those little cute lives they r cute n r super entertaining to watch when they r active. And I also always recommend very special RUclips channels I have learned from
Thank you this helped
Thank you for sharing this.😁
Very fine video with important information and advices😊
Ulla Jørgensen thank you! ☺️
Thank you I did the same thing for a while, with the trays but had similar issues with the bedding, , now I have small potty pads that help, but I have to change a lot . I think I will switch to a larger one . Like what you have . THANK YOU
Chyna Me Glad to hear we had similar issues! I ordered the potty pads (rectangle ones) from etsy shop and they are quite good!! 😄💖
Are you the voice actor for BMO in Adventure Time?

@@melodicazure lol
@@PetiteCavy Yw! sorry im late lol
i am in love, so smol and fluffy
Thankyou so much. Guinea pigs are SO smart. I had adopted one guinea pig followed this method and he actually was pooping there immediately. The second one I got is a pooper everywhere lol hopefully he will follow his brother and go poo in the litter box
Thank you so much
Ericaj0119 you’re welcome ☺️💖
I want to litter train mine
They are so cute
So cute GUINEA PIGS
Samuel wang Thank you! ☺️
They look so cuteeeeeee 😍🥰🥰
• CHARMNAII • thank you! ☺️💖
Thanks
Soo I suggest using pellets to go into the litter box DO NOT USE LITTER! Litter can kill them if they take one bite out of it. Add a bunch of hay so they feel comfortable. I think those are some suggestions to people who also need some advice.
Thank u it worked out
Her:find a place where your guinea pig poops the most
Me: how my dang guinea pigs poop the most everywhere 😰🥲
Excited to get my very own guinea pigs tommorrow thx chu
Amnah M. Khan awww how exciting!!! 🤗💖✨ yayyy! ☺️💖

Sammi Fruitbat 😂 That’s awesome! Lucky you! ☺️💖
Thank you 👍🏼
I am planing to get a guinea pig so this help thank you 😊
Adele T that’s great!! Yayy! 😄
PetiteCavy thanks☺️
For the, step that says see were they normally go to the bathroom there are people who use little bits of paper or things like that, that are meant to hide the poop
Yes that is true
Do I have to have a litter tray for each guinea or can two guineas share a tray, ur video was so helpful thank u💕
hope this tip will work to all my poop machines, thanks
Thanks i need the help !
So cute
They look so fuzzy!
I want to litter tray them but I haven’t got the space, what should I do? Also if I do find space should I place it upstairs or downstairs in the hutch?
Hanar Hama hello! I would recommend to place the litter tray in the same level as where your piggies eat. Once you have figured out the best location for the litter box, a piece of fleece bedding could replace the tray if you don’t have much space. 💖
guinea pigs and rabbits poop is so cute, is defined and dried, not like bigger animals.
Which bedding do you use? I see it's Living World's. Would hay work?
What's the size of your cage? I'm asking because I'm interested... I have a 120 cm x 60 cm wooden cage... But i don't know if this is too small for two guinea pigs
Do you do the same if your cage is full of bedding not towels? My guinea pigs poop a lot which makes their cage very stinky 😬
Ive homed rescues for 7 years.
If you will use plastic trays such as that, be alert in case one or more of the pigs is a plastic chewer. Most arent, but some are and they could get blocked up and die a horrible painful death. Any signs of nibbling on those trays, get them out. My method is somewhat similar. I use cafeteria trays with an old towel and a fleece on top. These go under the hideys and in corner spots they have chosen. The fabrics are washable and reusable and are changed daily.
It’s works!
Dave O yayyy!! 😃
@@PetiteCavy what did you use in the litter tray what is the bedding you use ?
I had my guinea pigs out for lap time for 10minutes.i counted how many poops my 2guinea pigs did. 20 poops! say that's roughly 10 poo's each, that means they roughly poo 1 poo a minute. they poo more than they pee!it's the other way round for us. I think that is why it is hard to train piggies. they don't want to constantly be going toilet every minute to go poo or pee! I don't blame them now for poo and peeing everywhere....even though it is mega annoying. but i will try these tips to see if it makes a difference thank you!
I have the same grey giraffe fleece!!
That is a cute yorkie
My entire cage is a series of removable fleece pads, if you will. Underneath that is a large fleece blanket, and underneath that are wood pellets. I’m able to pull out the small pads daily and shake them into the trash can. The bottom blanket layer is just there to add more comfort and so that the pellets don’t stick to the small pads when shaking them out. At the end of the week I change everything. The pellets last for months and I just scoop out the wet parts, which by the time the poo makes it through several layers of fleece is hardly anything. You need a layered system; kind of like those replaceable carpet squares you might see in an office. They poop in one or two corners, mostly, but because it’s so easy to shake out the small fleece pads, it doesn’t matter where they go. The whole floor is removable in pieces and all pieces fit together like a puzzle.
Ooh nice. I have the exact same thing minus the pellets :) got some protection underneath the big fleece Incase they pee and it gets through it somehow.
My cage is a patchwork of pads that I shake out as needed when they poo on them. Usually morning and night. When the individual pads get pee’d on I replace them with clean ones. I wish that they would just pick one pee corner, but they haven’t. I wind up washing lots of piggy laundry
@@zalkona5051 Yeah same for me. I just watched their entire flees pads and the main one today.
Could you use cat litter or does it have to be specifically Guinea pig stuff?
My guinea pig mainly poops in his hide out which I also don’t have a litter box and if I did his hide out is to small to put a litter box in
What bedding for litter do you recommend in the UK
Harvey ETN Aspen, paper bedding or fleece. Cedar and pine wood bedding can cause respiratory issues. 💖
I love watching you pet the guinea pigs and rub their necks.
Aspen bedding is not absorbent. Which kind is ? How much bedding do you put in their cage ?
Awwwwwwwwww I’m trying to convince my parents to let me get Guinea pigs!
Update it worked I’m getting two in a few days😆
How large is your enclosure and where did you get it
how do you stop the tray from tipping over
The pigisus are tooo cute
my piggies don’t really have a special place to do there business so whenever they feel like it they just go 😂
idk according to the "scotty's animal" channel he recommends against aspen wood but prefers kilm dried pine wood? i think due to its smell?
btw you have BMOs voice from adventure time :D
And you’ll find people who recommended against pine and are in favor of aspen. Ask a vet, none of these Guinea pig “experts’ have any idea what they’re talking about.
Where do you get your fleece liners?
Why am I so late to this? I'm gonna try this.. But I thought them eating their own poo was good for them?! They won't accidently eat the litter pellets will they?
Ahhw E-Any They don’t eat all of their poops, they excrete 2 kinds of poop. They eat the one called « caecals » that contain essential vitamins, such as vitamin K and B-complex. No they won’t accidentally eat their litter pellets, if so, it’s not harmful it’s paper bedding.💖
what are you using for their houses?
My guinea pigs are 2 and I’ve tried a few things maybe they can’t be trained because I should have done it when they were younger but if someone has trained their older guinea pigs please give me some tips
Do u put them on a certain temperature or do I not have to?
ItzJustSamantha 123 Room temperature. The ideal temperature range for guinea pigs is approximately 65-75 degrees F (or 18-24 degrees C) 💖
PetiteCavy ok thxsss
