Zooply Cavia Food with vitamin C is a complete food for guinea pigs. This high-quality pellet is specially formulated for the daily nutritional needs of guinea pigs and contains added vitamin C. That's important, because guinea pigs cannot produce this vitamin themselves. With this complete food you choose a balanced menu that suits your guinea pig's needs.
What makes this cavia food extra pleasant is its fibre-rich composition. Fibre supports digestion and contributes to a good daily diet. Fibre-rich pellets also help with the natural wear of the teeth. Because guinea pigs' teeth keep growing, that's an important part of their diet.
Zooply Cavia Food consists of homogeneously pressed pellets. This means your guinea pig can't eat selectively and gets the same nutrients in every bite. That makes this food a practical choice for owners who want certainty about a complete and balanced meal. The food is also easily digestible and suitable as a daily staple diet.
The addition of vitamin C makes this food extra suitable for guinea pigs. Vitamin C should be present in a guinea pig's menu every day. Zooply Cavia Food helps provide this, as part of a varied and carefully composed diet. Combined with unlimited hay and fresh drinking water, this food forms a strong base for every day.
Give about 25 to 30 grams per kilogram of body weight daily. Also always make sure there's unlimited fresh hay and enough fresh drinking water. Hay is essential for guinea pigs and supports digestion and the natural wear of the teeth. For extra variety, you can supplement the menu with a suitable additional feed. Zooply Ondersteuningsmuesli can also be fed daily as a supplementary food.
Zooply Cavia Food with vitamin C comes in a handy 3 kg pack. Store the food dry and cool to preserve smell, taste and quality.
Yes, always. This food is an addition or main food alongside hay, never a replacement for it. Rabbits and guinea pigs need unlimited fresh hay for healthy digestion and to naturally wear down their teeth. Offer hay throughout the day, together with this food and enough fresh drinking water.
Always build up the switch gradually, over about 1 to 2 weeks. First mix the new food in small amounts through the old food and increase that share a little each day, until you're fully on cavia food. This way the sensitive digestive system gets used to the change gently. Watch your pet's droppings during the first few days.
Yes, a small amount of treats or herbs is a nice addition alongside cavia food, as long as it stays an addition and not a replacement for the main food. Unlimited hay and fresh drinking water always remain the basis.
First make sure there's unlimited fresh hay in a hay rack — that remains the basis. Give cavia food separately in its own food bowl, so it doesn't mix with the hay and you can see exactly how much your pet eats. This keeps things organised and keeps the food clean and fresh.
Either works, as long as you're consistent with a fixed time — that gives your pet a sense of calm and predictability. Many owners feed in the evening, because most rodents and rabbits are naturally most active at dusk and at night, and eat the most then.
A varied menu of hay, pellets and the occasional herb or treat provides a wider range of nutrients and keeps mealtime interesting for your pet. A one-sided diet can lead to deficiencies over time, while variety supports an active, healthy digestion and reduces the chance of selective eating.
Yes. Unlike rabbits, guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C and therefore depend on their diet for it. Cavia food is tailored to this and contains added vitamin C, so your guinea pig gets enough through its daily food.
Zooply stands for quality. We specialise in herbs and treats — precisely the areas where things most often go wrong for many pets. That's why our range is deliberately small per product group: we only offer the best option, nothing less. And we use it ourselves, every day, with our own animals.
