As our care and knowledge around animal health improves, we have seen the lifespans of our petÂ’s increase. This brings a new range of age-related health conditions we need to be aware of as pet owners. Aging guinea pigs may begin to experience a multitude of age-related health conditions such as the slowing of their metabolism, arthritis and deterioration in cognitive function.

One of the best ways we can support our animals is through diet. Cavy Origins Senior has been specifically formulated with the needs of aging rabbits in mind. Veterinary formulated with balanced vitamins, minerals, amino acids and increased fibre to provide optimum support. Additionally functional ingredients have been selected to target specific health conditions.

Arthritis causes inflammation and stiffness of the joints; this often develops as animals age. Vegan glucosamine, is included as it provides the nutritional components for the maintenance of healthy joints, supporting joint function and repair.

Supporting gastrointestinal function as guinea pigs age is critical to their health as their digestive systems begin to slow. A nine-strain blend of postbiotics is used to help support digestive and immune function. Additionally, prebiotics are included to help good bacteria in the gut flourish.

As guinea pigs age cognitive and retinal function may begin to decline. DHA and EPA are omega-3 fatty acids used in many functions of the body, but predominately in the cell structures of the brain and retina. Supplementing the diet with DHA and EPA assists in maintaining cognitive and retinal function and the supporting the immune system.

  • Vegan Glucosamine – helps support joint health and assist in the reduction of arthritic symptoms.
  • DHA and EPA – helps support healthy brain and bone development.
  • Pre and Postbiotics – 9 different strains of postbiotics can help support the digestive system.
  • Stabilised Vitamin C and essential amino acids - support growth and wellbeing.
  • Fresh Australian Ingredients - high quality, hand selected, locally sourced ingredients are used in Origins pellets.

Fescue grass hay, lucerne hay, oat fibre, whole grains (wheat, soybean and oats), chicory root (inulin), DHA, EPA, vegan glucosamine, postbiotics (100million c/kg: Lactobacillus acidophilus, L.casei, L. salivarius, L.plantarum, L.rhamnosus, L.brevis, Bifidobacterium bifidum, B.lactis, S. thermophilus), vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12, C, D3, E, H & K), minerals (calcium, cobalt, copper, iodine, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium, sodium, sulphur & zinc).

Feeding Guide Senior Guinea Pigs generally require a lower calorie diet as they age and expend less energy. The below feeding guide is generally applicable to most senior animals, however veterinary advice should be sought on feeding quantities if your senior Guinea Pig experiences problems maintaining weight, rather than keeping it off. In these cases, unlimited access to both pellets and hay may be applicable.
