Question
Hello.  I am living overseas and the only food I can get for my guinea pigs is rabbit food. Does this matter?  Should I supplement with specific things?
Thanks

Answer
Hi Sarah

The problem is that rabbit food doesnt sometimes contain added vitamins that piggies need and rabbits dont need as much.

If you gave the rabbit food you would have to make sure you gave a daily supply of vitamin rich foods such as fruit and vegetables.

Have you tried ordering food off the internet?
