Guinea Pigs:

Guinea pigs (also know as cavy) are gentle and lovable pets, perfect for just about anyone.

Guinea pigs are of the rodent family but are very cute, and in comparison to pretty much every other rodent very clean. Guinea pigs love attention and are quite friendly with humans. Guinea pigs rarely ever bit as long as you are gentle and do not scare them they shouldn’t try too run away. Guinea pigs should live about 4-7 years if well cared for, may live slightly more or less.
