my piggy was acting happy right up until the morning her behavior changed and passed away suddenly less than 12 hours later. she was only 3 years old. my first pig. i loved her and she loved us so much. RIP my beautiful Pooper.
My brother describes our piggies as “blobs of contentment” 😊
My 8 year old is happier now since changing to fleece. He had sore feet and was in his house more. I took Pip to the vet. She treated the foot. He still had red feet until the fleece. I was afraid he would chew on the fleece but no chewing yet. He's walking a lot and is outside of his house. His feet look better. I'm ordering more fleece. He gives me kisses sometimes. Thanks for the informative video.
I know when my rescue piggys are happy when they start to play. Some times its a couple of months before they show they are feeling better. Clean cage, good food, clean water, vitamin C and quite often Criticare.
Looks at my boy churro: why have you never popcorned despite showing all the other signs of happiness?
Churro: 🤷♂️
My husband bought yogurt drops for our girls last week. I said no they can’t have that!! He said it says they can? I said no they can’t and told him there’s lots of stuff they sell that isn’t piggy safe. He is just getting into having the girls. I got them 3 &1/2 years ago, he’s allergic to them , but is now starting to like them.
Bruno is much happier now that he has his cage mate Matteo! I couldn't believe how unbelievably well and quick that bond went. It was all them though,
Girls nap and will sleep with their eyes closed, but also sometimes I can even go in the room and putter around and make noise and it won't bother them, they will continue to nap. I imagine that's a sign they feel very comfortable in their surroundings and trust me as their human.
Thats a good sign,yes. They feel safe with you.
For how long did you have them? My piggies are still very sensitive to most noises I make.
@@peacelovehope-jq1ry Some I've had for 2-3 years and my newest addition Matteo i've had for 1 month
@fitzguineavision I hope my piggies will get more comfortable with noises too. I've only had them for 6 weeks now. I always feel terrible when I scare them.
@@peacelovehope-jq1ry oh that's just a short amount of time, it can take quite a while befor piggies fully trust their human.
Keep working with them. Just remember not to loud of noises right beside them, they don't like that.
Napping, yes. There was this pet shop with up to nine piggies in the window. It was a rarity to see one of them streched out napping, probabaly the most dominant one. They had only one house in there and were fighting over it. So no napping in the house. Bad idea to buy them though. The next day there would be nine others suffering.
It is a moral dilemma that we face in the rescue world
So sad 😢
I have learned to declutter and make Harriet and Clementime's home simple, as long as they have plenty of hay, they are happy,lol! They love their tunnels too! Napping and resting as they snuggle next together is a favorite and a daily occurance.
Yep, lots of uncluttered space so that they can run and be Guinea Pigs. I love to see them popcorning, often after they have been given their favourite veggies or suitable treats. BB is a little ⭐ Thank you for the great video Scotty 👍🐹🐹🐹
Pedro would like to point out that you do need to give veggies every 5 minutes 😂
Awww. My Whisper agrees. She loves her veggies, herbs and fresh grass.
I love seeing my girls popcorn after fresh fleece! ❤
My piggies would nap but mostly in their houses, so I would have to kneel on the floor to enjoy it. ❤
I do have the worst habit of trying to clutter their space. But I am getting better with that. 😅❤❤❤
Guss the rebel.. My kinda piggie ❣️...
I asked some of mine are they happy and some are popcorning especially my characters.
I had a wondrous moment a few months ago when I was watching Kramer sleep. I noticed he was dreaming with small movements and REM - while I was standing right next to him and my cat was screaming at me to get my attention. I decided to walk away so I wouldn’t wake him.
Now I know he’s extremely happy 😃 ❤
To be honest, I used to give my piggies honey or yoghurt covered seed sticks. Also, they never used to last that long. There are more worthwhile ways to give your piggies treats. 🌈
My guinea pigs are always happy rosita lucy ricardo fred mertz ricky ricardo babalou are so sweet everyday and they are healthy good video
You are so awesome, Scotty, this was yet another great video. You did an excellent job of covering ways to make sure our piggies are happy. 😊
Have a great wheekend!❤
Anthropomorphizing is often not discussed. Good job Scotters!
It is something I talk about a lot. Especially when it comes to misdiagnosing illness people think they're guinea pigs are sad when really they have a respiratory infection
I will vouch for this, Scotty has mentioned this very subject in many videos! i can't even count on how many . but Lots!
Thanks!
Thank you Jan♥️♥️♥️♥️
Onyx is my spirit animal :D
When my gp starts grooming they are happy and they feel safe 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈
