Guinea pigs going CRAZY when apart

[TaraJets]

My pigs Elvis and Priscilla are doing great with their relationship. They're mad in love like I hoped they would be. The only problem is when I hold one of them the other left in the cage goes crazy and starts nonstop calling the other guinea. I started to feel bad about cuddle time because of how much the pig not being cuddled hates it. Now they rarely get cuddles and don't like me as much.


Surely i'm not the only one who goes through this... What do you guys suggest doing? :{

Cuddle them both at the same time

Can you fit them both on your lap in a towel or on a blanket or something?

Yep, both at the same time - you should end up with evenly spread lovely wriggly neck warmers in the Winter rather than a lop-sided one!

Thank you guys! Elvis is a big boy but I think I can manage to have both with me at the same time. I'll try it tonight.

My boys were like that screamed if I left one in the cage but now i have them both out and get double cuddles.

One of my guinea pigs, Flo, does that when I am holding Apples, but Apples doesn't want to be held at the same time as Flo. Should that concern me since Flo likes Apples but Apples doesn't like Flo?
