Nothing is wrong with Miss Piggy, guinea pigs don't have great eye sight so the fist thing she knows about you wanting to get her out is a dirty great big blurry thing swinging into her territory! It's always a shock, try talking to her in a clear voice every time you go to the cage, while your opening it and give her a second to recognize you. Soon she'll get use to your voice meaning she's going to get out. Good luck

nothings wrong
guinea pigs can be very skittish
mine does this
take all her hiding spots out of the cage and figure out a way to corner her
i have 2 guinea pigs and one of them does this a lot
nothing wrong with her like i said
shes just skittish

Nothing. Sometimes it scares me how much people who DON'T own guinea pigs know more than those who do. *Ahem*
Nothing is wrong with your pig, she's fine. If I'm not mistaken she's new, right? She's just scared, after all she IS in a new place.

Perfectly normal guinea pig response. It's instinct for them to dart around at any sight or sound. Doesn't mean she doesn't like you, it's just the way they are.

I had four guinea pigs and they all did that. I think it's normal.

My pig always does this, then he lets me pick him up. It's normal, so don't worry. :)
