[rotating-posts]Hi, i got a small guinea pig day before yesterday, shes around 12 weeks ancient.
She is very very shy, she keeps shaking and wants to stay in her igloo when im around. shes a texel, so she has long curly fur but when i tried to stroke her, it feels like she has two fur knots on either side, which cant feel nice. but when i try to touch her she starts to chatter her teeth. so i don’t know how to cut her knots off without frightening her. or should i wait until shes used to me more?
she only seems to come out of her igloo to eat when i go to class or when im asleep. ive tried hand-feeding her a variety of fresh foods today and she only had a nibble of an apple and she just kept turning away from me. so i place the foods in her bowl and left her to it. then all of a sudden, i heard a noise which sounded a bit like a monkey’s “ooh ooh ah ah” its the first time ive ever heard it so im not sure what this signal is called. but when i went to go try out her she was still in her igloo with her nose poking out. this is my first guinea pig as you can tell!
PS shes not going to be a lonely piggy for much longer, as shes getting a cage mate in a few weeks, a boy piggy had been neutered at the shelter and they’re waiting until its safe before they allow me to take him.
Simple points for best answer!
MANY THANKS EVERYONE!! xx
