GPLover : But don't EVER give your guinea pig a bath, unless the vet says so. It can give them a cold! (mine caught a cold over a year ago, and he STILL has it!) :(
GPLover : Yeah, I've read that yogurt and dairy products are bad for guinea pigs, so I've never fed mine any yogurt treats or anything like that, even though the pet store may claim that they're safe for gps
