Free resource packs for Guinea Pig Awareness Week (GPAW) 2025 are now available to download, giving vets, retailers, and rescues practical new tools to engage clients and customers while supporting higher standards of guinea pig care.
Running from October 20-24, mGPAW returns for its fifth year with the theme Comfort, Care, Companionship, underlining the importance of stress management in promoting guinea pig health and wellbeing.
They include:
- Easy-to-use guides covering stress, care, and companionship, linked to the five welfare needs;
- Myth-busting facts to support client education;
- Activity sheets and digital content to drive family engagement; and
- Social media assets ready to post across business and practice channels.
Dr Suzanne Moyes, deputy managing director and in-house bet at Burgess Pet Care, said: “This Guinea Pig Awareness Week, we’re equipping professionals with practical resources to engage clients and customers while dispelling common myths and showcasing what good husbandry looks like.
“The updated packs focus on the five key pillars of welfare, including diet, housing, companionship, handling and enrichment. The easy-to-use tools will support conversations around care in-store, in consultations, and within rescue environments.
“Even small adjustments in care can make a significant difference to guinea pigs’ health and wellbeing, and these resources will play a key role in driving these standards forward.”
