Question, I have multiple friends who have guinea pigs, but they’re all quite scared of humans. They’re still adorable, but it’s hard to get any interaction with them. Yours don’t seem that way, did you do anything special to make that happen, or are my friends just unlucky?
It’s usually a matter of how much they’re handled as babies. If not then it make take quite some time to get them to come around.
There’s also a fair bit of technique, like don’t come at them from above. They’re prey animals and they’re quite skittish about anything coming at them from above like how a hawk would.
They are so cute!
