My guinea pigs are making really loud squeeking sounds???

Question

HI!

ok so i know that guinea pigs make noise so please don't just tell me they all do that! for al my guinea pigs lives so far (one of them is 1 year old and the other is 11 months) they have made their normal excited sounds for when they are getting foo and there "OUCH!" sounds we they are fighting and their little exploring sounds when they are running around but recently they have been radomly making REALLY loud hgh pitched sqeeking sounds that last for about 1-3 seconds long usually about 1-5 in a row! they live in a cage in my bedroom upstairs and i can hear them in the basement! at first i thought they were having a little feud over leadership but it happens when they are separate too! and its been lasting for about 3 days! whats wrong??? i'm worried!

Answer 1

LOL. Its OK. This means they are extremely happy or anxious. I have a big bag of hay and when i barely ruffle it, they run outta their pigloos and start making that really high pitch squeeking noise. Now they get so used to it that when i clean out their cage and put the poops in the garbage bag, they think the ruffling of the poopy bag is their hay. So it goes right through the whole squeeking process again. They won't stop unless i leave the room. Watch this video and see if this is what they are doing.

Answer 5

Think of guines pigs as babies in a way. They need a ay to tell you when they want something, and the only way they can do it is by making noise. Feed them a little bit more or fill up their water bottle and if it keeps happening, seek professional help.
