I just got a guinea pig, my first one, a few weeks ago and I tried scratching/massaging him with my fingers on his back and he starts making funny purring noises and then he tries sniffing my hand while I;m doing it and sometimes he will flop over on his side. Does this mean he likes it or should I stop?
 
Lol obviously enjoying it ;)
I have two that love nothing more than a firm head scratch lol
 
Welcome to the forum!

Sound like he is loving it, most piggies have tickle spot by there shoulders on their back, that when scratched makes them flop down and jump :)) Have found it with 4 of our girls, Cookie loves it for a few minutes but will soon run off :)
