Start here: the most important guinea pig selection guides
New to guinea pigs, or looking to improve your current enclosure? Then don't start with individual products, but with the right approach. These pages will help you quickly choose what is truly necessary.
What do you need for guinea pigs?
Complete checklist for housing, hay, feed, bedding, setup, care, and transport.
Guinea pig cage selection guide
Choose an enclosure based on floor area, layout, walking routes, shelters, and daily maintenance.
Guinea pig food selection guide
Everything about hay, guinea pig food, pellets, mixed feed, herbs, snacks, and vitamin C.
Vitamin C in guinea pigs
Why vitamin C is important daily and how to practically incorporate it into your diet.
Guinea pig vegetable list
Which vegetables can a guinea pig eat, what should you give in moderation, and what is it better not to give?
Guinea pig droppings
Learn to recognize normal droppings and spot more quickly when food, hay, or health requires extra attention.
The foundation for every guinea pig
A good guinea pig foundation consists of several components that must fit together: space, a companion, hay, appropriate food, water, a dry bedding, hiding places, enrichment, grooming, and a transport box for vet visits or emergencies.
Guinea pig cage
For permanent housing with sufficient floor space, walkways, and shelters.
Guinea pig food
Suitable food for guinea pigs, in addition to hay, vegetables, and daily attention to vitamin C.
Ground cover
For dry spots, comfort, hygiene, and a stay that stays clean more easily.
Nutrition for guinea pigs: hay as a base and daily vitamin C
The foundation of guinea pig nutrition starts with hay. Hay should always be available and helps guinea pigs eat, chew, and stay occupied for extended periods. Additionally, choose suitable guinea pig food specifically intended for guinea pigs.
Guinea pigs do not produce their own vitamin C. Therefore, vitamin C must be included in their daily diet. This can be achieved through appropriate guinea pig food, suitable vegetables, and, where necessary, through supplementary products.
Guinea pig food and nutrition
From pellets to complete guinea pig food and specialty food.
Fresh guinea pig herbs
Fresh herbs and plants as a refreshing addition to your diet.
Nutrition in brief
✓ Hay is the daily basis and should be readily available.
✓ Choose guinea pig food specifically for guinea pigs, with attention to vitamin C.
✓ Vegetables, herbs, and snacks are supplementary and should be given consciously.
✓ Is appetite or droppings changing? Then look further into nutrition, hay intake, and health.
Guinea pig cage, C&C enclosure and extra space
For guinea pigs, floor space is particularly important. They do not run upwards like climbers, but move close to the ground. A good enclosure provides room to walk, pass each other, hide, eat hay, and use different zones.
C&C guinea pig cages are popular because they can be configured modularly. You can create zones for hay, water, rest, open run space, and toilet areas. A run or extra enclosure can also be helpful, as long as safety, supervision, grip, and hiding places are properly arranged.
C&C guinea pig cages
Modular accommodations with great freedom in size, shape, and layout.
Guinea pig runs & enclosures
For extra run-out, temporary zones, connecting, or safely fencing off.
Guinea pig cage accessories
For water, feed, hay, C&C fastening, maintenance, and practical layout.
Ground cover, pee pads, toilets and cleaning
A dry floor is important for comfort, hygiene, and daily checks. With guinea pigs, you often see designated urination spots, hay corners, and resting zones. Therefore, a combination of bedding, pee pads, litter boxes, litter bedding, and cleaning products is often the most practical.
For long-haired guinea pigs, bedding choice is especially important, as moisture and dirt can get trapped in the fur more easily. In C&C enclosures, liners, floor mats, and pee pads help keep zones organized.
Guinea pig bedding
Absorbent substrates for dry zones, resting areas, and daily maintenance.
Bedding for long-haired guinea pigs
Targeted choice of flooring for long coats, dry resting places, and less dirt in the hair.
Ground mats and peat mats
For permanent resting places, wet zones, and easier daily maintenance.
Guinea pig toilets
For fixed urination spots and more targeted cleaning in the enclosure.
Guinea pig cleaning products
For urine spots, toilet areas, water bowls, feeding areas, and daily maintenance.
Hiding, tunnels, gnawing and foraging
Guinea pigs need shelter to feel comfortable. Multiple houses, tunnels, and resting places ensure that guinea pigs can choose where to lie and avoid each other. This is especially important when keeping multiple guinea pigs.
Enrichment doesn't have to be complicated. Offering hay in different ways, mixing herbs into the hay, creating a tunnel route, or letting animals search for small portions can already make a big difference. Think low to the ground and keep pathways open.
Guinea pig houses
For rest, shelter, and safe places to choose from within the enclosure.
Guinea pig playing & foraging
For snuffle mats, treat boards, and quiet search moments.
Guinea pig gnawing material
Natural materials to nibble, discover, and keep busy.
Guinea pig cushions and baskets
Soft resting places for guinea pigs who like to lie sheltered and comfortably.
Guinea pig platforms and ladders
For low, wide, and stable extra zones when used appropriately.
Care, health and daily check-up
A strong guinea pig routine also consists of looking, feeling, and checking. Is your guinea pig eating well? Are the droppings normal? Is the coat staying clean? Are the nails not too long? Is your guinea pig drinking as you are used to? It is precisely these daily signals that help to spot changes more quickly.
In case of clear symptoms, loss of appetite, pain, shortness of breath, lethargy, blood, difficulty urinating, or rapid deterioration, consulting a veterinarian is the right step. Our information pages primarily help you to better recognize the signs and take more targeted action.
Guinea pig not eating
What you can see, which signals are important, and when not to wait.
Guinea pig teeth
More about food, chewing, hay, and signs that may indicate dental problems.
Guinea pig bladder problems
For signs regarding urination, urine, wet hindquarters, and daily checks.
Caring for a long-haired guinea pig
For coat, bedding choice, dry resting places, and daily care.
Season, transport and practical situations
You don't need some products every day, but it is important to have them ready. Think of a transport box for a vet visit, summer products for hot weather, winter products for cold weather, and packages for when you want to combine items conveniently.

There you will find explanations about nutrition, cages, vitamin C, behavior, bonding, taming, cleaning, nail trimming, droppings, vegetables, and common health signs.

DRD chooses: not just any guinea pig products, but products that logically fit together.
For guinea pigs, a choice is only truly right if it suits their way of life. A food bowl must be positioned practically, a house must provide a sense of calm, the floor must remain dry, a hay rack must be convenient for daily use, and an enclosure must allow enough room to move around.
That is why at DRD we look not only at what a product is, but especially at what it does in the enclosure. Does it help with feeding, shelter, hygiene, rest, exercise, daily checks, or freedom of choice? Then it gets a prominent place within the Cavia Webshop.

Frequently asked questions about guinea pigs and guinea pig products
What do you need for a guinea pig?
For guinea pigs, you need at least hay, guinea pig food, attention to vitamin C, water, a spacious enclosure, bedding or pee pads, multiple hiding places, a feeding area, a hay rack, a transport box, and products for care and cleaning.
Can a guinea pig be kept alone?
Guinea pigs are social animals and feel most comfortable with at least one other of their kind. A good combination, enough space, and multiple hiding places are important in this regard.
Why does a guinea pig need vitamin C?
Guinea pigs cannot produce vitamin C themselves. Therefore, vitamin C should be part of their daily diet, for example through appropriate guinea pig food, suitable vegetables, and, where necessary, through supplementary products.
Which bedding is suitable for guinea pigs?
That depends on your enclosure, guinea pigs, and cleaning routine. You can choose loose bedding, floor mats, pee pads, toilet bedding, or a combination. There are separate selection guides for long-haired guinea pigs and C&C enclosures.
How big should a guinea pig cage be?
For guinea pigs, floor space is particularly important. In practice, larger is often more pleasant, especially with multiple guinea pigs or males. In the guinea pig cage selection guide, we explain how to look at size, layout, and expandability.
Which houses are good for guinea pigs?
Good guinea pig houses are spacious enough, stable, and easily accessible. Multiple hiding places are important so that each guinea pig can choose its own quiet spot.
Which vegetables can a guinea pig eat?
Guinea pigs may eat bell peppers, chicory, endive, cucumber, romaine lettuce, zucchini, and small amounts of celery, among other things. Use the guinea pig vegetable list to feed them a calm and varied diet.
Why are guinea pig droppings important?
Guinea pig droppings reveal a lot about diet, hay intake, and bowel function. Fewer, smaller, soft, or no droppings are signals to take a closer look. In combination with reduced eating, contacting a veterinarian is important.
What is useful for a C&C guinea pig cage?
For C&C guinea pig cages, floor mats, pee pads, liners, water bottle holders, houses, tunnels, hay racks, and clearly defined zones are useful. This way, you keep floor space, hygiene, and the layout organized.
Which products help with cleaning?
For cleaning, bedding, pee pads, toilet bedding, guinea pig toilets, cleaning supplies, food bowls, water bowls, and a practical hay corner are useful. Removing wet spots and old vegetables daily makes a big difference.
