FAQ's

Here are some frequently asked questions about guinea pig grooming!

Where can I get my guinea pig’s nails clipped in Southampton?

Pampered Piggies offers guinea pig nail clipping in Southampton, Hampshire. Nail clipping starts from £6 and helps keep your guinea pig’s feet in good condition while reducing the risk of discomfort or health issues caused by overgrown nails.

How often do guinea pigs need their nails clipped?

Pampered Piggies recommends getting guinea pig nails clipped every few weeks. Nail growth varies between piggies, so regular checks are important, especially if nails start curling, catching or affecting how your guinea pig walks.

Do guinea pigs need grooming?

Yes, especially long-haired guinea pigs. Long-haired piggies need regular grooming to prevent tangles and matting. PDSA also advises that long or thick-coated guinea pigs may need daily brushing, while short-haired guinea pigs can benefit from brushing once or twice a week.

Should guinea pigs be bathed?

Guinea pigs should not be bathed often. Pampered Piggies states that bathing is only recommended one to two times a year, and MSD Veterinary Manual says guinea pigs rarely need baths unless they are soiled. Regular grooming is usually more important than frequent bathing.
