:How could I litter train my guinea pig? And, would Fresh Step cat litter work? I thoguht it would be too dangerous if they swallow it. I have a corner litter box but all they'd do was use it to sleep in and sometimes go to the bathroom in it. I just need a way to keep their cage cleaner and more maintenence free. I have to clean in almost daily and that's with two piggies in it. I just need some answers...thanks to all who help and Meryy Christmas!!!
Sorry to burst your bubble but litter trianing guinea pigs is literally impossible, I've tried it. They go wherever they want:) If you have to clean your cage almost every day then you probably don't have a big enough cage for them, and remember they WILL get bigger. DO NOT use cat litter they WILL eat it. Don't mind me asking, but how big is your cage, guineapigs will get to be over eight inches long. My cage is about three feet by two feet and my two girls have almost out-grown it. You might want to get a bigger cage, that would solve the problem.
