Guinea pigs have been around for thousands of years! Pet guinea pigs have been dated back to the 17th Centry even! Seems like ancient humans liked guinea pigs too!
Mop guinea pigs are not a separate breed but rather a descriptive term for long-haired guinea pigs with flowing coats. To get a mop guinea pig, look for guinea pigs with long, silky fur at reputable breeders or rescue shelters. Remember that grooming and maintenance for long-haired guinea pigs may require more attention.
You can put them together during mating season. That's all you can do.

The etymology of guinea pig is unknown and confusing.Despite its name, guinea pigs are not from Guinea nor are in the pig family. They are native to the Andes Mountains in South America. They are believed to have been called pigs because their structure is similar to that of a pig's body. The guinea part of the name is even more confusing. There are three theories: one is that the guinea pigs were brought across the Atlantic Ocean to the island of Guinea then to Europe, another is that guinea was used because it is a word in the English language that means "far away land", and a third is that it was a variation of the word "Guiana", a region in South America (composed of Dutch Guiana [now Suriname], British Guiana [now Guyana], and French Guiana [still present]).No one really knows how they got the 'guinea' part but they are called pigs because they make sounds like pigs.
