Seraphim Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Our guinea pig is SO funny. He loves to be in his "iggloo". He loves it so much that he will haul his food dish inside with him. When you put the dish in the cage you can see him scuttle his home in the direction of the bowl.Then a paw comes out and pulls it closer, then the second paw and gives a tug and pulls the dish inside his house He also likes to cuddle up beside my neck but sometimes will give a nip I do not know if that is cause he is male. Either way he is a riot to watch. Link to comment
LoveWaits Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Lol, so random! But this sounds unbelievably adorable! Link to comment
Seraphim Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 He is so cute....he runs around the cage squeeking when I walk by, and goes bannas when he hears the fridge open or hears a plastic bag. Link to comment
avman Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Try getting him one of those edible tiki huts. We got a big one for our 3 and they just loooved it (until they ate the roof off anyway). Link to comment

We got a big one for our 3 and they just loooved it (until they ate the roof off anyway). Yeah my son pointed those out a while back.....maybe an Easter gift. I had a female "pig" before and she did not nip. Do males nip? My male cat used to give love nips but not the females......... Link to comment
avman Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 I've had female piggies nip a bit too. Not as much as the males but they still do it. Just have to watch your fingers and shove a carrot at them if they get too nippy. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 I had to stop letting him near my neck because he drew blood the little wipper snapper. Link to comment
avman Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Yeah I had one bite almost all the way through my lip once. Taught me a valuable lesson! Link to comment
Seraphim Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 He has a thing for clothes and jewelry, he bites and wont let go. We have him in the big rabbit cage since our rabbit passed away, we have been thinking of adding a friend....male cause we do not want any babies. Link to comment
avman Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Guineas are really social. I'd definitely recommend a pal or two. I have 3 in a big rabbit cage just like you have and they are very happy together. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Maybe time to get another. I noticed he really liked the bunny and she liked him. He noticed after she passed away. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted April 12, 2009 Author Share Posted April 12, 2009 We got a new "friend" today another piggie.....he is orange and grey,a rather big fellow to be friends with our Patches.........he has been named Bedouf (for a Pokemon) Happy Easter! image removed Link to comment
