When you stop in to check on your guinea pig, talk to it softly and calmly, while still keeping your distance at first. This will help to get your guinea pig slowly used to the sound of your voice and presence. After a few visits, you can try sticking your hand in your guinea pig’s cage. If your guinea pig is feeling adventurous, it might come and sniff your hand. Don’t try to pick your guinea pig up just yet; but rather keep your hand still. Be patient if your guinea pig won’t sniff your hand yet. It can take some time to build trust. Once it seems more used to your presence, entice it into a corner of its cage. Placing one hand under its belly, and your other hand under its rear end, gently pick it up. Alternatively, wrap one hand around its shoulders, and place your other hand under its rear end. Hold it against your chest and talk softly to it.  If your guinea pig seems calm, you can sit with it in a chair and pet it. If it is not calm, put it back in its cage and try again later. You can also try wrapping your guinea pig in a towel as you pick it up. Hold it to your chest, as this seems to make some feel safer. Try picking your guinea pig up on a daily basis for the first few weeks. Even if yours seems a little nervous or frightened, you will eventually become friends if you are consistently calm and patient with it. If your guinea pig starts to make a purring sound (like a cat), this may actually mean that it feels nervous.  Guinea pigs are generally gentle, but can bite or scratch if they are frightened.
