Yes they can!

2-3 times a week

Guinea pigs can eat pumpkin in moderation as it provides essential nutrients like vitamin A and fiber. However, the high carbohydrate content in pumpkin can lead to digestive issues such as bloat and enterotoxemia, so it should be given sparingly. Additionally, the seeds of the pumpkin should be removed to prevent choking hazards for guinea pigs.
