Is it normal for my guinea pig to be so afraid of water?He has one year now and still he is trying to jump out of the tub(my english is bad dont know if the word is right) but that is very very high and hard for him to jump
and when i try to hold him and try to carry him to bathroom he does something like jumping everywhere doing squeaking noise and trying to bite me
hes only 1 year old i guess he isnt used to cleaning and water,he does such noises like hes crying when i clean him that i get scared and stop cleaning him and put him back to his cage
 
Piggies aren't generally keen on water. I don't generally bath my piggies unless they are absolutely filthy as they don't like it very much.

How often are you washing him? Are you sure he really needs it?
 
hi there

our two are 4 1/2 years old an still try to do a stunt jump from the bath so now we bath them in a big plastic laundry basket thinmg :)
 
well i wash him when he is really dirty and he still keeps biting my hand if i try to catch hm or hold him and carry him to the tub,i have to take towel and hold him in it so he doesnt accidently fall down,yes mine 2 does stunts to get out of the tub unfortunetly if he keeps doing that he might get hurt
