My cousin rehomed his two guinea pigs to me as he was becoming impatient with them (they were new to his home and were still getting comfortable I'm guessing). I've had them in my home for about a day now, and as expected, they've been in their hidey pretty much all the time. The reason I'm slightly concerned is that they haven't touched their pellet food or their water. I've heard them chomping away at their hay in their hidey but that's all. Is this normal? Or should i be doing something to get them to eat their pellet food as well, especially the water? Also, if I were to bond with them, would my presence near their cage startle or scare them away even more, or should i keep talking to them regardless? I also heard cuddling with them might work but I dont want to scare them by picking them up all of a sudden. How do I slowly introduce myself to them and get them to come out of their hidey more often?
