Description
Guinea pigs cannot make their own vitamin C, which puts the burden on you to supply it every day. Kaytee Super C Bites are built around that problem: each bite carries long-lasting vitamin C to help maintain immune system health, in a form your pet will actually eat. The base is fibre-rich timothy hay, so the treat supports healthy digestion rather than working against it the way a sugary treat does, and real cranberry and orange oil give the flavour that gets them eaten. Beyond guinea pigs, they suit adult rabbits, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats and mice.

Vitamin C is the specific nutritional issue with guinea pigs, and it degrades fast: an opened bag of fortified food loses potency over weeks, which is why a stabilised source is worth paying attention to. That said, treats supplement a diet rather than carry it. Keep a good fortified guinea pig food and fresh vegetables as the foundation, use these bites for the enrichment and the bond, and speak to your vet if you are concerned about your pet's vitamin C intake.
