I became a guinea pig mommy 2years ago and the 2 males I got were amazing ! Still have one.
I then picked up 2 females from a lady and her 2 daughters : cinnamon/white color.. Both extremely scared of humans -- can't say how they were treated but it was enough for me to Rehome them, as I didn't see any possibility of improvement (or I lacked the desire to have patience.. Not enough time ) they went to a great GP outdoor-run I trusted was ideal for them to be with other gals.
So a month ago a friend passed Jewel to me -( per landlord request )
.. She's Paranoid scared and purely petrified of humans ... Just runs and hides like a maniac.. As if I'm gonna eat her! The owner I got her from says she was like that from the start when he got her young at the pet store. From interacting with him, I could tell he didn't cause her more strain. He's a patient gentle man..
So I then thought "maybe that's how females are?" But no--- my white longhair girl (avatar) is super awesome
..My honest opinion?...it's not a good pet ..
