noises

Hello, one of my guinea pigs named Pou (1 year old) is currently making these deep oinking noises which are sometimes softer and then louder, I think the noise is coming from her throat. She stops making the noises when I carry her but continues in her cage. She is lightly wheezing from her nose...

Hi everyone, my last post here was about one of my boys Bobby who seems to be having some health issues we can’t quite pin. Just wondering if anyone knows for sure what type of noise this is? I’m assuming it’s pain but since I could be wrong just want to double check. I only ever heard it before...

I'm struggling to work out what all their different noises mean Could anyone help me? Not sure how to show the videos on here though

Is there a reference post or helpful website page listing the meanings of the various noises? I've recently switched a few things around and there's being more aural communication than before, so I want to be sure I'm interpreting things right. I've seen that there's a couple mentioned in the...

my pig marvin has just recovered from GI stasis and is now concerning me with a new issue. he has only done this twice, but after his recent health scare, I’m worried. he will make these little groaning noises, cough, and then feel fine afterward and goes back to normal seemingly. is he just...

Hello I am new to this forum and to the whole guinea pig life! I have two little guinea pigs, each less than a year old (although I don't know their exact age due to the fact I got them from the pet store... I know, I know, I am now a more educated individual, but I love them more than anything...

Can anyone share an accurate video of a guinea purring? I‘ve searched high and low but all the clips I’ve seen have been of owners mistaking purring for rumbling. My two are very vocal and I want to be able to distinguish between purring and general chatter/exploring chirps 😊

Hi guys, I have had my little guineas for 6 months now and the past 2 nights I have overheard them making a noise that I have not heard before. I have tried watching videos and searching the internet for an explanation but I cannot find it anywhere. If anyone could help me I would be very great...

Hi, this morning I noticed one of my guinea pigs is making a like of hoo noise. Does anyone know what this means? Thank you.

My guinea pig makes noises from time to time it’s hard to explain i do have a video to show if anyone is able to help me, but sometimes it sounds like he’s struggling for breath or when he’s eating like he’s in pain, it’s never constant just sometimes when he’s lying down or when he’s eating...

Hello everyone! I just got 2 guinea pigs, around 3 months of age. They were put together a week ago since they’re not related, but they are getting along great. However, these are my first piggies, and a few things worry me. First off, is it normal that they’re constantly jumping and skipping...

So earlier my guinea pig George aged 3 died suddenly. He was absolutely fine yesterday until this morning when he refused to eat. We booked him a vets appointment for later as my mum was at work all day. I came downstairs to hearing him making a wheezing noise as well as howling and hiding away...

I'm really scared! We recently separated Optimus and Witwicky and it's night and he's making a really worrying noise. It sounds like he's about to chirp but he can't and now he's stopped... they have had some recent health problems so I hope he's not in pain! Any ideas ;(

Hey everyone, Happy October! So recently I have recovered from a head cold, and I was told a long time ago that guinea pigs can get colds from us. Is that true? The reason I ask is because one of my pigs has started making a weird noise when she eats and she is sneezing twice a day...

Hello everybody, let me first say; I'm a new owner. I've never had Guinea pigs before in my life until this past December. As a Christmas present, my aunt took me to her usual pet store for her dogs and we bought a very young pig. My neighbor had a single pig she could no longer take care of and...

SOOOOOO. Few minutes ago, my mum and I heard this weird, weird noise. It was really quite loud, like a CHEE-CHEE-CHEE-CHEE-CHEE. And I thought, is it someone playing silly beggars, or a weird bird outside practising karaoke? So I got up, and when I went near the piggy room it sounded louder, but...

ive had two boars for roughly a month and today i was sitting cross legged on the floor while they were out of the cage. one of my boys came onto my lap (i havent enticed him with anything) and he let me stroke him for about 5 minutes which is quite long for him as all he wants to do is run laps...

my Guinea pig every now and then is making this weird noise which sounds like a sort of sneeze/cough and I don't know what it means if it's any help I just gave him a bath to clean his grease gland so I don't know if it could be something to do with that. Again it sounds like a coughing sneeze ...
