QUESTION: soory to bother you but i have never had a guinea pig before and have a few questions so i hope you dont mind answering this one but my piggy seems to what to hind in every small space it can find and im scared it will get its self stuck is there anything i can do ???

Answer
Hi again

Its perfectly normal for a piggy to want to hide especially if she is quite new.

The only thing you can do is to not let her free in any rooms with hidy holes in and/or block of gaps between fridges etc. In other words, piggy-proof your house!
