Vitamins for Rodents

A healthy, balanced diet is important for every small pet. Still, your guinea pig, hamster, gerbil or mouse may sometimes need extra vitamins or minerals. This can be the case after illness, during growth, during pregnancy or in periods of stress. Pets with little variety in their diet are also at risk of deficiencies.

In this category you’ll find a carefully curated range of vitamin and mineral supplements tailored to small pets. Think of vitamin C supplements for guinea pigs, or general multivitamins to support immunity, metabolism and coat condition.

When do small pets need extra support?

You may consider vitamins or minerals for:

  • Recovery after illness or surgery
  • Stressful situations such as moving house or a new cage mate
  • Pregnancy and lactation
  • Growth phase in young animals
  • Lack of variety in the diet
  • Loss of appetite or declining condition

Guinea pigs are a special case: like humans, they cannot synthesise vitamin C. A deficiency can lead to lethargy, pain, dental issues and joint problems. Daily supplementation is essential, especially when little fresh veg is offered.
