Discover the ideal bedding for your beloved Guinea pigs at DRD Knaagdierwinkel®, the online Guinea Pig Webshop with a wide selection of high-quality bedding!
Guinea pigs walk on soft surfaces in the wild. Their legs are therefore not made for hard ground covers. The Guinea pig's legs can be damaged by hard ground cover, but also by a damp surface. Guinea pigs also have difficulty withstanding dust. The animals' respiratory tract can become irritated by dusty ground cover. It is therefore important that the bedding for guinea pigs meets the following conditions:
✔ absorbs well
✔ Dust-free
✔ Gentle on the paws
Guinea pig bedding must be well absorbent
One of the most important criteria that the ideal ground cover must meet is excellent absorption. Good bedding absorbs moisture effectively, resulting in a dry and comfortable living environment for your guinea pigs. At DRD Knaagdierwinkel® we offer a range of bedding options specifically designed to meet this need. Whether it concerns hay, sawdust or other high-quality materials, our Cavia Webshop has everything you need to create a comfortable home for your little friends.
Guinea pig bedding must be dust-free
Another essential aspect of choosing the right ground cover is avoiding dust. Guinea pigs are sensitive to dust, and exposure can irritate their airways. A dust-free bedding is therefore very important to ensure the health of your guinea pigs. In our Cavia Webshop you will find a selection of dust-free ground covers that have been specially designed with the well-being of your rodents in mind.
The bedding must be soft on the paws
It is also important that the bedding is soft for your guinea pig's feet. A soft surface prevents paw problems and offers extra comfort to these curious and playful animals. At DRD Knaagdierwinkel® we understand the importance of softness, and that is why you will find various options that meet this requirement in our Cavia Webshop. From natural fibers to special soft materials, we have the ideal bedding for your guinea pigs.
How high should bedding be for guinea pigs?
But how do you determine the ideal height of the bedding for your guinea pigs? It is advisable to provide a layer of ground cover of at least a few centimeters. This allows your guinea pigs to dig and tunnel naturally, which encourages their natural behavior. In addition, a sufficiently deep layer provides protection and insulation, making your guinea pigs feel safe and secure.
Does the entire guinea pig enclosure need to be filled with bedding?
For guinea pigs you can choose to fill the entire enclosure with a floor covering, but more and more often only a covering is placed for guinea pigs in the form of a hemp mat. Guinea pigs are also easy to potty train. It is best to place the toilet near the hay rack.
At DRD Knaagdierwinkel® we strive for the highest quality in all our products, and our bedding is no exception. In our Cavia Webshop you will discover an extensive range of different types and brands of bedding, all carefully selected to meet the specific needs of your Guinea pigs. Whether you choose wood shavings, paper or another variant, you can rest assured that you will receive the best quality for an attractive price.
