REVIEW: Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food by Hagen

IMG_0443

Living World Green is a new line by Hagen that has recently launched in Canada. LWG products claim to bring your small pet closer to nature with their wholesome food, treats, habitats and toys while also being eco-friendly. Their foods are packaged in a re-sealable bag to maintain optimum freshness. They are made of recycled materials and have a natural and fresh look to them.

IMG_0450

The Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food boasts superior nutrition for your pet with no added sugar, gluten, corn or preservatives while also being 100% grain-free and made in Canada. Their pellets contain CelluPlus which is unique to the new Living World Green Line. Hagen says this is a unique cellulose formula that aids in digestion and contributes to your pets overall well-being.

IMG_0448

The Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food contains a high amount of vitamin C which is an essential component of a guinea pig’s diet. Guinea pigs are unable to produce this on their own and need it provided to them on a daily basis to avoid serious health conditions such as scurvy. Other vitamins found in this pelleted formula such as B12, A, E and omega 3 and 6 assist in proper muscle, bone, skin and coat development. In contrast this food is low in calcium having a percentage of 0.04. A low calcium content is vital when choosing a quality guinea pig food. This is because any additional calcium a guinea pig consumes passes through the bladder. Over time a large amount of calcium passing through their body can lead to life threatening health problems such as calcium sludge or bladder stones.

The LWG guinea pig food also contains a rich blend of freshly harvested timothy hays and grasses, features an abrasive texture which promotes healthy tooth development and provides a well-balanced, easily digestible diet for your guinea pig.

IMG_0451

I began gradually switching our two guinea pigs, Sir Phinneus Fluffytocks and Sir Sampson McSqueakerbox, on to the Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food in October. They took to this food quickly with no digestive upsets. While gradually changing their diet I also noticed our guinea pigs would pick the LWG pellets out of their dishes over the brand they were previously on. Within a few weeks of transitioning them over to the Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food, I noticed their fur became softer, fuller and shinier. Sir Phinneus Fluffytocks is an Abyssinian/Peruvian mix and on his new diet his hair has really taken off! If I am even a minute late with their evening pellets they wheek and squeak eagerly to get my attention and then proceed to devour them greedily.

Pros:

  • This food is easily digestible and the guinea pigs did not experience any stomach upsets while transitioning to this brand
  • 100% grain-free formula
  • The main ingredient of this food is timothy grass and it does not contain unhealthy fillers
  • Meets all nutritional requirements
  • Is enriched with vitamin c, an essential vitamin in maintaining a guinea pig’s health while also being low in calcium
  • The bag is eco-friendly and resealable with an airtight seal
  • Pure pelleted formula with no added sugar, gluten or preservatives
  • Coats have become thicker, shiner and softer
  • The guinea pigs really enjoy the flavour and texture of these pellets

Cons:

  • I don’t have any cons for this product.

Final Thoughts:

Overall I am extremely pleased with the noticeable effects I have seen since switching to the new Living World Green Adult Guinea Pig Food and our piggies seem thrilled with their new food as well! I find this formula is well worth the price it retails for considering the various health benefits it provides. Being free of grains and sugary morsels while also being largely composed of timothy grasses are something all guinea pig owners should be looking for when choosing the proper diet for their piggies. The low level of calcium in this food, being fortified with vitamin C and having a minimal ingredient list all add in making this a superior guinea pig formula.

Please remember when changing your pet’s diet to do so gradually.

This is Japan. Japan was rescued along with another rabbit from becoming snake food. Japan is an adorable little black bunny specked with golden fur who is extremely curious. Japan’s fellow rescue bunny has already found a home and we believe it’s Japan’s turn!

Japan is being fostered through the Rescue Angels Society who are a non-profit organization located in Toronto, Ontario. They are at the Downsview Merchant Flea Market on weekends and any families that are interested in a particular rabbit can arrange to have a meet and greet.

Japan’s adoption fee is $150 which includes his neuter, grooming, nail clipping, deworming and a promise that he has been socialized to the best of RAS extents.

REVIEW: Living World Green Salad – Parsley, Parsnip, Meadowgrass & Sweet Pepper

LivingWorldGreenParsleysalad

Living World Green is a new line by Hagen that has recently launched in Canada. LWG products claim to bring your small pet closer to nature with their wholesome food, treats, habitats and toys while also being eco-friendly. The Living World Green salads are packaged in a plastic reusable container with a cardboard sleeve around them. The sleeve provides the product information on it and has a natural and fresh look to it.

These salads are 100% natural and have no added sugar, colourants or preservatives. They provide variety to a small pet’s diet and are a healthy blend of fruits, vegetables, flowers as well as natural cellulose fibre. When looking at the ingredients list on this product it is comprised of dried parsley, dried parsnip, dried bell peppers, timothy grass, orchard grass, perennial ryegrass and common bistort. All of these are natural and healthy ingredients to give to your small pet. This product contains CelluPlus which is one of the main focuses of the new Living World Green Line. Hagen says it is a unique cellulose formula that aids in digestion and contributes to your pets overall well being.

IMG_8047

The Living World Green salads come in four different flavours. This review will be focusing on the Parsley, Parsnip, Meadowgrass and Sweet Pepper flavour, which I gave to our four rabbits and two guinea pigs to test out.

Ollie, Willow and the guinea pigs couldn’t get enough of this! They eagerly munched away at the handful I had given them and even licked up the crumbs!

IMG_8021

Honey and Rocky hopped over to sniff and nibble on it but overall didn’t seem too fussed about the flavour. With four different flavours I have no doubt that we will find one they will enjoy!

Overall, I thought that this was an excellent product. I love that the Living World Green salads don’t have any hidden or unhealthy ingredients in them. Everything in this salad is natural, healthy and safe for my pets while also providing a great way to spice up their diet.

IMG_8033

Try getting more creative with this product by sprinkling it over your small pet’s pellets or mixing it in to their hay, stuffing it in toys or making hay bags with it as well.

Pros:

  • Great for all small pets including rabbits, guinea pigs and hamsters.
  • 100% natural with no added sugar, colour or preservatives.
  • These salads are offered in four different flavours to appeal to any small pet’s pallet.
  • Can be used to encourage foraging behaviours and prevent boredom.
  • The mixture of hays and dried food keeps your small pets teeth healthy and trim.
  • The reusable container provides easy storage and keeps leftovers fresh.

Cons:

  • Retail pricing is a little high however this product is unlike any others offered on Canadian shelves. It is difficult to find all natural, healthy treats designed for small pets.
  • Depending on your pet’s taste preferences they may not like this particular flavour, however there are three other types to try.
