Ever have guinea pig as a pet?  

Hi Blue, At this moment in time I have two guinea pigs, both male, Badger and Dave. They were both adopted as no one else wanted them bless and Dave had been attacked by another male so has a nasty scar on his black bless. They are such characters and I love them to bits. I have a bit of a zoo as have two cats, two guinea pigs, five rabbits and tanks of both tropical and cold water fish plus a pond. I have become known locally as the rescue centre but I don't mind they are all great with their own little characters bless. Huggles. Ellie :D

I have a cat named Oreo. I haven't had a guinea pig since I was a child. His name was squeak, and I don't really remember that much about him.

Yes..I have four guinea pigs..They are short-haired with a mixture of colors: white, black, yellow, and brown..I'm having them for almost 2 months..The three of them still don't like to be held much but the other one is fine with being held..They love to eat grass..I feed them crab grass..There are lots of these stuff in our yard..I also feed them pellets..I like to watch them run around their cage..

I find guinea pigs cute.I would like to own a pair someday.I just have to keep them away from my cats.else my cats will bother them day and night.I would like to keep a pair and name them Cheese and Cookie.

Never have one but used to play with my friends who has them. Feel more familiar playing with cats or dogs. Yes, taking care of guinea pigs don't cost much but you can hardly take them out for walks or run after them.

I never had a guinea pig. My aunt did though she had a few of them and I spent a lot of time at her house so whenever I was there I got a chance to play with them and take care of them. I thought they were pretty interesting. I just hated all the noise they made because I wasn't use to it especially when I was trying to sleep.

That's too bad that you can't have pets. Guinea pigs really would not cause any damage at all or bother the neighbors. I've had a few guinea pigs as pets over the years and you are right....they are great pets. And oh so cute and cuddly. I especially like the long-haired ones. The last one I had was when my girls were all very young and I was pregnant with my youngest daughter. I kept her cage near where I slept at night. You know that little sqeaking sound that they make? Well, this guinea pig squeaked a lot. When my daughter was born, she would make that same squeak sound. She sound just like the guinea pig and so much so that a lot of times we could not tell if it was her or the pig!

I had a guinea pig when I was a child. She was called Malle and I kept her in a cage in my room. I was 11 when I got her and I was really happy when my parents bought her for me. I still have some pictures of her. After that time there was a long period where I didn't have any guinea pigs, I had the same problem as you, and I wasn't allowed to keep pets in the apartments where I lived. Now I live in a house and we are allowed to keep pets. In January this year I bought two guinea pigs, and I was very happy to have guinea pigs again. Unfortuneately one of them died after a few months, but I still have one guinea pig.

I used to have a guinea pig when I was a child. His name was Max. He didn't get very old, and everyone was very sad, so we didn't get a new one. We got a dog and a cat instead :)

I love guinea pigs they are great. I have had four guinea pigs in my life. They are perfect pets! I always wanted a longhair one, but never got one.
