| Re: Help needed (theresa you might know) Maybe you can take the hidey houses out of their cage in the beginning and put other hidey houses in that are more like little platforms that they can hide under but where they are still visible for you.
I think you shouldn't really worry about them being scared. They are not used to all the sounds of an indoor environment, but they will get used to it.
Also make sure that your cavies will connect you with food. If you come to them, talk nicely to them and feed them veggies they like. Stroke them and when they are completely comfortable with that, you can take them up and cuddle them.
Your cavies will connect you with food and soon they will understand that cuddling and stroking is nice and they might get something to eat as well! |
