Junior Guinea Pig
Is it normal for a young guinea pig to be really squirmy and not sit still for a moment during lap time?! Our two girls, Pip and Honey came to live with us 2 weeks ago. Pip is becoming really tame, letting us stroke her and will sit quietly on our knee during lap time, whereas her sister won't sit still for a moment! So am letting the kids handle Pip for short periods, but am too nervous about letting them handle Honey incase she launches herself off their lap and injures herself. She still seems a bit nervous and scarpers if we try to stroke her. Any suggestions? Will she calm down a bit when she's a bit older?!
