Yes. I know you can get ecoli and ringworm if you're not careful. Just think about. How many guinea pig die because their owner played with them while they were sick? If we can pass illnesses on the them, then they can pass them on the us.
No. Humans and Pigs don't share many illnesses.
Guinea Pigs like humans cant live forever and eventually will get to the age that something will go wrong, sometimes guinea pigs get illnesses or they are injured, its the cycle of life.
No. Guinea pigs can't catch illnesses from humans, or vice versa.
Just like humans, guinea pigs vary in size :)
No humans can not give lice to guinea pigs. Guinea pigs and small animals all have a different type of lice that can spread from pig to pig. Humans can't give it to pigs and pigs can't give it to humans, but they can give it to other small animals so be carfeful.
Guinea pigs do not PASS diseases. Although, you can give your pet a cold or even a stomach bug.
Just as much as humans.
Social and wild, they are in between..They love being with other guinea pigs, but are sometimes weary of humans.
not human ones! they are made for humans!
Guinea pigs, humans.
no they are not humans they can't drink or kiss on cheeks?
Hello, Guinea pigs are shy at first when they meet humans. Once you spend lots of time with Her, she will be loving towards you. Guinea pigs attach to their owners very easily. A guinea pig that feels safe with the owner may even sleep on their lap. My guinea pig licks my chin and cheeks. When i cry she licks my tears. Guinea pigs are as good of a pet as dogs or cats except that you don't have to take them for a walk. Annalee
