You could injure your guinea pig if you pick him up
improperly and he could even die if you drop him. Thus you need to handle him
with care. Ensure that your guinea pig is comfortable with you before you try
to pick him up. Sit by his enclosure as you sing or talk to him softly. Drape
your hand inside for exploration and try hand feeding him. Act efficiently as
you pick up your guinea pig. Position one hand under his chest just behind his
front legs. As you lift, use the other hand to scoop up his rear end. Pull your
guinea pig to your chest to keep him from wriggling away. Be prepared to put
him down on a safe surface rather than dropping him. Never pick up your guinea
pig by a leg or the scruff of the neck. For more information, contact
your pet clinic Grayson, GA.
