About This Small&Furry
The Guinea Pig, also called a cavy, is one popular pet! They are relatively easy to care for, docile and are responsive to kind and gentle handling. When handled correctly, guinea pigs enjoy being picked up and carried. They are curious critters and enjoy exploring, especially when on familiar territory. …
What WeRescue Scout knows about Apricot
This shy guinea pig needs a calm, adult-only home with an experienced cavy owner who can provide patient, gentle handling and help them build confidence. They'd thrive best with a quiet environment, ideally with another female guinea pig for companionship, proper diet with vitamin C, and 6–8 years of committed care.
