๐ซ Supplies Buying Pitfalls Guide
1
When buying cages, don't just look at appearance - floor space is the key to guinea pig quality of life
2
Buying cheap low-quality wheels that are noisy and damage the spine is false economy; better to invest in a silent wheel from the start
3
Using cotton or newspaper as bedding: cotton can wrap around limbs causing amputation, newspaper ink is toxic
4
Feeding human snacks as staple food: high salt, sugar, and oil severely damages health
5
Buying all toys at once wastes money; buy essentials first and add gradually
๐ก Money-Saving Tips
1
Storage box modified cages cost half as much as brand cages, great for DIYers
2
Buying bedding in bulk is cheaper, large paper cotton bags are 30%+ cheaper per unit
3
Buy guinea pig food in large bags and portion it out, cheaper and fresher than small bags
4
Wooden chew toys can be replaced with apple branches, natural free dental tools
5
Bath sand can be reused by sifting out dirty parts and adding fresh sand
