She has definitely gotten used to us as the time has past, the growling is like a combo of teeth chattering and rumbling, however recently she has been more vocal. We call it screaming because the other three do it for attention, food, water (or Oreo who screams at us if she hears a simple bag crinkling) I’m not sure the proper turn but it’s like squeaking or squealing really. She’s started to also be vocal when she hears the other three and has when we bring one back to interact safely through the cage, she’s very vocal and very interested in them.
She’s also shown a lot of personality, she likes redecorating her cage and hiding under blankets and anything resembling a tent. We also have a small play pen set up near the other three where if we can catch her, which is very rare and we don’t try often, we let her interact with the other three with very strict supervision because she does still occasionally attack.
For treats we give fresh greens, apples, carrots, as those are her absolute favorites, she absolutely devours apples when she’s given small pieces or even apple flavored treats.
For my last post: this is the feral, aggressive, insane beast that is Winny. Now, I know Guinea pigs, I know they need to be in groups, but, she cannot. She has bitten me simply for existing. If I cough or move, she growl at me. And I do mean GROWLS. She is a feral beast compared to the three tame, loving, gentle sweet hearts that are Oreo, Dixie, and Waffles. Her nickname is also Squirrel because her fur makes her look like a grey squirrel. She is currently staring me down and growling at me, and is not appeased by the fresh fruits I have given her to snack on with her food dish
Sorry for all the sad-ish reposts on my main, 8 years of trust, care, love, and respect is going down the drain and my mood swings are really getting to me and I’m honestly just in a weird state of limbo now
As they block me and remove me from their socials and just disappear without a word said in warning…

My name is Sirius, I use It/its or He/him! I’m 21 years old and pregnant!
This blog is mainly for my random posts about pets and more!
I’m not a fan of transphobes so please leave if you can’t respect my identity as a masc presenting agender person!
Why is it so hard to socialize guinea pigs? We have 4 now, we just got two more from a family member who couldn’t care for them. However, upon introduction of all the pigs to each other, the small grey one named Winny immediately became aggressive towards each larger pig without any apparent reason. Shortly after separation of the larger 3 from Winny, she charged at me and my family. Oreo and Dixie (our original 2 piggies) were very friendly and curious and only sniffed at her before the attacks, Winny has a bad history with Waffles, the other new pig we have. Waffles, Oreo, and Dixie all get along fine though.
to all my fellow trans americans…being trans is a gift, being queer is a gift, anyone who says otherwise is wrong and we will always exist no matter what they try to do. I am proud of who I am and I am proud of who you are.
Btw, this is how conservatives keep getting to claim that trans people are a new thing no one has ever heard, because our history and existences have continually been erased or obscured systematically through out history.
The most famous example was 92 years when the Nazis raided the library of the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft, the medical practice where the term transsexual was first coined and the first gender affirming surgery was performed in in 1931.
What did the Nazis do after raiding the library on May 6th, 1933? You may be familiar with these images
It is happening again.
Kinda relate to this, can’t really say much else about that

I hate Macron and yet I agree with him. Like this man has been horrible to France (I took French for 4 years and my classroom cheered for every protest to happen in France) and yet…. Even he can see the BULLSHIT that is America.
