If it's teeth clicking you hear, he is very mad and ready to bite you. They usually only make this sound as a warning that they are feeling threatened. Remove the threat, and pet him until he is calm.

Well, they make noises because that's their way of comunicating with you and other guinea pigs. You need to make noise to comunicate too don't you? well that's why. if your guinea pig is annoyed with you all of the time, maybe its because you don't listen to it.

Guinea pigs sqeek very loudly (which is known as weeking) when they are hungry or want to be played with. But mainly when they are hungry. They make soft sqeeking noises when they are happy or communicating with other guinea pigs. They make purr sounds when they are extremely happy such as when they are petted just right, cage freshly cleaned or having fun with other piggies. Hope this helps! If your guinea pig is continuously squeaking very loudly and wont stop you might wanna make sure he is not in pain.

Guinea Pigs will often chase each other to show an amount of affection... they will also go into heat and attempt to flirt with each other around 3-6 months of age...
