10 reasons why you should own a human

One of our friends sent us a slideshow with 7 reasons why a human should get a guinea pig. Well.. that's all good fun for the humans, but we'd rather make a list of why we should own a human (don't tell the humans, but you all know we rule the world, right?)

1. Full body massages*
Need I say more? Best thing about being a guinea pig. Period.

2. The sipping of the tea
We actually don't know why, but we find it oddly comforting when J stares into space and makes those tiny slurpy noises

3. You can dress them up as a haystack
Yes! You can leave hay all over them, just in case you get hungry during your full body massage. Extra points if they have pockets to hide your poo

4. They make good sofa's
Humans are snuggly and warm. We love resting our head underneath a big chin. It feels so safe.

5. Tasty
Humans can be rather tasty. Try licking their skin, but watch out for the ones with the lotion

6. They are cheaper than a walkin' fridge
We're also not sure if they are actually invented yet, even though the commercial suggests otherwise


7. They don't make fun of your poo collection
They just throw it out every week *humpf*

8. You always feel smart around them
Ghe..

9. They're low maintenance pets
Really, they clean and feed themselves. You just need to talk to them and make them feel welcome when they get home

10. They can be very entertaining
Ours does bellydancing. It's hilarious, like our rumblestrutting, but less advanced. But it just fills our hearts to see the poor soul have so much fun

So.. how does your human entertain you? And do you have tips to help us get more out of our humans?

  1. My human gives me treats all the time! If you want food,just wheek everytime they come near the kitchen or the refrigerator. Another trick to get more snuggles is give them The Puppy Face.It works everytime! My human entertians her self by doing hiliraous dances like belly dances also.We think she might be trying to rumble strut.

  3. Our human sings to us when she is cleaning our cages. Not sure if that is a good thing or not but it gives us all a laugh.
