    Tip No.4 is definitely what I am thinking!
    I just brought two with me today and they are super scared and timid. They are either freezing, shivering, vibrating or just hiding in their comfort zone. I am really jealous of the pigs in this videos. I hope they can get comfortable as soon as possible.

    I got so lucky with my little piggy, hes the sweetest thing and even though hes a bit skiddish whenever i put him on my lap he gets so excited and right when i got him he was so trusting and energetic. I really got an outgoing little boy he always makes me laugh. Id love to get him a cagemate but i have so many animals my parents wont allow it so i try to take him out and play with him as much as possible. Its only been two weeks and he already follows me around im so proud of my baby, his name is flapjack ☺️

    Hello, guinea pigs rarely bite and once you have got used to holding them I'm sure you will have no problems. I have done a video on taming - the theory behind taming guinea pigs which you might find useful :) You shouldn't have to bath them until they are fully grown really either :)

      +Squeak Dreams I recently adopted new piggies, and they are currently in a pet store cage. The cage is quite large, as we got the largest rabbit cage there. I do have c and c grids, and want to start building their cage, but I have a cat, and there is doors to piggies room, but if she gets in and the c and c cage has no top she can get to them. Do you have any advice on ways I could make an easily removable cage top with c and c grids, or is it just something I'm gonna have to deal with. Which I'm perfectly ok with because I love my piggies, just wondering.

    • @katiegilson5831
      @katiegilson5831 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Kiera Lamont I was worried about that too. I can't quite remember the name of the company but you can get a Kitchen Maid (I think) shelf and just zip tie it to the back part of grids that you can connect. Easy access and too heavy for the cats to get through :) You can also email Cavy House and she can send you a better description of the top of the cage. Hope this helps!

    So I've never had a guinea pig but I've read every book in the library (twice?!) and watched every video on TH-cam millions of times. I've decided to rescue two guinea pig (in Sweden it's difficult to rescue guinea pigs but I'm rescuing from a private person). But I'm just curious, is old (maybe 3 years) guinea pigs like old dogs? Example harder to tame than young guinea pigs? Harder to teach tricks? Love your videos btw! /Nelly💕

    Our class guinea pig is living horribly :/ she's not abused, but her cage is hecka small, the kids don't give her enough hay (and YES, she HAS run out), they don't clip her toenails, they over-feed her and under-feed her, stuff her cage with newspaper instead of bedding (ran out, we're putting bedding in tomorrow), and when she is taken out, she doesn't go in a pen, and is just handed around and shaken like a toy D: then, when she IS in the pen (which is rare), she's surrounded by annoying kids who don't know the first thing about owning a guinea pig. She can't run around since they'll LITERALLY tral her in the corner, then grab her for no reason, and then complain when she bites. -_-

      +Kayla Sanders The guinea pigs themselves? I think maybe £15-£25 from a pet shop, and rescues might ask for a donation if you adopt.

      JPL I just have 1 and she's pretty good on her own. She was by herself at Petco but I believe she's ok with it. Anyways, id just give her more attention. I also play happy guinea pig noises bc I think it makes her feel less lonely if she is. Also when she's stressed I play guinea pig music ( just youtube it) it lowers her stress and she loves it

    This is a very helpful video! I'm new to guinea pigs. I grew up raising rabbits. I currently have 3 rabbits and 3 guinea pigs. I got my guinea pigs about 2 weeks ago. They are still a little shy when I go to see them. They all came from the same place and already lived together. They do get excited when they know food is coming. They live in a C&C cage with fleece. They seem to like it.😊💕

I've already seen them popcorning around so we must be doing something right!^_^

    Thank you so much for this information for new owners. My daughter just got 2 guinea pigs yesterday, and got these crunch stix from a pet store, and now I know that it would really be better to give them fresh veggies and fruit. I'm so glad I found this channel. You have such cute little guinea pigs. I hope I can find out how often to feed them the pellets. Idk if I should just always have pellets in the bowl, or only fill it once or twice a day, Thanks again. :)

    • @SqueakDreams

I'm happy we found her.. I can't beileve anyone would just drop a pet into the woods like that. . ugh people.. Atleast she is safe and happy now.
