Well, most people like to keep their guinea pigs outside but u should only keep ur guinea pig outside for about 2 to 3 minutes. beware: dont leave a guinea pig unsupervised because if u spray ur yard with ANYTHING BESIDES WATER, it could eat the grass and get VERY sick. Guinea pigs also like the fresh air. Whatever you do, don't leave a guinea pig unsupervised outside or anywhere unless you know that it will be safe.
You should not keep your guinea pig outside in the winter! They're natural climate is not cold and they cannot handle the cold. Your pig probably has a respiratory infection and she needs to see a vet right away. Please, please keep your guinea pig inside, even if it is just in your warm basement. They cannot handle winter weather. put the f%$# guinea pig inside!
It is spelled "guinea pig". You got it right! :)
You should not keep the cage outside anyway. I suggest getting a new cage and keeping it inside. It may be cold for your guinea pig outside. If you didn't keep the cage outside earwigs would not have got to it.
You can't take Guinea Pig's for a walk with leads or anything like that as they are very bad for a Guinea Pig's spine. You are best to either let them go in a run outside or let them out in your house. You are best letting it run in your house, but keep it away from wires and spaces it can hide in. You shouldn't use a guinea pig harness or lead as they can damage their sensitive spines.
Guinea pigs can stay "outside" as long as they have a hutch of cage that is raised off the ground and may provide shelter for them if it starts to rain, ect. If you are choosing to have a pet guinea pig, It is best to keep them inside if you have the time to clean out their cage 2-3 times a week. If your looking for a low maintence pet, you could always keep them outside. This will affect its behaviour, and I reacently had a guinea pig that died of fright from a snake in our yard. Now I keep all my guinea pigs inside.
Your guinea pig will be totally fine
if your guinea pig is socked help it dry with a towle and take it inside if it is outside.
In winter, your guinea pig should be indoors. Ask someone to help you search for it.
If you have a guinea pig that you keep outside you should keep it in the shade...It should be just fine! although if you keep your guinea pig inside they prefer to be in temperatures from 60-80 degrees Fahrenheit i think they mean IN HEAT as in their periods..... if that's what they mean then KEEP THEM AWAY FROM THE OPPOSITE SEX! source(s) 2 guinea pigs at home named gizmo and alf!
i recomend that you don't
Your male guinea pig is trying to mate with your female guinea pig.
There average lifespan i s 5 to 7 years. The above does not address the question. A guinea pig can live inside its entire life, as long as its cage and surroundings are kept clean. If you live in a cold area, it is better to keep your guinea pig inside as they do not tolerate cold very well. A guinea pig is happier living outside in warm temperate regions of the world. Guinea-pigs are grazing animals, which is why they particularly enjoy grazing on the grass outside.
Really, the best thing for a guinea pig would be to get it a friend, but if you cannot do this for some reason, a mirror attached to the OUTSIDE of the cage will work too. It has to be placed on the outside, unless it has been tested safe for the pigs.

If that happens nothing will happen to any of the males.
Keep them with a male guinea pig. Be careful because sometime the male with harrass the female.
Just keep a bowl of store bought guinea pig food in your guinea pig's cage and if it gets hungry it can eat out of that. And also you can feed your guinea pig fruits and veggies every now and then. I do the same with my guinea pig, but she seems to have a problem with eating fruits and veggies. :(
