Every guinea pig is different. Some live to be 15 others don't even live to 1 year old. It's all about how they got cared for. If you clean it's cage every other day, groom it, give it a bath every so often, and give attention, it will probably live for a long time. It all depends on how it was cared for. And every guinea pig is different. How well a guinea pig is cared for plays a major role in its overall longevity however that is not the only factor. Many guinea pigs become victims to genetic diseases which are not your fault as long as you took it to a vet and it received the best treatment possible. Always keep a hawk eye on your guinea pig's health making sure to check for any sores, abcesses, weight loss, change in behavior, or stool/urine changes daily or as frequently as possible.
A guinea pig's lifespan is typically 4-7 years.
Guinea pigs live 3-8 years, but an average life span for healthy guinea pigs is about 5-6 years. A lucky guinea pig can sometimes live up to 10 years! So, a 5 year old guinea pig is getting up there in years, but if properly cared for, can live for a long awhile yet.
4 years old
I think so because there are 25 guines pig years in one human year,so 4 human years is 100 guinea pig years 4 is not that old it is common for a guinea pig to live for 7-8 years so its at its mid life crisis!!
The oldest ever guinea pig was Nibbles who reached 16 years old
5 years and up
The guinea pig should see a veterinarian. The veterinarian can discover the cause of the guinea pig's hair loss, and he or she can see what should be done for the guinea pig.
You have to times the guinea pigs human years age by 16, like you times a dogs human years age by 7. For example if the guinea pig is 2 in human years then he will be 32 in guinea pig years.
