Answer
Hi Debbie,
It's really not that hard to care for your guinea pig.
Make sure she has fresh food/water daily. She goes to the vet regularly. Has a clean cage everyday ( make sure not to use pine or cedar wood chips because this may cause the guinea pig to get a respiratory infection which is very common, I rip up newspaper so that its shredded and it works great and it's not messy at all. And just make sure you set aside some time everyday with your guinea pig to care for his social needs. Here is a website that may help you:
