I'm looking for a good gpig forum - never come across one that I really liked yet.



I know one (guinealynx) that is very good on health matters, but otherwise can be very close-minded on matters (the "my way is the only way" syndrome) and isn't a very friendly place if you happen to have a different opinion, which makes me not want to post much as I disagree with some of their opinions. But all other forums I've found so far and too far the other way - too "fluffy" if you get what I mean!!! Not tough enough.



So if anyone knows any gpig forums let me know the links, I'd like to check them out!

well... I would say www.petwebsite.com (http://www.petwebsite.com) but... you know ;) they are all fluffy and incredibly 'my opinion is the right one etc..' but so far.. all piggy sites seem to be like it ;)

Yeah, I used to go on PWS a lot (I'm funkyvixen on there, actually I just posted a re-hello there today), it's not so bad there but some things really annoying there - I feel its over-modded.

I was going to say Guinea Lynx for serious discussion but you are right about certain attitudes...

Have you checked out http://www.cavymadness.com/ Cavy Madness?

Guinealynx is scary - great for medical matters but that's about it. So far I haven't found a Guinea Pig forum that I really like.

Someone on another forum recommended http://www.pimms-pages.co.uk - it seems alright actually. I've browsed a bit, they seem a nice bunch with some healthy scepticism but not too harsh :), might be quite a few youngsters there though (not a bad thing in itself as most of them seem sensible). I posted an intro and plan to lurk to get my piggy fixes!!! My pigs don't live with me at the moment and I miss them :(

www.hamsterific.com (http://www.hamsterific.com)



It says Hamster Forum, but we've ventured into other fields. :D Everyone's very knowledgeable and friendly. They have a sister site, which I think is www.cavypop.com (http://www.cavypop.com) :)



I've been a member of it for over 2 and a half years!
