One of our guinea pigs (cavies) has a wet smelly bottom.

VET has definately ruled out Diabetes (Good!), but it IS bacteria.

She has been on a course already and it nearly cleared up but is as bad as ever.

Cranberry juice also suggested (Have you tried to find a brand free from additivies / sugar / sweetners or other fruits?)

We'll try Cranberry berries as the pure jiuce seem unobtainable (easirer to feed anyway).

The others are on same diet and they are fine.

Anyone any other ideas?
