Guinea pigs are known to be very shy, so you have to prove to the guinea pig that you are gentle by simply approaching your guinea pig slowly and calmly and then eventually pet or pick him/her up. You can also find ways to tame your guinea pig, either with food or a treat. Try to do anything to make it feel safe. You can simply be dealing with a guinea pig that is nervous, or you are dealing with something that is very common and normal for your guinea pig.

What happens when a guinea pig is cool to the touch?
If your guinea pig is that cold, that is definitely not a good sign. The temperature should be about 64oF - 72oF. No lower or higher. Or if your guinea pig is not moving either, it could have passed away. When an animal dies, the blood stops moving, therefore the blood temperature severely drops.
Do you say keep in touch or stay in touch?
