[@bmaz390]

I've heard my piggy chirp a couple of times. It was always late at night when she's sleeping. Then she's always relieved when I check on her and give her some cuddles. She even gives me a purr as she settles back in for the night. I think that she was having a nightmare. One time she "demanded" to sleep with me. When I went to check on her she leapt into my hand and started weeking and wouldn't stop until I made a little bed for her out of towels and a small cat bed I had. She spent the night next to me on the couch cuddled up to my arm. So I definitely think chirping is a fear response. In this case from bad dreams.

Noises: Weeking - 0:26 excitement particularly about being hungry (like a high pitched whistle) Chutting: 1:08 sound of contentment enjoying the moment (like a dolphin sound) Teeth chattering: 1:40 angry, annoyed, etc. (sounds like a hissing noise) Purring: 2:48 happy or angry depends on the situation (sounds like a grumble and a pur) Rumbling: 3:42 lower tone...when displaying dominance Chirping: 4:34 rare noise means sign of fear (sounds like a bird) Complaining: 5:12 when they want more space or don't want to share food (sounds like a squeaky noise) Popcorning: 5:45 sudden jumping usually when very excited. Running away from being picked up: 6:07 instinct or natural defense. Figiting while being held: 6:28 tired of being held or needs to use the bathroom Licking: 6:46 shows affection sometimes wants to groom you or licks you because because you taste good. Sprawling: 7:14 lies on side or belly: safe vulnerable position fully trust you. Hope that helps!! 🙏

My sister's first guinea pig used to 'weeek' loud and long, almost like he was singing, when he head her door alarm sound, just before she would walk through the door from work. Was so cute! RIP Patch.

[@juliemcgugan1244]

The same piggie was once accidentally got left out of his cage in a small cat bed (he was given free access to this while somebody was there, but was returned to his secured enclosure while he could not be supervised to ensure safety.) We returned to the house 20 minutes later to find that he'd scurried across the room to use his toilet in the opened cage (it had been cleaned and new toilet litter added,) then wandered back to the comfort of his cat bed when he was done!

I live right off a state highway, and so I frequently hear the sound of sirens from ambulances and other emergency vehicles driving by. So when I brought my first guinea pig home and heard him wheeking for the first time, I thought it was an ambulance siren! Then, when the sound didn’t fade away (like it usually does) I realized that it was coming from the guinea pig!

[@Talioooo]

[@Kriskat6]

I have experienced all of these. The chirping was so surprising and the girl looked like she was in a trance. All the other herdmates stopped and listened to her. She didn't seem afraid, but it was late at night. When I came and checked on her she settled down after I stroked her nose a few times.

I’ve just cleaned their cage and they were chutting- I literally came to this video to make sure they were okay

[@zr9145]

I once had a disabled piggie (almost totally blind and brain-damaged) who used his wheeks wrong. When he wanted attention his head would pop up at the front of his cage and he'd do a super moany wheek-if he wanted attention he'd let me pick him up. If he wanted feeding he'd kick my hand away and keep moaning 😂. In his own way he was the smartest pig I've ever known. That little bugger knew exactly how to play me!! Rip Norman!! Also regarding chirping- I had one girly that used to do it when another was sick. At the time I had seven cages with a mix of pairs-boys and girls. Somehow she always knew when someone was ill and picked it up and let me know.

[@zoecercando3096]

i was holding my piggy while listening to this and it was so cute he started chatting and purring when he heard it and chattered when he heard the chattering. i’ve been holding him everyday and giving him extra treats, as his brother and best-friend passed away about a week ago. rest in piece Buddy

[@goldenkookoo]

indeed, he made the "too close" sound and I had difficulties telling it apart from a happy sound. but now I know the differences and will make sure not to be too close for my first days of bonding with them. thank you a lot :)

Thanks for a good video. I kept guinea pigs as a teenager many years ago and I unfortunately never really had videos like these to tell me basic things about my new pets However I watched this video out of nostalgia for my g pigs and realize I learned naturally over time their ways of communicating with me. I had three males in total, first an elderly and a very young one, and then whe young one was older and the elderly one died I got another young one. They had very different personalities and I miss them all, but I am very thankful for the lives I shared with them and believe that I had a net positive impact on their lives and I hope to one day keep guinea pigs again.

I never knew or realized how similar rabbits and Guinea pigs were, minus the noise of course. Rabbits being more silent but popcorning is just like rabbit binkies. And other traits like licking to groom or show affection are found in rabbits as well

As a rabbit owner, I noticed this too.

[@martanem7252]

[@FoxxyFire-HellFrost]

I loved when my baby Marvin would wheek and purr when my jewelry would clank on my metal dresser knobs. He loved the sound. That's why sometimes he would frantically run to his little bell and ring it. It made him so happy! Of course, he also would purr when he heard our footsteps, and that made me happy too. He was a solo piggy because I didn't know you should have at least two as I was a first time owner. However, I think he had a very happy life and knew I loved him. I miss him a lot. ❤️

[@mmoocow123]

I've had tons of piggies and I knew all of this already, but it's nice to see a video with the facts straight. My Herbert will wheek SO loud for his dinner, and when I hold him he licks my arms before sprawling on my lap to take a nap! He even closes his eyes. I've never had a pig THIS comfortable with anyone, so it warms my heart.

[@BruhPoole]

I had a guinea pig when I was a child (around 10years old) ..One memory of her I will never forget is she was in my lap and I was rubbing her back, she did this little rumble noise that was longer than usual and kicked out her back legs (like sprawling) and just completely relaxed in my lap and let me rub her while I watched tv. Im 26 now and that memory of her still warms my heart and seeing that sprawling means that she fully trusted me makes it even better

My piggy started to wheek to me after 2 days i had him. I think he realized,that i dont hear the sounds he is making,so he started to do this loud wheeking. I think they are intelligent and they adjust and adapt to us. He is doing teeth chattering when i am cutting vegetables when im cooking. I guess he wants to say Dont you dare to forget to give me some pieces 😄 He is always happy jumping after i give him some. And recently he started to do a new noise when i have him in my lap. He is lying on his belly, head up,looking on me and doing that sound. I cant describe it. But it is like he was speaking to me. It sounds positive 🙂

[@rainingonyourcharade]

I have never been around guinea pigs, but we had a neighbor who was going off to college and decided she couldn’t take care of her less than a year old Abyssinian anymore so she gave him to my 7-year old daughter. I cannot believe I went 40 years without having the pleasure of owning one. I had absolutely no idea how affectionate and loving they could be, nor did I know how much personality they had. I guess we could have gotten lucky and been gifted an especially affectionate and friendly creature, but I really feel like I missed out all these years by not knowing them. He spends most of his day begging to be picked up (in the rare moments that he’s not already being held!) and he is just the sweetest creature ever.

[@amilton1015]

[@LeonAlkoholik67]

4:37 they can also make this noise in the middle of the night. Most likely because of a nightmare.
