I am a sweet and mellow lady. We need a spacious habitat equipped with hiding and napping spots, things to climb on, safe cardboard or wood to chew, and guinea pig toys. Our diet should consist of timothy hay available at all times, along with a small amount of timothy pellets, and fresh greens. We don't naturally make our own vitamin C, so we must get it daily from our diet. Snacks like red pepper, kale, mustard greens, dandelion greens, and other leafy greens will do the job nicely! In fact we love these snacks so much that we will call `wheet, wheeeeet` when we see you bringing us some! Our average lifespan is 5 to 7 years. Guinea pigs are a social animals, meaning the company of my own kind is critical to my health and well being. We're social animals and I would do best in a home where I could have another guinea pig buddy (female or neutered male) to play with by someone who is experienced with introducing us.For ideas on the best home for me, visit: https://www.humanesociety.org/resources/guinea-pig-housing
