How to pick up a guinea pig

Hi readers, todays post is about how to pick up a guinea pig which is a very important thing to learn if you are going to look after guinea pig or getting your own a guinea pig.

All guinea pigs are different so don't expect them all to be the same. My guinea pigs don't really like being picked up which is a bit of a pain!!!

Lets get started!!!

To start with get your guinea pig in an area without any where for them to hide and then carefully put your hand under their tummy with 1 finger either side of their front leg and the other hand under their bum, then bring them close to your body.

Safety tips:
NEVER let young children pick up or hold a guinea pig unsupervised.
Until your guinea pig is used to being held sit down whilst holding them.

I hope you find this helpful,
