Vetafarm Cavy Origins is a complete and nutritionally balanced pellet diet, specially formulated by veterinarians to support the long-term health and wellbeing of pet guinea pigs. Designed to be fed alongside a high-fibre diet of grass hay and fresh vegetables, Cavy Origins provides essential nutrients, stabilised vitamin C, and supports digestive and immune health in cavies of all ages.

Why Choose Vetafarm Cavy Origins?
Complete Daily Nutrition
When combined with 75% high-fibre hay, 20% pellets, and 5% treats/fresh foods, Cavy Origins forms a fully balanced diet for your guinea pig, ensuring optimal health and vitality.
Stabilised Vitamin C
Guinea pigs cannot produce their own vitamin C, making dietary intake essential. This formula includes stabilised vitamin C to support immune function, tissue repair, and overall health.
Natural Chicory Root for Digestive Health
Contains chicory root (inulin), a natural prebiotic that promotes beneficial gut flora, supports digestion, and enhances immune response.
Extrusion Cooked for Safety & Digestibility
Pellets are extrusion cooked to enhance nutrient absorption, improve palatability, and ensure maximum food safety by reducing harmful pathogens.
Supports Bone and Muscle Health
Balanced calcium, phosphorus, and essential amino acids (lysine and methionine) aid in strong bone formation and muscle development.
Feeding Guide
Cavy Origins should be fed as part of a complete diet that includes unlimited high-fibre hay and small amounts of fresh fruits and vegetables.
| Cavy Type | Daily Feeding Amount |
|---|---|
| Small Adult Guinea Pig | 1/8 cup of pellets |
| Large Adult Guinea Pig | 1/4 cup of pellets |
| Young, Pregnant or Nursing Cavy | Free access to pellets recommended |
These amounts are general guidelines. Adjust according to your guinea pig’s age, weight, health, and activity level. Always consult your veterinarian for personalised advice, particularly if your cavy has special dietary requirements.
Ensure fresh, clean water is available at all times.
