If you hear the growl from your guinea pig, just start petting them very gently to calm him or her down. In no time, the growl may turn into a delighted purr. And, it usually means that they are angry, unhappy or agitated at a certain situation. Keep doing this until the chattering eventually goes away. But if you plan to raise two males, chattering will without a doubt happen as they try to figure out some sort of cage dominance.
Just try your best to keep them from fighting, since they have to eventually learn to co-exist with one another. It usually means your guinea pig is sensing immediate danger or is feeling pain and discomfort. For example, if one of your guinea pigs bites another, you will likely hear a shriek.
This noise is vocalized when the piggy is being disturbed or bothered. If you or a fellow cage mate interrupts his or her nap, you may hear this noise. Just step away, and let them be. If you would like information from an Anti-Cruelty Society Behavior Specialist regarding this behavior topic, please call or email behavior anticruelty. They are generally gentle and not prone to biting, but they will nip at threatening animals or people that are mishandling them.
To Rabbit Communications Your new bunny will not bark or meow, but she will be able to communicate her moods and intentions quite clearly. Communication between two species takes time and patience as both parties learn to speak a new language. Shivering is a symptom of conditions like respiratory infections, so your pig is probably as uncomfortable as he looks.
Getting him checked out ensures that everything is OK, and that if need be, he can take some medicine to help him make a full recovery. Tom Ryan is a freelance writer, editor and English tutor.

Typical Temperature Guinea pigs are warm-blooded, of course, but that doesn't mean that they can comfortably live in just any temperature. Bathing a Pig If your guinea pig is shivering after a bath, you should change the way you bath him.
Avoiding Extremes When your guinea pig shivers and you can't regulate the temperature of the room, it's time to move him. Getting Checked Out If your guinea pig is shivering, but the room is the right temperature with no environmental factors, it's time to see a veterinarian.
Guinea pigs frequently convey their cheerful moods through giving off cozy and deep vibrating noises. Vibrating in cavies can denote feelings other than giddiness as well. If you're petting your guinea pig and feel her body vibrating, it often means that her mind is at ease and that she's in a jovial, pleasant mood. When guinea pigs are joyful, they sometimes produce high tweeting sounds, too. Some guinea pigs vibrate when they feel apprehensive and anxious. If your critter's vibrating is driven by fear, it might have an extremely clipped and rapid sound.
The overall tone of fear-induced vibrations is generally more subtle. Human beings tremble when they're in cold temperatures, and guinea pigs do the same.
If your guinea pig's vibrating is related to feeling chilly, it might be reminiscent of fear vibrating, rather than happy vibrating. This sometimes happens when guinea pigs get out of baths.
