when i am gone for awhile and i come into the room where the GP is, he weeps like a little school girl. he even stretches against the cage and gets on his hind legs to look higher for me. inisde i am hoping he is doing this because he missed me, but i think the little bugger is looking for food lololol
 
Right now I live in a studio apartment and so my guinea pig is in the center of my living space. I am constantly around, and I feel she truly enjoys all of the interaction. She's an only guinea pig right now, and I think she needs a lot of attention from me to keep from getting lonely. It sounds like your guy is an only guinea pig, too. He probably gets lonely when he's alone for long periods of time, so he is excited to see you again when you come back. But I also know that my guinea pig sees me as the person who gives her snacks, and I know she associates me with her food. So, it's probably a combination of the two. He's happy for the company, but he figures if you're there, you might as well be feeding him, too. :)
 
my gals alwaz stand up looking for me when it's dinner time
 
My pigs are kinda like that, too. George will run over to climb on the side of the cage and yell at me if he hears me and I don't stop to scratch him. If that doesn't work, he grabs his noisy bell toy and tugs it and runs to the side to look for me. It's very cute and absolutely hilarious if you ignore him for a few minutes. He gets very adamant!!!


When they hear the hay bag opening they both come running and Superman squeaks like he's afraid he will be forgotten unless he wakes the dead!

They are as bad as my kids!
