Keeping Your Guinea Pig Well Fed

Eating well is living well. A big part of caring for your guinea pig is giving them a proper diet. As you get to know their personality and habits, you’ll learn which foods they like, what’s best for them to eat, and what should be avoided. But before we start snacking, let’s begin with the basics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Guinea pigs can eat a variety of fruits and vegetables such as apples, carrots, spinach, celery, and grapes. They should also have hay and fresh water available at all times.

The best food for guinea pigs is a combination of hay, fresh fruits and vegetables, and a quality pellet diet. Feeding hay should be a constant in the guinea pigs diet as it helps to keep their teeth in check and provide them with essential nutrients.

Feed your guinea pig on a consistent schedule—twice a day, morning and evening with a combination of hay, fresh vegetables and fruits, and a quality pellet diet. Fresh water must be constantly available, especially during warmer weather, as guinea pigs are susceptible to heat stroke.
