If you're looking to adopt a guinea pig, there are some fascinating facts about them. While they have the potential to be a wonderful pet, there are also some important facts you should know before you get one. First, they need a lot of space. They are naturally shy and need plenty of hiding places, but don't worry, guinea pigs aren't aggressive! The guinea pig originated in the Andes region of South America and may have been brought to Europe by Spanish explorers in the 1500s. In fact, the scientific name of this rodent is Cavia porcellus, although some people still refer to them as "guinea pigs" - a mistranslation of the genus name. While it is a relatively modern breed, there are still many myths about guinea pigs. Although these pigs aren't as social as other breeds of rodents, they can recognize the voices of their human companions. They also recognize footsteps and the voices of humans and are capable of distinguishing them from each other. Because of their linguistic abilities, veterinarians who specialize in this type of animal practice are often called exotic veterinarians. Guinea pigs are sensitive to your voice and actions and can even tell when they need to pee. Unlike many other pets, guinea pigs require constant access to grass and good quality hay. This is important for their teeth and digestive system. Unlike cats and rabbits, guinea pigs don't catch human viruses, but they can contract fungal infections and bacterial infections. They can also pee on humans. In addition, they should be allowed to have a few treats from fruits and vegetables. However, their high sugar content can lead to problems in the long run.
