Hey guys!

I was wondering if i can take my piggies with me when i mean places i refer to close friends house, book store, park, beach.

I have a medium and small size dog cage (photos attached) i would like to use these if i take them to the park or the beach. If i take them to the park of the beach, ill make sure to have all their goodies and there’s good weather. If i take theme to the book store or friends house ill take them in a carrier.

I was just wondering if this will be a terrible idea or not.

I just want them to hangout with me, I'm not planning on taking them to crowded or loud places. I just want to know if they can spend a few hours hangout with me at a quite park or beach (they will remind inside cage)


I have attached the cage i will use if I take them to the beach or park as well as the carrier if i want to go with them to a bookstore.

To be honest your guinea pigs would be far happier left at home with a handful of hay and a slice of cucumber.
Guinea pigs are easily stressed, and are happiest when they are in their familiar surroundings.
Taking them out and about wouldn't be fun for them, and would most likely cause them a great deal of stress.
 
Thank you so much for that! I want to do what’s best for them.

The other thing is if you have piggies in a carrier when you're out and about, people are going to want to say hello. I had this problem when I had to get from Haywards Heath to Rochdale via train. They dealt with it pretty well but I can't imagine it was fun for them.
 
Please do not do this, piggies are prey animals and this would cause them far too much stress. Enjoying spending time at home with them
 
I would say no... that's far too much stress moving them out of their safe environment x
