Can guinea pigs eat grapes?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

My guinea pig Fluffy has her paws up on the side of her guinea pig cage<\/a> and in a cute but sensible guinea pig voice she asks<\/p>\n

\u201cCan I have some grapes<\/span>?\u201d<\/p>\n

I look into the fridge and there are some fresh red grapes, lots of them.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m hungry so I rinse one under the tap and eat it while researching whether guinea pigs can eat them<\/p>\n

\u201chold on a second fluffy\u201d I say to my cute <\/span><\/span>bundle of joy<\/span>,<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

she\u2019s patient and her nose twitches, I think she might even have forgotten she asked whether she can eat grapes, as she seems so content just sitting and being a Guinea Pig.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s me that\u2019s become curious and needs to know the answer, suddenly I want to share my love of the slightly sweet grapes with Fluffy.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s the thing with being human, once we grasp onto an idea it\u2019s hard to let go but Guinea pigs just love to be alive<\/p>\n

I think that\u2019s enough philosophical insight for answering a question about Guinea pigs eating grapes.<\/p>\n

\"grapes\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The first site I came across was the RSPCA guinea pig diet and nutrition leaflet<\/a><\/p>\n

Grapes are mentioned in the yellow<\/span> sections which suggests they can be eaten by Guinea pigs 2-3 times a week.<\/p>\n

I then found the Guinea pig hub<\/a><\/p>\n

They answered the question really well.<\/p>\n

It is possible for guinea pigs to eat them in moderation, the vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin B6 help your guinea pig to stay active and healthy<\/p>\n

But<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Eating lots of grapes can lead to your guinea pig getting tummy ache and even Kidney failure.<\/p>\n

So<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Be Sensible<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Treat grapes as a guinea pig treat and not a part of their daily regular diet<\/p>\n

Everything a guinea pig loves<\/span> to eat can already be found in the best guineas pig food<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed this article and I hope your Guinea pig lives a long and happy life<\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n
