[Bonus chapter] Jin's Daily Life is a...

'Hey, Jin... I remember reading about the care of guinea pigs on the internet.' Xiao Ling watched with her eyes lit up like stars twinkling at night and like fireworks during the festival.

"Oh? Inyernet? What's that? Do you eat it? Does it taste good?"

'Internet! But, well, that doesn't matter. The point is, I remember the information said about nutritional care.' Xiao Ling prepared her imaginary glasses, along with her ruler, and non-existent hair tied in a knot.

'Guinea pigs should always have hay and water available. Once a day, we will give him a ration of fresh vegetables and fruit. It can also offer them a daily ration of quality feed. They appreciate a regular schedule in their meals. The ideal is to feed them twice a day on a fixed schedule.

Hay is the most important food and should always be available. It should make up at least 70% of the food that the guinea pig takes per day. It provides the required fiber, helps to maintain the digestive system in optimal conditions and favors the wear of teeth and molars. It should make up the major part of their diet.

Vegetables and fresh herbs have a great nutritional value. It should give them at least one serving of vegetables a day. It is best to make small salads, mixing at least 3 different types of raw vegetables. 

The most suitable are green leafy vegetables, although other vegetables or herbs can be added in smaller quantities.

>>> 

"Eh? Wait, why do I've only heard of herbs and vegetables? And my meat?" Jin had a bad feeling, and his body sweated.

"Shut up, don't stop the class, it's disrespectful!" 

Meanwhile, she's immersed in her lecture....

Fruits they are very fattening. It should give them in small quantities and at most 2 or 3 times a week. Always choose low-calorie fruits. The most suitable are apple, pear, kiwi, strawberries, watermelon and pineapple. Citrus fruits can also be given, but in small quantities.

>>>

"How can I eat fruit only two or three times a week? How can I advance, how can I use my magic? The fruit helps me to..." Jin felt his world falling into a thousand pieces, twitching his nose with his enormous eyes, giving pity looks to his Chibi Master. He didn't know what else to do.

He doesn't understand why she's in this plan, and the worst thing is that she hasn't mentioned the meat....

>>>> 

It is necessary for guinea pigs to wear down their teeth, in addition to hay, you can give them wood to gnaw on. It is essential that they are pieces of untreated wood. 

The best are branches of apple, pear, birch, beech, alder, poplar, willow, hazel and orange trees. Make sure the trees have not been treated with pesticides.

If you do not have access to these trees, can also purchase untreated pine wood.

>>>> 

"Eh? We're leaving meals with our teeth now? But if my teeth can bite and gnaw iron..." the eyes of Jin reddened, and the mist hides his grief.

>>>> 

They should never eat, nuts, legumes, garlic, onion, onion, leek, potato, avocado, iceberg lettuce, cauliflower, dog or cat food, cooked foods, meat, processed oatmeal, cheeses and dairy in general, canned fruit or fruit in syrup.

Chocolate, tomato leaves, tea leaves, bamboo leaves or stems.

Poinsettias, asparagus, belladonna, mushrooms, orchids, rhododendrons, ivy, ferns, cactus, carnation, geranium, castor beans, mistletoe, primroses, ficus, daffodils, juniper, oak, poppies, cannabis, aloe vera, bulbs, violets and yew.

You should always have clean water at your disposal that should be changed at least every two days. If the tap water is not of excellent quality, it should be bottled.

>>> 

"WHAT IS ALL THIS!!!?" Jin was about to break down with what she is telling him... He understands nothing, and he doesn't want to understand. 

His nose was twitching, his teeth trembling. 

His heart is in shock. He can't have his meat?

>>>> 

As for the accommodation... (Blah, blah, blah...)

Hygiene is very important... (Blah, blah, blah...)

Not forgetting accommodation, the Guinea Pig... (Blah, blah, blah...)

At this point, Jin was already crying. Her body felt like it could convulse at any moment...

>>> 

Since our guinea pigs are not animals that are entertained by a toy, it is very important that we dedicate a little recreation time daily.

We should take them out of their enclosure to run and exercise. If we have a safe place outdoors, we will not hesitate to take them out there, considering the temperature (excessive heat or cold). The ideal is to leave the enclosure open and let them go in and out when they feel like it for a few hours a day.

Guinea pigs are sociable animals and need to be with other guinea pigs. Putting females together is usually easier than putting males together, especially if they have to live together in an enclosure that is not too large. It is easier if you have a large enclosure. Another option is the cohabitation of a sterilized male and a female.

Housing guinea pigs together with other species such as rabbits, chinchillas, and more. It is not the best option, even though sometimes they may seem to get along well.

If you see the guinea pig seems to have gone crazy, starts running around and jumping up and down, it is not an alarm or dangerous thing; it's called popcorning, and they do it when they are happy and at ease.

>>> 

'So, Jin...' when Xiao Ling continued with her 'Lesson', Jin was lying on the ground, his paws up with his tongue out. And when he heard her call out to him, he realized she was finishing what she was saying, and he jumped up and down.

'Oh, look at you, you're popcorning!' Xiao Ling's laughter resounded inside the room, which sounded like sweet bells announcing the appearance of someone important.

'By the way, there are other important facts.'

When she said that, it extinguished the excitement in Jin's body.

Body temperature: 38 ºC.

Optimal environmental temperature: 20-22 ºC

Longevity: 6-8 years.

Sexual maturity: Males 3 months and females 6-8 weeks.

They are sociable, they should always be in the company of others of their species.

Activity: Diurnal.

>>> 

But, Jin, because there are many things that you do not do, the internet mentions nothing about meat, neither red nor white....

And if males mature sexually at three months... How many months old are you?

Wait, the longevity of 8 years maximum? What is that? That's impossible, how dare you lie to me!!!!'

Xiao Ling felt indignant because the information differs completely from what Jin has done or eaten.

'Jin...'

"Yes, Chibi Master?"

'Only vegetables and hay for three months!'

"'WHAT!!!? Chibi Master, don't do this to me... My meat!!!"
