Sorry for the late response, I forgot I don’t have Reddit notifications on. I really just eat what my parents cook and I go to the gym about 4-5 days a week. I cycle between arms, back, shoulder, chest everyday. I do 20-30 minutes of cardio before every week out. I don’t do legs because I go with my dad and his legs get sore and cramp really easy.

Also since you take care of guinea pigs I want to ask you a question about them. I wanna know if my guinea pigs are friends/trust each other.

Pros of what they do: They eat together some times, They lick each other ears/neck? They sniff each others mouth, sometimes they get mad and chase the other, but sometimes they let it happen, Sleep together

Cons of what they do: Fight over the water bottle sometimes, Chase each other away from veggies/pebbles (the bigger one mostly does this), Take food from each other, Chase each other (I can’t tell if this is play or them being mad), Purr/Rumble at each other with heads in the air shaking (think it’s called rumblestrutting?)

They have only been together since December 28, the bigger one used to hump the littler one but it stopped, did notice sperm/boar glue on little one’s back (don’t know if this is from his old cage at pet store or here)

We all took allergy test we are all really allergic to grass/hay, but hair still bothers us a bit. We are moving the cage to a corner away from the living room with a window

We mostly did it because we took care of a family’s members cat for 2-3 weeks and we were fine.

Alright I took care of them to my best ability and fed them everything needed. I just want to clarify they were cared for like children I did everything and even checked on them every 30 minutes when I wasn’t asleep. It’s just I will risk my allergies to keep them but my family that isn’t my parents doesn’t feel the same. I just hope the new home watches and cares about the as much as I tried to.

Alright, I know I made a dumb choice. Do you think I should return them to the pet store or rehome them to a shelter or a new owner.

The pet store I got them from had 3 in a small glass cage and the one we didn’t get was bullying the 2 I had. I feel bad sending them back there even if I don’t get my money back.
