if u are over 12 id say get something u can have a little fun with lyk a rat ,a chinchilla ,a dog or something that involves a little more effort for alot more fun!
piggies are great pets and they do love you though.

Guinea pigs are amazing pets. They are very easy to keep and easy to clean and feed. They are quite cheap too (once you have bought all the nesceties such as the cage). Also, if you ever go on holiday they are very easy to just give to a neighbour or friend till you come back because all they have to do is fill up the food and water. They can also be very sweet and sociable as long as you train them from an early age to be picked up. Guineapigs are not usually too smelly either, well especially the females. Just make sure you clean the cage out often.
Hope this has been some help! Goodluck!

i used to have a guinea pig,as long as you take good care of it and love it the guinea pig should be happy. There cheap and fun to have as a small pet,but it's true that they sometimes don't do much but sleep most of the time so they would be a great pet for a calm person.

People who don't like most rodents are often fine with guinea pigs. They have no tail, and they look more like a bunny than like a rat.
They are easy to take care of, and they don't bite (in my experience). They are not very bright. I could never teach mine not to pee in my lap.
A guinea pig isn't my favorite rodent personally (I like rats best) but it is a nice pet.
