It's great your excited to be first but maybe add something to your comment other then first, like, great video Scott! 😛
LOL I will try to do better next time.
@@Kitty-Marks I am sure she was joking, bet people do that to her videos all the time 😊
Banana Split yes it was a joke. Scotty and I often talk and laugh about 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc on videos.

Guniea pigs: hates long nails
Also guniea pigs: *acting like they are going to die when you try to cut their nails*😂😂
Omg same XD
omg they do!
yess that is how my r

I had a guinea pig from a baby so I figured oh yay I can normalize this and have one guinea pig that doesn't freak out. Nope. Someone must've snitched because he started shrieking before I even started. Ugh.
My lil piggy died yesterday. He was such a sweet boy. I loved him with all my heart. The four years he was ours were happy ones. If you're reading this and have a lil piggy of your own. Give them an extra treat. Give them a kiss. A hug. A pet. Tell them you love them. Cherish them. Because one day you'll wake up and find them gone.
Yeah. My baby's boy left me about a year ago, he died in my arms. He was really sick and on a lot of meds and I just felt that tonight was the night he was gonna leave. I miss him so much he was my little cuddle buddy.
Oof rip lil Budd...🥺😨😱😗😭
Sad😢😭😥😪
@@angelinalee1404 not funny.
@@Kennas.wife0725 it wasn't suppose to be dumbass I was trying to say I'm sorry for his/her lost of her/his guinea pig
*cleans cage*
My guinea pigs: *time to poop!*
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😀
I just got a baby guinea pig yes he makes a lot of poops
Kittensquad :3 you have more than one guinea pig though right? not just that one?
@@kittensquad3766 FRRR
@@justcupcakeaka we got one a couple weeks ago and i want to get another one but the cage we have isn’t huge it’s probably a 2 by 4 but i have a playpen too should i get a 2nd guinea pig do you think that’s size cage is okay for 2?
My guinea pig doesn’t care about loud noises. She sleeps through everything unless she hears a bag of carrots rustling😂
Awww i never thought about that. My guinea pigs sleep through tv noise like me. But if they heard me, theyd be up like no time. Like the way they do to me when theyre bugging each other. Odd how that works.
Mine literally makes loud noises
@@chelseabowbowhudson7085 omg same😭
YES TERUEEEEEE
Finally someone like mines too 😂
My guinea pig really gets upset when he’s denied more treats, mostly carrots. He will beg me for more and when I tell him no, he swings his head and kind of stomps off. He never fails to make me laugh.
@Fluffy Fluff I taught my first girl a couple tricks. "Spin" is her best trick, I noticed she started doing it on her own without me asking, what's really cool is that my younger girl is doing a "spin". She learned it from watching the older one.
Fluffy Fluff I’ve never taught mine any tricks. Never thought to actually lol
@Fluffy Fluff hold the treat lower and then move it slowly in circle going behind her, she should follow it, of course, say "spin" or "circle" and she'll get it.
A carrot lover? Awe.... Mine, love lettuce and bell pepper. Actually, they love alot of foods. I had to egg plants and i was being lazy on checking to see if it was safe for my guinea's. They started to need refrigeration but i decided to ask my phone instead of putting it away. Turns out, they love it and it is good for them.
Katelyn Baer my boy loves his lettuce and peppers but he gets that daily so no issue. His carrots he gets only a few times a week so he always wants more! 😂
I’m convinced my piggies hate clean cages, the second I clean it the foot is tipped over, hay is pulled out and the whole cage is a mess lol
Sameeee
mine does too ahah
Ha mine too
They like it clean AND messy
Same😂😂😂
"guinea pigs hate long nails"
me: **looks at my nails**
also me: **realizes he's talking about the guinea pig's nails** "OHHHH"
Same I have really long pointy acrylics and I was like “I don’t think they care that much 😅”
yup same
im on laptop
I thought the same & I’m a nail tech😂
HOW THAY DO IT DIRTY
"Guinea pigs are very clean animals"
*my guinea pigs making a complete mess*
Yeah mine literally poop *everywhere*
I put water and they always spill it and the poop get squash and look like mud or dirt
Mine literally drag the hay to every part of the cage somehow 😂 I don’t know how they do it
Mine just shits everywhere
They like to rearrange everything... so thats normal
When I clean out my pigs cage they start popcorning like crazy. It's like they're saying 'thanks' so cute. They also love new items and rearranging of things.
Mia Honey yes mine too😁
Mine does the same thing or they start squealing when they see me bringing them bell peppers in the room
Richard Griffith
Hahahaha mine does everything!! When cleaning and when bringing their food!! Hahahahaha that’s like heck cute!! I’m like melting just for her!!
Edit- and when speaking cute to her makes even she makes the quirk quirk sound!!!
Yes mine too
@@richardgriffith4718 well they start to sound like sirens when I touch any bag
I put out a bed for my piggies and they climb into it. Then I can pick it up. They prefer this to just picking them up with my hands.
That's a great idea
C Me thanks!
One of my pigs is okay with being picked up, but the other one I use this technique for.
That's how I do it also :)
Stacy Monk yay!
"Sir, Sir blink twice if your in trouble."
"Guinea Pigs are very clean animals." Can someone tell my boys that cause they don't seem to understand this
I just built a guinea castle, three levels of 8 square feet. I didn't know why the cages always have that corrugated plastic on the sides....shavings everywhere.
At first when he said “long nails” I thought he meant that they don’t like it when you have fake nails 😂
Hahaha
same!! I'm asking my parents for a guinea pig and I have fake nails and I was like "oop-"
Same
Lucky Ducky The Cavapoo Puppy same

My boys have gotten quite “comfortable” with my dog barking. They used to flinch and run for cover when she’d bark, but now they just go about business as usual. It’s interesting how they adapt to their surroundings. Impressive little animals! Other loud noises, however, are unacceptable! 😂 ♥️
My older boy used to get really scared when he moved into the same house as my dog with the barking. Then I started feeding them at the same time, and my dog barks like mad before food time. So he started getting excited by the dog barking and wheeking like crazy 'cause he knew food was coming. My younger boy grew up with the barking, so he just gets the mega-zoomies when he hears barking around dinnertime.
My baby uses a litter box and it makes the cage easier to clean
please tell me you love giunipigs
Same! I have really loud dogs but they bark so much that my guinea pigs didn't take that long to get used to them.
At first my piggie was really scared of me. Within the years he began to love my company so much that he even used to sleep on my chest. I really miss him :'c
Aw
@Kaleela Edwards well, it depends bc every piggie has it's own personality. Mine was pretty skittish and a crybaby too, so it took like a year and a half to him to trust fully on me
Someone guinea pig had babies and have me one... It's so scared of us its been like a month so far that I had it.. My 6 & 4 year old named him fluffy
Awwwwww
I was clipping my guinea pigs nails and I accidentally went a bit too far and it started bleeding and I felt so bad I cried and gave him a big hug 🥺😓
You can dip his foot in a little mound of corn starch to help the bleeding stop fast
@@carolinehansen7714 thank you!
It’s bound to happen though. The piggies won’t hate you for it I promise ❤️
You can get a barber's pencil (styptic pencil), it looks like a piece of chalk but is has a minor numbing agent, coagulating agent, and antiseptic properties. If you ever cut the quick, you wet it and dab it on the nail and it will stop the bleeding and the pain for your piggy.
Oh gosh that has happened to mine before once. It wasn't very pleasent. It's okay accidents happen
If I touch sebastine’s butt he’ll jump, run away, and then look at me like I insulted his mother 😂 and he’s a friendly little guy that loves the pets (especially chins rubs)
Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elder berries!
Scotty's Animals ermmm wth?? I
Chloe Alldis ueah, I do t know either. 😐
I mean.. if a guinea pig could insult you that's probably what it would be like.... 🤭
That's a quote from Monty Python.
I’m glad I’m not the only person who doesn’t give my little baby’s at LEAST 100 kisses when I hold them!!
Me too :-D
イリズム i do too i probably shouldn’t because they are always in poop and pee but i can’t help myself
I do the same :)
They are just adorable!!!
Who else is here because of recommended and is watching this even though they don’t own a guinea pig... 👀 🤚🏻
Brenda L not meh
I’m gonna get one soon but for now me
Not me tbh;-;
Not me I have two guinea pigs
Me
He looks like he’s at gun point
I know. His stare was a little unnerving
Ikr
Plottwist, he's a guinea pig himself in human form
but at the same time it's sort of calming and makes me want to irresponsibly adopt more guinea pigs
I swear i saw this comment on an EmKay r/rareinsults videi
Yay I’m not the only one who kisses my guinea pigs😂😂😂
Same
I used to kiss my guinea pigs head all the time.
Same lol
Same, i kissed my guinnea pig right now!🤣cuz i am holding him right now.
My guinea pigs love kisses- they give me kisses on my nose :D
Scotty: *grabs Nate*
Nate: “Hah fool, this was all part of my master plan!”
Lol underrated
🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆
10-15 minutes to clean the cage?! oh my god I take about an hour my cage is so large 😰
SAMEE
SAMEEE
Maybe it depends on the cage?⁉
Yup and I do one side and then sit in it like whew time for a break haha
Yea, I’m not the only one who gives his guinea pig a little kiss
Only one?
My girl eevee LOVES being picked up, she is fearless XD I've never seen her flinch when being touched, picked up, or held. She just adores being adored lol
raivac621 mine is iffy mine loves being picked up sometimes he even gets sad when he isnt being picked up he stand up on the side of his cage and stares at me
My one piggy loves getting rubbed down his nose and around his ears. He lays on his side and falls asleep cuddled into me. I can tell by his behavior he's relaxed and loving the petting.
THANK'S BECAUSE I JUST GOT A EARLIY CHRISTMAS PRESENT FROM MY MOM.
OMG SAME
IM GENUINELY HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS RN
SAME BUT I GOT IT FROM MY BFF
OMG I JUST HOT A GUINEA PIG TOO
im getting mine soon im nervous
Dude, you are my hero! I have a herd of five, and they bring joy to my heart. I've been prescribed them by my doctor for therapy and I couldn't be happier
I genuinely love when you said guinea pigs are people because only true guinea pig lovers would actually know this. It's not that they have unique personalities but they are all like little people. ❤️ ❤️
Little furry potato people. Or furless potato people too.
Yup
Eve Alution guinea pigs aren’t people silly, they’re guinea pigs 🙃
@@heavyjersey I have 3 guinea pigs and 1 human in a guinea pig body lol. She dislikes other guinea pigs and can't be housed with them. She is freakishly smart understanding more spoken words then most 2 year olds. She finds large pieces of wood chip from her bedding and will hold it in her mouth and use it to scrub/scrape the walls of her house to clean her house. There is a huge list of things I could write but you get the idea.
Eve Alution wow that’s so cool! She sounds like a very intelligent piggy
My guineapigs usually escape their cage and waddle around our house😂
My american one is harder to catch. I hafta bribe him w/ food. He must be like you got me bc i let you 😤. No more exploring for me 😔. My peruvian must be like awww shucks. Almost! My head: 😁... yeah ok, waddles.
My Guinea pigs came from Virginia it was pooping a lot Was chirping a Lot
Mine is in a bucket with the like medao not shocking wire on top so she doesn't escape
Whoa lol how many do you have
We have baby cages on every door for that reason 😂
our 13 year old dog just died, so we got these little piggy's recently, but we are still praying that our other dog doesn't die.
You are so calm and soothing. I imagine animals just ‘flock to you.’ I’m a new piggy 🐷 owner and am very excited to be watching your videos and learning.
My pigs give off a more friendly purr as you rub down their body but if you go near the bum too long they spaz out and do a huge popcorn and run away :D
Lol my larger female horse kicks me if I touch her bum. 🤭
He purrs even more when I rub is bum and he lifts his leg up
My guinea pig hates his butt being touched. Whenever he gets his butt touched, he starts scratching me and running from me. He also spins around in circles.
They're tickelish.
Mine hates it to
weirdly one of my guineas likes when i scratch his butt lol
Touching the butt normally means you want dominance and sometimes it causes a fight when a guinea pigs touch eachothers butt
Man I'd prefer being scratched than pissed on my guinea pigs squirts piss at you if you or anything really bumps into her butt idk why she prefers to do that
So nice to see an being sobaffectionate with a little innocent affectionate animal. May God bless you for sharing your kindness and care for these dear little pets
Am I the only one who breaks down laughing when I say *WHO'S A GOOD GIRL* when my 4 guinea pigs start popcorning and banging there heads on the cage door all the time 😂😂😂😂😂
hi scotty yesterday i surrendered to a rescue that came and got them my four female gunea pigs! IT WAS A HARD DECISION But soc sec cutting me kept me from caring and feeding them and if they needed vet care i wouldnt be able to afford it so after almost four yrs of haveing my piggies i let them go to have a life i couldnt provide for them along with thier cages and pellets and hay and a few others things i knew this resue needed! i held and kissed each of my piggies told them i loved them and to have a good life and let them go with many tears!
So sorry u had to do that but u love for them was stronger then having a selfish desire to keep them at their demise.. best of luck to you.💗
Is best to do that vs let them go without care. U did the right thing. Some people let their pigs get sick and still won't give them up for help.
Susan Ayers I’m so sorry. That’s why people like me are here, to help folks out. Mocha’s family gave her to me and she has been to the vet a lot. You did the right thing. I wish you could have kept even one.
Aw man that's a rough choice. Hope they find good homes and hope your heart heals
Number 10 is funny with Nate demonstrating. "I better be getting paid in treats for this!"
My almost 5 year old identical twin boys love you Scotty. You have saved our lives and our piggy’s sanity. My kids won’t listen to me but they are listening to Scotty!! Thank you so much for these educational videos!! You have helped us a lot!!!
He look like mine he pass away 2020 recently. I still broken🤧😥😭
Sorry for your loss 😭
My piggies just run to my shoulders and burrow in my hair when I hold them.
Hahaha sameee
Lol our dot he same but just with my 9 yr old daughter
every guinea pig I have owned so far (4, 3 if you dont count the one who died 2 weeks after we got her, she was weirdly sick and died despite medication, so sad) all love running up to shoulders during lap time. I am not sure why they like shoulders, it might just be as simple as they like the warmth between the chair neck and shoulders.
my first and only guinea pig years ago did the same thing and shed just sit there for hours either that or shed try to bury under me or my arms lol
Chandler Gay same then they get stuck and i have to help them!
When a helicopter flys over the house my guinea just squeaks happily...
Piggie: "Helocopterrr I need an airdrop of treats STAT!"
Hmm g-force
@@wilsoniothegreat6162 omg- I just remembered it, I'm gonna watch it with my guinea pig now- she LOVES movies-
Being petted against the grain of their fur.
Actually, my piggy loves when i rub halfway down his nose and rub back and forth with the pad of my finger. He closes his eyes and relaxes, continues eating while i do it, etc.
And to clarify, I didn't just start doing that. I assumed they all didn't like it so i would scratch side to side, not up and down. But I did it a couple times to see if his reaction would be consistent and it was, he seems to like it.
Mark meant on their back and butt. They squeal in pain when you do that
My mom will give my lil girl a Mohawk every time she pets her, its cute but my OCD is like "no its going all the wrong way" haha
Once he said you need a little house
Me:gets box
Me:makes a house
My piggies live cop shows I turn them on in the morning while doing house work I find some watching while eating pellets out if there bowls. They love to sit on sofa to watching tv
We have a 2x5 for my two boys and clean it twice a day and wash the fleece every few days. The popcorns when they get put back in is my favorite thing.
Yeah I bet that's why Scotty's pigs popcorn to the sound of the vacuum. They know it's getting cleaned
Fresh cages really do make them so happy!
Freak Mel Mine do that too! So fun to watch.
My girls love cleaning day popcorning and exploring it is so cute ❤️
Nothing better than the zoomies in a fresh cage! Lol
Just watched a video from 3 years ago and then this one. Your confidence has grown so much and you seem so much more comfortable In front of the camera. Awesome to see!
Scotty your videos are amazing! Very informative, clear presentation, interesting topics, and it is heart warming to see your love for the animals. Keep up the important work 🌺✨🙏🏻
I have also found that when Mikey starts to back up against my arm, he’s getting ready to pee !
Same here. My pig will always back up against a wall when he's getting ready to pee
Tonya my guises pig starts to back up and then they start peeing
When I’m holding on to mine when he needs to pee he backs up on my shoulders and he wiggles his butt off of my shoulder 😂
The kids are all addicted to your videos now LOL Thanks for everything you do
Hey Kids!
my guinea can stand me flaping my laundry very loudly, but she starts wheeping and bubbling angrily when I do things like curse,hiss or even have a hickup :D
I like you! And I love how informative your content is!
I don't even own guinea pigs but I love animals so very much that I like to learn about them, and I can learn a lot from your videos, so thank you 😊
You are very knowledgeable and your caring nature shines through 💗
So one of my guinea pigs is really small and my dad loves him so you see this huge man sleeping on a couch with a tiny guinea on him nibbling on his chin
"Daddy's making a video again? How can I join him? Better make some noise!" Nate.
My boys sit with me in the sofa, we watch british tv. They have a fleece sack and a soft house to hide in, and often end up falling asleep there. Food and snacks provided!
My Kai hates anything that takes his front paws of the floor, cutting nails, cleaning his sack, checking he's not losing fur on his belly...
Twister hates going home after floor time, it takes hours to get him into the carrier and lots of bribes! One of the pellet bowls are down there with him, of course.
Whenever i re arrange things and Heidis in my Guinea pigs house they go absolutely nuts its so cute!
(My guinea pig is my profile picture)
"My guinea pig is my profile picture" *has picture of boy*
Me:Well that's a funny looking guinea pig you got there.
Nice piggy 👍
This is very helpful! Thank you I’m getting a guinea pig this month maybe and I’m super excited just searching things like what to do and what not to do!
Nate says 'I am a superstar!!'.
I need help. My guinea pig is about 5 years old and my other guinea pig just died a few days ago from something we’re still trying to figure out. He won’t eat or drink anything and he keeps wheezing. He also won’t move very often. I’m pretty sure he has a respiratory issue, but I can’t take him to the vet because my family is quarantine, is there anything I can do?
Edit: It’s too late now, R.I.P Bandit and Nugget ❤️
This is really sad :c I'm so sorry, poor piggies. I hope their running and poppcorning together 😔
Sorry for your loss
aw i’m so sorry for your loss
So sorry:(
awww...rip..
Plob he died from depression guineas cant be alone they’re social mammals and need companionship from their own species so he felt that the other had died and because he had no other buddy he got depressed and died it’s very common among them
So educational. Thank you for sharing. My teenage daughter just got one and we want to make sure we care for her properly.
This video was so helpful! Your channel is so awesome!
The guinea pig you’re holding for the second one looks exactly like my guinea pig sunflower
When ever my guinea pig is on the floor and I try to pick him up he just bites me and runs
You need to bond with him. Watch little adventures there is a great vid on bonding and great info!
One of mine screams bloody murder then he's like oh I've already forgotten 🤣
Thanks Scotty. It was nice to meet you Nate.
Thank you so much! This helped a lot🤗All of these tips helped a lot and I'll be more aware😁
Mine definitely jump when I fart.
Has this already been said 😆
Dunno what it is about that sound but it upsets the girls so much haha!
Hahaha Marty or Farty?
Heh. Scotty got jokes 😏
My dad finally let me get guinea pigs but I’m so nervous.. I’m really trying to deep search but I’m so scared of doing something wrong..
It is scary to be responsible for such lovely pets but it will be ok
I just found your channel and I subscribed because, I’ve recently got my guinea pig and I don’t know that much about them. I definitely want to learn more. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for the advice. I've been planning on rescuing a pair and this helped me prepare for their arrival.
He starring into my soul...
How to: Get across your house without having to feed your piggies.
If they’re sleeping, tiptoe across your house so that they don’t know that their source of delicious food is near.
If they’re awake, run like Naruto because if you run any slower, you gotta go get those carrots.
Ty for sharing alot of this info. I just got me my first Guinea Pig and I love her but want to make her super happy. Your videos help alot. 👍🥰
These videos are super insightful! Thank you!
I've had a couple of pigs who learned how to climb onto my wrist, so they could get snuggles/floor time, without being "picked up", 'cause they were the ones initiating getting lifted out of their cage.
I feel so bad... when I was 8, I got 2 guinea pigs for my birthday. Their cage was maybe 3 feet. They always had a dirty cage, cause I was so irresponsible. 🥺
Now's your chance to make up for it and to share the information to make other piggies lives better!
Scotty's Animals
Yes! I love guinea pigs so much, and I regret my actions towards the ones I had. In the future I will reflect on my actions and take this video into consideration. I’m looking forward to taking care of some once I’m older. 😁 Thank you for sharing.
You can't really blame yourself for that tbh. Little kids are irresponsible when parents buy them pets and don't make sure that they're taking proper care of them
G
Yeah, that’s exactly what happened. Eventually my mom gave them away to a non-kill shelter since I never took care of them. It sucks to think about the poor life style they’ve had for over half of their lives.
Well you are older now and know if you try piggies again to clean their cage.
I love all your videos! Brilliant
You have knowledge and love to animals!
You give great example to new generation!
Thank you for sharing!
Wish you all the best!
This was so helpful thanks for making this video😃
Nate reminds me of my Mingo. My boys live on fleece but also have a “ cavy kitchen” with paper bedding where they eat pellets,hay and drink..... they are so cute because when I vacuum their fleece they popcorn... maybe it’s because they know as part of their routine twice a day they get veggies.I kiss and smell my piggies also.Mingo will let me just pick him up however Patch always has to go into a hidey. When Mingo’s cuddle meter is pegged he will gently pinch me with his teeth when it’s time to go home. Just want to say I purchased a chalcedony pendant from you and I love it for 2 reasons, one is because it is for a very good cause and two Is because I know it holds your sweet, caring and positive energy. I love you and Saskia and everyone that loves and helps these sweet little angels. My heart is so full of love for them and it hurts to see them needing homes and or not being properly taken care of. So glad you are all about educating about how much dedication and work goes into caring for these little guys. I had a co worker gossip about me once saying “I can’t believe she wastes her money taking guinea pigs to the vet for a check up. Love you!,❤️💖💕💗💓💓💓💓💓💓
Piggie people are the best.. tell ur coworker to go scratch!
To all the piggie lovers....am I the only one to not to kiss and smell my babies but i also like to smell their bellies
I love how my girls smell🐾 little hay breaths🐾♥️😊
One of mine has a signal shes ready to go back after sitting with me... she tugs on my shirt. Works every time. I think theyre used to signalling because they ring bells to bring me to the pen.
Mine are so used to the daily fleece vacuuming they sometimes wont even move so I can do the spot where they are sitting. Go around me, dude, Im trying to digest here. I can be touching them with the vacuum wand and they still wont move. Spoiled little buggers.
My piggy runs to birds 🦅 and try to eat them and the birds get scared 😂😂
Thanks for the advice I am getting a guinea pig next week and I’m excited!
Another great vlog, thanks!
Thank you for all your content on how to care for guinea pigs, I just recently bought myself two gorgeous short haired black and white guinea pigs and your videos are a life saver I been watching them for a while now learning as much as I could before I bought them. They seem to be really happy. :) Though I could use advice.
I bought the timothy hay and pellets like you said. They eat all the hay and vegetables in the world but they arent really touching the pellets?
Im trying to give them all the love in the world and I wanna make sure they are cared for properly. Their previous owner had them in a really small cage with little room. :( I want to make sure I am doing things right
Great vid!! And your hair looks great that way 💕
It does suit him.
I just got a guinea pig and this video taught me a lot, I've been doing research to make sure i can take care of him properly. I just got him tonight. Thank you
That was extremely helpful! I learned a lot and my piggies will definitely be happier
8 and 9 really made me realize why my guinea pig is acting this way, it’s my first day with my guinea pig and he’s a boy. I noticed he purrs if I pet his bottom, and hates being picked up. He seems to enjoy being hidden in my neck though!
So informative
Great tips... I have just started fostering guinea pigs and your advice is wonderful. Thank you
We travel on the weekends with ours and they just chill they don't show any stress... I think it makes a big difference if you have a good relationship with them and make them comfortable
they told me line shavings with a scent is bad for them and can give them breathing problems
it can! they are very very toxic
the piney smell is from the aromatic hydrocarbons the emit. The stuff mineral spirits are refined from. Kiln drying burns off, evaporates away the chemicals.
Great video and explanations of everything 👍
Thank you Shawna and for your generous support of the Guinea Pig Sanctuary
Of course! 💕
This video helped me soo much!! Thank you for making this video because im getting 2 guinea pigs tmorrow! Tyy:)
Love the video and very educational
Nate looks so much like my Valentino 💗💗💗 haha Nate is a trekkie!
Awwwh the Natester. He's so cute. I want to kiss him.
Thank you so much for educating us !!!! 😊
i love this video! it gives me soooooo much of the info i need
I find it crazy how there’s people like this guy and then on the other spectrum you got guys feeding their pigs to snakes. Dude this guy genuinely really cares.
They have snakes because they think it's cool
Imo
Dude okay so when I worked a petstore the guinea pig owners were one thing but the snake owners were always super eccentric and weird looking.
My guinea pigs aren’t afraid of the vacuum either. It’s so weird to me! 😂 Where’s the best place to get a big bag of pine shavings!?
I live on the east coast tractor supply is located up and down the east coast they sell 5.5 cubic foot bag of pine shavings for 5.99 other farm supply stores probably carry it too
Pet shop, or farm supply
Scotty's Animals isn’t pine bad for them and shouldn’t you use aspen??? Every other source says aspen (including the dc guinea pig rescue)
I get Kiln dried shavings at Walmart, its huge for 7.00.
Wal Mart
I think what you do is great Scott. You really inspire me to go all out for Gods little creatures. I look forward to seeing your videos and learning or re learning vital information about Guinea pig care every time I watch. Thanks again for all you do for these wonderful guys and furry gals. 💛💐
