From the research I have done it has been proven that a guinea pig can live to the grand old age of over 13 years- about the lifespan of the typical dog. However the lifespan of the average guinea pig is only around 5-9 years, more commonly only about 5-7 years. Something to consider is that every pig is different and its impossible to determine exactly how long a pig will live. With good care and plenty of love a guinea pig should be expected to live to at least 5 years of age.
