Guinea pig purring isn't always about happiness like it is with cats. It's more nuanced and can signify different things depending on the context and the specific tone of the purr.
Here's a breakdown:
Contented Purr (Low, Gentle): This is the closest to a cat's purr. It usually means the guinea pig is feeling comfortable, safe, and content. They might be purring while being petted gently, eating a favorite treat, or relaxing in their enclosure. It is the result of the situation about the contented%20purr.
Rumbling Purr (Deep, Vibrating): This often indicates dominance, especially in boars (male guinea pigs). A boar might rumble to assert his position within the herd or to court a sow (female guinea pig). Sometimes, females will do it too. It is about the rumbling%20purr.
Irritated Purr (High-Pitched, Can Sound Like a Chut): This isn't a pleasant sound. It can signal mild annoyance, disagreement, or nervousness. If a guinea pig is being held in a way it doesn't like or is near another guinea pig it's not fond of, it might make this sound. You should stop doing what you do when you hear that kind of purr. It is a sign of the irritated%20purr.
Key Considerations:
Therefore, you should always consider the surrounding and other sounds.
