Guinea pigs!!!!?

Question

I have 2 guinea pigs of my own, and I am watching 2 more for a week. I want to make sure each one has enough attention. I have never taken care of so many and I don't know how to give all of them so much attention. How can I?

Answer 1

What I've always done is give each of mine a few minutes of petting (in or out of the cage) during the day before feeding them, and I hold them (2 at a time) at night while I watch tv. Mine really enjoy laying around my neck and on my chest and being stroked. I don't know your usual schedule, but you could hold them in shifts, one after the other, or hold 2 of them at once for a while and then get the other 2. Do each of the pairs live together? Because if they do, you won't need to worry AS much about giving them attention since they have each other.

Answer 2

guinea pigs like being more with other guinea pigs than humans. they really dont need much attention. just make sure they get the things they need.

they love eating more than sleeping so be prepared for that.
