  • Well what do you want to know? Ive had 7 of them. Guinea pigs are also known as cavies, and the English smooth coat is more commonly known as the American smooth coat. They can live for around 7 years. They make great pets for children as they rarely bite and once tame are easy to handle. No guinea pig should live alone, they should have a friend to keep them company because they are very social creatures and no human companionship can replace that of another guinea. If they live outdoors, a friend is vital because they huddle together for warmth and can suffer from exposure if they get cold. Guinea pigs teeth continuously grow and it is important to feed a diet rich in fibre. Guineas cant produce their own vitamin c and so they should have a supplement or plenty of fresh, green vegetables. It is nice of you can let you guinea in a run outdoors to graze on teh grass too. I could keep going all day really, is there anything you want to know in particular? x
