Do Guinea Pigs Jump? Do they ever…

When it comes to various different forms of guinea pig behavior, it’s always cool to find some fun stories that prove that indeed, our pets do have some crazy moves.

 

And when it comes to asking “do guinea pigs jump?” then this is a really fun item that I found on YouTube.

 

It’s all about a British guinea pig called Truffles, who this year became the proud new owner of the Guinness Book of Records Guinea Pig Long Jump title.  His record breaking long jump of 30cms was officially completed, recorded and he entered the fabled book along with his owner, 13 year old Chloe Macari who trained him for his achievement.

 

And, if that’s not enough, Truffles recently completed a massive 36.5 cm jump (shown below) – although this was not an official record breaking attempt, so his original record still stands.

When asked, his owner reckons that the super-food that powers this athlete into making his incredible efforts is….. the humble cucumber!

 

Of course, when looking at guinea pig behavior and do guinea pigs jump, of course we’ve probably all seen the delightful antic known as “popcorning,” when a happy piggy literally explodes into the air for the sheer joy of being alive.

 

Makes you proud to have them in your life, doesn’t it!

 

Till next time – love those piggies…
