you need to feed them fresh pellets and if the only thing that is fresh is the guinea pig food then its ok cause i fee my gerbil hamster food and shes fine yeah i got two guinea pigs last week, i have a shelter type thing in my cage. Mine never come out either so what i do is i take mine out during the day and replace it at night, it also get them to sleep at night, Hope this helped nope. well, it just means that he doesn't really know you. try feeding him fruits and vegies by hand, and once he's comfortable with that, try taking him out for a few minutes a day. soon he'll be used to you and will squeak wenever you come into th room. hopw tis helped! :D I have a guinea pig too. Always have a box in the cage they need it. It makes them feel secure like they would do in their natural habitat. Mine used to do the same till she got used to me. Now she is lovable and sweet. Make sure they get lots of fruits and veggies. That would really help. Always pay attention to them because they will get depressed and might even die. They love having loving time and look forward to it everyday. Hope your piggie gets used to you! Have fun! :)

My guinea pig is going to get put to sleep what do you do?

Well if your guinea pig is going to get put to sleep its probably for a good reason. Most vets do not put healthy guinea pigs to sleep, so your pet probably has a health problem that they can't do anything about and don't want the animal to suffer. If this isn't the reason than it would be inhumane to put the animal to sleep and you should object to it. Make apparent your strong disapproval of this situation, and how heartless and cruel it is, play on their guilt.
