How can i make floor time more fun for my guinea pigs? Whenever i let them out they seem like they want to go back to their cage (they try climbing it and they bite on the cage wire)

Try encouraging your guinea pigs to play with interactive toys, give them things to chew on, and offer them treats, like baby carrots, when they are out of their cage. This will help them associate being out of the cage with something positive. You may also want to try taking them to a different room from the one the cage is in. This may make them more curious and more likely to want to explore instead of them wanting to go back in the cage. I hope this helps. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. Best of luck.
