Long-haired guinea pigs, such as Peruvians or Silkies, require regular grooming to prevent their hair from matting. Grooming involves brushing their coat daily to remove any debris and prevent tangles. It is also important to provide a balanced diet, access to clean water, and a spacious living environment with opportunities for exercise.
