Guinea Pig week - free nurse consults and nail clipping: 25th - 29th September
Guinea Pigs make lovely pets - inquisitive, friendly and fun they need to be kept at least in pairs. Their needs are no less important than dogs, cats or rabbits but ensuring those needs are met to their full will make happy, healthy guinea pigs.
We join the nation during Guinea Pig awareness week each year - this year it's the 25th - 29th September.
Guinea Pig Awareness Week, or GPAW, is a week of activities dedicated to improving the health and welfare of guinea pigs across the UK. Throughout the week, exploring what it means to be a guinea pig owner, top tips, uncovering interesting facts and more.
