Well, it could mean lots of things it could be unhappy, angry, scared or sometimes when it wants food it make a sound, they do it sometimes just because they are happy. If you play with them they will be much happier!

If they make a sort of purring noise then they are very happy, like when a cat is purring. If they make a series of low quick squeaks they are speaking to you and quite relaxed. IF, however, they make a loud high pitched squeak then they are frightened, shocked or very uncomfortable and be careful - they might run. The loud high pitched squeak can also mean they are asking for food, whenever my guinea pigs hear the door open they start squeaking for food. Also it depends who's holding it if its somebody whit an unfamiliar scent it will get scared if its still makes those noises and your holding it try holding it more often it will get more calm and relaxed with you.

If they start to squeak you should try to take him out every day and get him use to you and other people holing him so tat dose not mean it sick or some thing is wrong.

Rumbling: when a male is trying to romance a female. Shrieking: sounds like a wheek, only more high pitched. it means they are afraid or in pain. Purring: means pleasure. Teeth Chattering: upset or angry. Mutter/Chut: meaning relaxed, happy, and content Whining: Just like it sounds, complaining Chirping: no one really knows why they do this or what it means.


What noise do guinea pigs make when they are happy?

Yes. Guinea pigs make all sorts of sounds. Sometimes when you feed them their favorite veggie they will make a sound that sounds alot like a cat purring. Some guinea pigs will also do this when they are being petted. This sound means they are happy. They also make a similar sound with they are displaying to a mate or before they fight. This is called rumblestruting, so make sure you don't get the two confused!

How does your guinea pig know that your the mom?

You will know if a guinea pig loves you when you are holding it and it coos or makes little clicking sounds when you enter the room the guinea pig is in and it moves to the side of the cage closes to you making squealing or chittering sounds You know your piggy loves you when she is happy to see you, gives little squeaks when she hears you, and gives you "Piggy Kisses" When you hold her! She might nibble a bit, but to her it's affectionate, in her mind she's grooming you, not biting.

Does it mean my guinea pig is happy when it squeaks while i'm petting it?

Well, it depends... Is it an alarming squeak, or a more calmer one. I suggest you go on the internet and type in 'guinea pig sounds' or something like that and listen to the sounds. Then see which one sounds like the one your guinea pig makes. Or you can mail me and describe the sound and what other reactions your guinea pig has. Does it flinch and run or does it climb onto you and gives you little piggy kisses? Anyways, good luck :).
