General care guide: Small pets

Small but not simple

Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and chinchillas each have different needs; adults should take responsibility.

Space & diet

Big enclosures and daily free roam for rabbits and guinea pigs. Unlimited hay keeps ever-growing teeth healthy; guinea pigs need daily vitamin C. Avoid pine and cedar bedding.
