Best Answer

Guinea pigs are shy in one way, but not shy in another. Guinea pigs love to be in the room of the house that is most social. But, when they're tired they don't like to be bothered. But, they do like to fall asleep on you! They love to held at times. And, they don't like to be around a lot of noise. They get stressed out very easily.

Guinea pigs are known to be very shy, so you have to prove to the guinea pig that you are gentle by simply approaching your guinea pig slowly and calmly and then eventually pet or pick him/her up. You can also find ways to tame your guinea pig, either with food or a treat. Try to do anything to make it feel safe. You can simply be dealing with a guinea pig that is nervous, or you are dealing with something that is very common and normal for your guinea pig.
