๐น๐ค The Cutest Sleepers: Guinea Pig Naptime! ๐ค๐น
Did you know that guinea pigs sleep in short bursts throughout the day? At Cheshire Guinea Pig Rescue, we canโt get enough of their adorable sleeping habits! Hereโs what you might notice about your sleepy piggy:
1. Cozy Positions: Guinea pigs often curl up into a ball or stretch out comfortably while they snooze. Itโs a sign they feel safe and secure!
2. Dreamy Sounds: Sometimes, you might hear soft chirps or little squeaks while they dream. Itโs the cutest reminder that theyโre happy and relaxed!
3. Quiet Time: Unlike some pets, guinea pigs are light sleepers and tend to stay alert to their surroundings. They may nap for 20 minutes to an hour but are always ready to perk up at the slightest sound!
4. Snuggly Buddies: If you have more than one guinea pig, they often cuddle together during naptime. Itโs heartwarming to see them sharing warmth and companionship!
5. Importance of Rest: Just like us, guinea pigs need their beauty sleep to stay healthy and energetic. Make sure their space is cozy and quiet for optimal napping!
Share a picture of your guinea pig catching some Zโs in the comments! Weโd love to see their adorable sleeping poses! ๐ฅฐ

Did you know that guinea pigs have a unique way of communicating? Each sound they make has a special meaning! At Cheshire Guinea Pig Rescue, we love deciphering their adorable โvocabulary.โ Here are some common sounds to listen for:
1. Wheeking: This is the classic โIโm hungry!โ sound. When they hear the fridge door or the rustle of veggies, expect a chorus of wheeks!
2. Purring: A low purring sound usually indicates contentment. If your guinea pig is snuggled up and purring, theyโre happy!
3. Chutting: This sound often happens when guinea pigs are exploring or excited. Itโs their way of expressing curiosity and joy!
4. Whining: If you hear a soft whining noise, it could mean theyโre feeling a bit anxious or want attention. Always check in on them if you hear this sound.
5. Popcorning: Not exactly a sound, but when they bounce around joyfully, itโs the cutest dance ever! It shows theyโre feeling playful and happy!
Understanding these sounds helps strengthen the bond with your furry friend. Share your guinea pigโs favorite sounds or moments in the comments! ๐ฅฐ

Letโs celebrate the joy of movementโguinea pig style! Did you know that when our furry friends are happy, they often do a little dance called โpopcorningโ? ๐๐พ
Popcorning is when guinea pigs jump and bounce around in excitement, and itโs the cutest sight ever! Itโs their way of expressing joy and playfulness, and it always brings a smile to our faces.
This week, letโs embrace the spirit of dance! Share a video or a photo of your guinea pig popcorning, and tag us! Letโs fill our feeds with adorable moments and celebrate the happiness that our furry friends bring into our lives.

Casper & Odin say hi from foster care ๐๐ฅฐ #guineapigs #cavy #animalrescue #animalsanctuary #permanents #blindpet #fostercare
Very sad news from the Sanctuary. A few weeks ago we lost the lovely Graham due to old age ๐ข weโd known for about 3 months that heโd been slowing down, but he finally decided his time was done and he went peacefully in his sleep overnight ๐ญ Heโd been living in Eleanorโs herd since falling out with other neutered boar Dustin, and everyone will miss him (especially Eleanor & her old neutered boy Ayar who was Grahamโs BFF). Weโll miss the best cucumber stealing, photo posing, bag eating (especially bin bags!!) of boys; but we know we gave him the best life & retirement possible๐กโค๏ธโ๐ฉน๐ - hoping thereโs as many plastic bags as he can eat across the rainbow bridge ๐คโค๏ธ#guineapigs #cavy #animalrescue #animalsanctuary #RIP #popcornfree #rainbowbridge #missingyou
