Floor time and your guinea pig

broken image

You have a guinea pig in your life now and you want to make sure you are able to offer her lots of time both in and outside of her enclosure. This makes you wonder – why is floor time so important to your pet?

Your guinea pig needs to move about in order to stay healthy. This means taking the time to help her have opportunities to get moving and to enjoy doing so. Floor time is instrumental in making this happen, as it gives your pet a way to get out of her enclosure and into an open space. This is typically on the floor, as your pet won’t be able to fall off of this area and this eliminates a potential hazard. Offering her floor time also gives you a chance to interact with her, which can give her an opportunity to socialize. For additional information, please contact your local vet Columbia, MD.
