A ten-herb blend Little Cheeks puts together around urinary and kidney health in rabbits and guinea pigs. It is a dried plant mix, not a treatment — blood in the urine, straining, or an animal that has stopped urinating is a same-day vet visit. Where a herbal blend does earn its place is alongside veterinary advice, and in encouraging the extra drinking that helps flush the bladder. Guinea pig owners should also know that dandelion leaf and nettle carry calcium, so check with your vet before using it on an animal with a calcium-based stone history.
Benefits Little Cheeks claims for it
- Urine flow — built on herbs traditionally offered to encourage natural urine flow
- Bladder sludge — positioned as support against sludge build-up
- Antioxidants and vitamins — cranberry and rosehip are the traditional sources here

Feeding Guide
Introduce a pinch at a time and watch how your pet handles it before offering more. Little Cheeks caps the daily amount at 10g per 2kg of body weight, and recommends the range for small animals over six months old. Scatter it through hay to encourage foraging, or offer it by hand. Keep fresh water and unlimited grass hay available at all times. Store the pouch sealed in a cool, dry place.
