DETAILS

Chiko is an adorable 5-year-old brown and white male guinea pig. Sweet and gentle, he is a bit shy but loves to hide in his little shelters, just like any curious and cautious guinea pig. He has a taste for treats, hay, and fresh herbs, and will quickly show affection to those who approach him gently. Chiko has lived with a dog before, though they had no direct interaction, so he can adapt well to a calm and safe environment. If you’re looking for a sweet and loving little companion, Chiko could be the perfect guinea pig for you. He will need some patience at first, but with care and attention, he can become very affectionate and endearing
