    My guinea oig makes a funny noise sometimes rather like a cat purring while he is doing this he kind of well vibrates!! Is he shaking and making a noise because he is scared or is this a happy noise.This is my first guinea pig the wee guy is 7 weeks old his eating habits are fine and he seems to be otherwise happy and healthy.He get enough veg < cabbage cabage leafs n carrots> he also gets a vitamin b supplement in his waterand plenty of excersise and petting so what could this weird noise be ibn aid of or he simply just talking to me.Any answers and other piggy info would be great thanks folks

    Yup. CBW is very right. They purr when they are happy, happy, happy. If you want to know more about Guinea Pigs, the sounds they make, body language,. just do an internet search on Guinea Pigs. I am sure you will find plenty of info.
