A little different from the things I usually post, but I thought this might be helpful to some pet owners out there.

A few of these tips might seem pretty obvious, but I wanted to cover all the bases for those who might not have dealt with hot weather and small pets before.

I know some clever pet owners have come up with other tricks to cool their animals down, so it’s worth looking into extra solutions too. This is just supposed to be some starter’s tips.

A lot of people don’t realize how easy it is for guinea pigs to overheat, and assume that because of South America it’s good for them to be kept warm. They’re so short and stocky though that this guide is really important for any guinea pig owners.
