Guinea pigs are simple animals and I never was thinking that they could get bored. My son was begging me to buy one for him and I did. Thing that happens with all kids is that they get bored of the guinea pig and it was the same with my son so my wife and I were taking car of it. He had a simple cage and he would not even move like he was bored. I read about what they like on petsoid and I bought some toys for it. Now it looks much happier and my son started playing with it again. They really get bored and toys make their lives better.

Why didn’t anyone tell me about this some months ago?!

They are definetely bored and might get sick! Just find some toys and place in their cage!

My wife and I bought our children two guinea pigs, but we are still afraid to let them out of the cage. But as we noticed they are very bored there. What activities can they do to avoid being bored?
