Question
DO GUINEA PIGS POOP WHEN THEY ARE SCARED? DO GUINEA PIGS PEE WHEN THEY ARE SCARED? ALSO WILL THEY DO EITHER ONE OR BOTH IF THEY ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH THEIR SURROUNDINGS? IF YES, WHAT IS BEST FOR ME TO DO?

Answer
Hello,
It is normal for guineas to poo and wee just like we do, they poo and wee to get things out of their digestive system. Sometimes guineas poo and wee because they are scared but mostly they wee because they are relaxed or they have just been drinking. Do not worry guineas poo and wee quite alot.
Best wishes
