Description
Support Your Guinea Pig Through Their Golden Years
As guinea pigs age, their nutritional needs change. Origins Cavy Senior is specially formulated by veterinarians to help older guinea pigs (generally 5+ years) maintain mobility, cognitive function, and digestive health. With fresh, farm-grown hay at its base and enhanced functional ingredients, Cavy Senior delivers targeted support for ageing bodies and minds.
Packed with vegan glucosamine for joint care, Omega-3s (DHA & EPA) for brain and eye function, pre- and postbiotics for immunity, and stabilised vitamin C to guard against deficiency, this pellet helps your guinea pig stay comfortable, sharp, and nourished in their later years.
Why You'll Love It:
-
Joint Health Support: Vegan glucosamine helps manage arthritis and keeps senior pets mobile.
-
Cognitive & Eye Function: DHA and EPA support brain sharpness and visual health.
-
Improved Digestion & Immunity: A 9-strain blend of pre- and postbiotics promotes gut balance and immune strength.
-
Gentle on Ageing Bodies: Moderate protein and increased fibre for easier digestion and a slower metabolism.
-
Fresh Hay-Based Formula: Farm-grown fescue and lucerne hay for palatability and high fibre content.
-
Stabilised Vitamin C: Ensures a consistent supply to prevent deficiency, which seniors are more prone to.
Feeding Guide:
Most senior guinea pigs thrive on a diet of 20% pellets, 75% lucerne hay, and 5% treats.
If your guinea pig is underweight or struggling to maintain weight, consult your vet—unlimited pellets and hay may be appropriate in those cases.
