  • Guinea Pigs are not nocturnal (Sleep at night, awake during the day)
  • They need large cages for a healthy life
  • They don't need a lot of exercise
  • Daily Vitamin C is not required
  • They need fresh air and sunlight as much as possible
  • They need a bath once every two months
  • You should clean up their cage every 2-3 days
  • They need chewing toys so their teeth do not get too large
  • They always need fruits and veggies in their systems
  • They have feeling and express them through different noises (Purring)
  • Most Guinea Pigs will soak up as much attention as possible

Are teddy bear guinea pigs harder to take care of compared to there guinea pigs?

I would say that the Teddy Bear guinea pig is a good and easy pet. They do need attention and care though. This pet would be good for a family with kids. Teddy Bear guinea pigs need Timothy Hay and other products that they need that a hamster or rat would not. Guinea pigs should have there own cage and should be watched on when ever your home. If you have done your research you probably have found that guinea pigs don't like to be left alone and need some friends to make them happy. Sometimes you might me finding yourself buying tons and tons of guinea pigs! With Teddy Bear guinea pigs, they would be happy with just one friend. If you are home a lot durning the day and durning the night, just one Teddy Bear guinea pig is fine. If you have work durining the day or if you work all night, you might want to consider getting one more guinea pig for your other one. If you do have one of these kinds of jobs where you might not be home for a while consider this: you need to know the different genders. Now you know a little bit more about the Teddy Bear guinea pig. This is basically about ALL different kinds of guinea pigs.

Why are guinea pigs called guinea pigs?

The etymology of guinea pig is unknown and confusing.Despite its name, guinea pigs are not from Guinea nor are in the pig family. They are native to the Andes Mountains in South America. They are believed to have been called pigs because their structure is similar to that of a pig's body. The guinea part of the name is even more confusing. There are three theories: one is that the guinea pigs were brought across the Atlantic Ocean to the island of Guinea then to Europe, another is that guinea was used because it is a word in the English language that means "far away land", and a third is that it was a variation of the word "Guiana", a region in South America (composed of Dutch Guiana [now Suriname], British Guiana [now Guyana], and French Guiana [still present]).No one really knows how they got the 'guinea' part but they are called pigs because they make sounds like pigs.
