The best bet is to get a house for them to snuggle in lined with a towel or some fleecy material. You can microwave the towelling and put it in the house so it is cozy to start with and if they cuddle together they will stay warm.

You can also use hot water bottles wrapped in a towel propped against the side of the cage and they will lean against that or put it under their house to keep it warm. Just make sure it isn't too hot.

Also draping a towel over their cage helps especially if they are by a heating vent (one that will not catch the towel on fire of course).

The fluff will work, but I don't think it will hold in the warmth as much as something more substantial like towels or fleece would. It is, well, fluffy and they can still burrow into the fabric and their body heat would radiate around them. Mine love it!

I hope this helps!

Just because it is called "hamster" fluff doesnt mean it is specifically and only for hamsters. All rodents like to burrow, including your guineas...

If it is that cold, your best bet is to get a small box (like say a kleenex box), cut a hole in it to make a small home, and put the fluff in it...that way your guineas can snuggle in for warmth.

I think that it would be okay to put a hamster fluff on them to keep them warm. As long as they stay warm through the night it really would not matter. Such as dogs you put clothes on them to keep them warm like humans. So it would be okay.
