Don’t Panic
The visit to the veterinarian can be a terrifying experience, but if you stick together with your friends, like these three courageous guinea pigs did, the trip can be made more bearable. On the examination table of the veterinarian, the Three Musketeers were captured in a photograph while they were huddled together.
Guinea pigs are highly social animals that thrive best when kept in groups of at least two individuals. These “herds,” as they are colloquially referred to, enable members of the group to experience feelings of increased safety and a decreased level of stress. It’s no surprise that these four-legged pals stayed together in the waiting room.
