5.0 out of 5 stars Best book for the guinea pig owner, June 23, 1999

pombo@wizard.net (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Guinea Pig: How to Care for Them, Feed Them, and Understand Them (Family Pet Series) (Hardcover)

This is the best single book for the guinea pig owner. If you own a guinea pig, you owe it to yourself and the pig to get this book!. Well written, with good advice and adorable photographs.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is AWESOME! It has everything!, July 22, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Guinea Pig: How to Care for Them, Feed Them, and Understand Them (Family Pet Series) (Hardcover)

I've read many different pet books, mainly on dogs and rats. But I've also read a few on guinea pigs because 'm planing to purchase a few as pets pretty soon. I can tell you easily that this is the best pet book I've ever seen! It thoroughly explains all matters of guinea pig care and even includes a table for feeding amounts! That's one of the best things! You should definitly get this book! It's AWESOME! Bye!
