Is it true or false that guinea pigs got their name in Victorian times they could be bought for one guinea pig?
False. The name "guinea pig" actually has nothing to do with the animal's cost. The term "guinea" was used to refer to any exotic or foreign object in the 16th century, and "pig" was a common term for any small animal. Guinea pigs are native to South America and were first brought to Europe by Spanish explorers, where they were eventually bred as pets.

Are guinea pigs cute and furry?
Guinea Pigs are a lot more favorable. Hamsters are true escape artists. They can easily escape any cage with wire walls or no ceiling. Guinea Pigs, on the other hand, just need more space, and almost never even attempt to escape. Guinea Pig cages can have no ceiling and wire walls, resulting in a much cheaper cage. Guinea Pigs also have a wider selection of breeds. So, even though they are both similar and most likely equally cute, I prefer Guinea Pigs. I hope this answers your question.
Why are guniea pigs better than hamsters?
I wouldn't say that either is better then the other but guinea pigs are more calm. also hamsters are most likely to bite some people say but they only bite if they are scared so if you don't scare them they won't bite simple. but also hamsters are actually lower in price and don't need that much room which is a plus on their side but they are also nocturnal and guinea pigs are awake during the the day and sleep at night. Another thing is that hamsters are more active then guinea pigs so they tend to run around a lot more but this is not true for all hamsters . guinea pigs on the other hand are mostly not that active but again this is not true for all guinea pigs . but something that is for fact guinea pigs must have another to lie with they can not live alone but with hamsters on the other hand they can live alone but then again that is not really good because if you try to put to hamsters in the same cage your looking for a fight. also if guinea pigs escape they are easier to catch.
