There are a few things you can do, but guinea pigs are prey in the wild, so no mater how buddy-buddy you get with your guinea pig it will still run away when a hand goes to grab it, it's just a natural response. Try talking to the pig. Guinea pigs can get used to your voice, and will squeak with joy when they hear you. Also try hand feeding your pig. Get one of her/his favorite treats and feed it to your pig with it in your hand. Guinea pigs love food and would eat 24/7 if they didn't have to sleep, so food is a great way to your guinea's heart!

Hello my guinea pigs sister has just died so im getting a new one the same age 1yr and 10mths because she is so upset on her own how is she going to react to a new guinea pig?

Are you talking about A GUINEA PIGS SISTER or your SISTERS GUINEA PIG??? I'll just answer both then... First a guinea pig would take a while to get used to the new guinea pig, but I'll tell you they wouldn't HATE each other. Second, it depends on your sisters attitude, but mine would be pretty happy for a new guinea pig, but still A LITTLE heartbroken at the same time. Hope this helped!
