How To Make Your Guinea Pig Love You: Ep.2 | Tips For Beginners | GuineaDad
Like 3 Dislike 0 Published on 11 Jun 2020
Hi, fellow guinea parents! GuineaDad here. I'm back with the second episode of the series where I talk about 6 signs you should look out for to know that your guinea pig loves you. If they don't show those signs yet, don't worry! I'll also share GuineaDad tested and approved bonding tips. It can be a bit difficult, especially for beginners, to win the heart of their piggies since cavies show their affection differently compared to other pets such as cats and dogs.
In this episode, I'll cover two signs that your guinea pig will show if they love you: they will approach your hand (and lick it!), and will freely crawl onto your lap. It's time to bring out the big guns: vegetables and treats. Learn how to make them voluntarily get closer to you with the help of food (because let's face it, guinea pigs LOVE food), and the soft fleece of GuineaDad liners. Do you have other tips for beginners? How about stories about your piggie and your GuineaDad liner? Let us know in the comments~
Stay tuned for episode three!
