It is there way of communicating. Just like cats. There are lots of different reasons. sometimes if they squeal they are begging for food. And if you have more then one in a cage they will talk to each other often.

Making noise is a way for Guinea Pigs to express themselves. Depending on the noise they could be scared, joyful, nervous, or even aggressive. Knowing which noises mean which can give you a heads up as to what your guinea pig is feeling at the moment. In a way this is essentially their way of talking to you and other guinea pigs.
