Where do some of these stupid people come up with their stupid answers?
It's fine to bath them if the surrounding temp is warm, 70 -80 degrees. Wrap him up in a dry towel and hold him next to you. Make sure you are not in a room with an air conditioner running. After he quits shaking make sure his cage is not in a draft-by a window or under a celling fan, or in a room with A/C.. the webs will help you keep your piggie healthy..Mine are all over 6 years old.

he is prob. scaired. But i have never heard of giving a guinni pig a bath. If he is not better in a few min. take him to a vet and ask them what is going on. I will pray for him and you.

Try turning on the oven and letting it get warm then hold him IN FRONT of the open door - the heat should warm him up.

If he's dry and warm and still shaking, it's probably because he's been traumatized and is scared.

Don't say 'guinea'...the politically correct term is, 'Italian'...He's probably scared because they are not used to being bathed...

put him in a warm place in your house or even take him outside for a while until he stops ....its probably because he has the chills...mine got that once
