Why should cedar shavings never be used as a substrate?

Question 2

For what reasons should the water sipper tube be checked frequently?

Answer to Question 1

When they become wet, cedar shavings release toxic fumes that cause respiratory disease and, potentially, death.

Answer to Question 2

Guinea pigs often drink with mouthfuls of food and push food into the sipper tube, where it swells and blocks the water flow.
