Pandy
Junior Guinea Pig
Our piggie Polo is really starting to come out of her shell since we got their new C&C cage (her piggie pal is Tedee). A moment ago I cut a carrot for my niece as she wanted some and the piggies started getting all excited. Polo was popcorning and simultaneously sort of shaking her head. Is this normal? Do piggies popcorn in different ways? When Tedee popcorns she doesn't shake her head. I quickly realised the reason for their excitement was that they thought it was food time (I usually feed their veggies around dusk) and they can hear me chop (first slice and they're off chattering, normally only Tedee though) even when the kitchen is at the other end of the flat!
Polo (who's asserted herself as the dominant one, Tedee's more playful) also sometimes sort of makes this low rumbling noise, lowers her body and moves slowly, in a sort of stalking way. I assume this is a dominance thing as usually it's when she's going into a hidey house or approaching Tedee, like "this is mine". Thanks
