<p class="MsoNormal">Well, even if I’m answering this for you, I have to admit one thing. I share the same strange fear of the creepy rodents with your mom. But yes, I also have to admit that their cuteness quotient dominates them hands down! The <span>guinea pig</span>, relatively mellow in nature most of the time. And do get to enjoy being handles and hanging around with their handler. A lot of time they’ll learn how to get litter box trained with a lot of time and effort and patience on your part. A lot of people also enjoy the fact that guinea pigs are a very vocal animal. Where they will kind of make noises for the fact that they’re happy or they’re upset. Love noises, purring, kind of like a cat would make noises around its owner. They’re really mellow, so they’re great around kids as a starter pet. And it's actually very interesting that guinea pigs are <strong>diurnal</strong>, meaning that they are awake during the day, and sleep at night, just like humans do. At first, I thought that guinea pigs were nocturnal, meaning that they slept during the day, and was awake at night, but I was wrong! So your mom need not worry. She might end up loving him more than you!!</p>
