Hi
So this is what I wanted to talk about for such a long time because it had been going on for so long.
So people technically bully me for owning one guinea pig, which i think is so mean some people on this amino are like:
" you have a small cage, she must have a misareable life"
I know it is smaller but I cant do anything about it due to me not being an 'Adult' I cant buy what ever i want. My parents just dont let me and i dont have the room for a huge cage but I still try as much as i can to give her as much outdoor and grass time as I can. So her age is just for sleeping and eating!!
" you have just one guinea pig"
I might have again same reason as with the cage and as well my guinea pig is overally agresive and I am afraid that the other guinea pig could get hurt and I dont want to risk that.
" It must be so unhappy on its own"
She is very happy accually, she is the kind of guinea that wants to have all treats, all attention and everything she can and she gets that with other guinea she would be less happy.
I am not saying i will not get a another one some day but not right now!!!
" she must not be healthy"
She is very healthy, she is 3 turning soon 4 and i was not even once at the vet or she had no diffuculties or such a thing.
so please stop being mean to me and making me feel bad about my self, if you have any other questions please ask.
And as well you can take an advice from me if i try to help, i am not some which that is trying to hurt your piggie. I only give tips that I use my self.
Thank you for understanding :heart:
Bye from me and my piggie

I have 2 separate pigs because they don’t get along, while guinea pigs should absolutely have a friend if your able too, it’s not necessary, it’s just highly recommended, don’t feel bad if you aren’t allowed to get it a friend, some people are just really rude
As far as the cage goes I understand you don’t have much space and your parents are not really on board with a big cage, and you don’t have to have a huge C&c cage, but is it possible to get a little bigger of a cage if you can please get a bigger cage but just do your best and don’t listen to those mean people
These are some pretty good cages if your able to upgrade a little
Thank you, we had just moved and my father is saying when he will have time he will build a big cage for her and as he is saying if my mother allows it i can get her a friend into the big cage sadly the cage is not even started due to us moving into a new country
I don’t know why people are mean to you! I used to have a small cage, so I understand. I have a C&C cage now, but I don’t know why people have to be so mean about it.
Ya, i guess they want the guinea to be good but they dont know how I take care of her, how I let her run outside. They some times just see a guinea pig alone and will write any thing and dont even care about the person what is might mean to him/her.
I understand, I hav only one guinea pig and a smaller cage as well, but I play with her a lot every day unless we r on vacation! She is also getting older, hahaha! She’s sometimes very grumpy! :joy:
Exactly, my os grumpy when she is hungry
I want to remind the people actively commenting on this post to check out the blog that was written about a month ago. But also to keep in mind that there are guidelines and rules we don't cross. This is a very difficult topic. Guinea pigs need a partner without doubt, but there can always be complications. This person is doing what they can at the moment. If I see any more comments on this post I will disable them to stop fights from happening.

Thabk you
Hey I have a solo piggy too. They don't need a second one as long as you spend alot of time with it and give them attention! So I agree with your statement!

We are not better than another guinea pig at all. Guinea pigs do not understand us in the slightest. Imagine only being around a very strange creature that you can’t understand, you know how scary and confusing that would be?

Sorry but this is nonsence,as well you are saying that your piggies are scared of you?
Reply to: Amalka the guinea pig
Sometimes yes they are scared of us. And what I’m saying is not nonsense at all, it’s simply the truth. Guinea pigs need a friend, and we do not replace another guinea pig
