These rodents originated from South America; several different species can still be found there. It is thought that the ancestor of domesticated animals of this type was the restless cavy. This creature lives in small family groups in the long grass. They are also known by the name “cavy.” This name derives from the scientific name Cavia aperea. Nowadays, these animals are among the cutest small pets that people own. They like companionship and enjoy the human-animal bond that develops between owners and their pets. It is recommended to buy at least two cavies. A metropolitan guinea pig rescue is a good place to find this rodent for cheap; a breeder charges more.
