You can tell if a guinea pig dislikes its owner by its attitude and behavior. If it runs away as soon as its owner approaches, and resists being played with or petted, then there's no doubt the guinea pig dislikes its owner. To get your guinea pig to be affectionate, you need to cater to its preferences, feed it its favorite treats and fruits and vegetables every day, play with it often, and be patient.
Signs that a guinea pig dislikes its owner
If a guinea pig doesn't like its owner, it will run away as fast as it can when it hears the owner's voice or sees the owner approaching. If it's in a cage, it will hide in a corner and only come out when you leave.
It may also attack its owner. When you pet or play with the guinea pig, it will butt your head in protest. In this case, the owner should stop having close contact with it, otherwise it will dislike you even more.
To get your guinea pig to be affectionate, you need to understand its habits and cater to its preferences. Guinea pigs are sensitive and timid and cannot be easily frightened, so don't tease them at first. You can feed them some of their favorite fruits and vegetables daily, play with them, and gradually build rapport. If they don't reject your approach, you've succeeded halfway.
