New Born Pup
I recently rehomed 2 piggies, theyve been with us for 3 days. Merry has become quite confident quickly and is fairly easy to pick up and have lap time. Pippin however is very skittish and spends a lot of time hiding. The previous owners have said he has always been this way. Neither of them were handled much before. He will sit on a lap for a bit but hes very difficult to pick up as he races away etc and wil dart off very quickly so I worry about hurting him.
My question is, if Pippin doesnt become any less skittish should I not try to push laptime with him? Do some Guinea pigs never want petted? Is it ok to have 1 who has regular cuddles and 1 who doesnt?
