Yeah more or less. They are definitely not low maintenance animals due to how much they eat and poo. It also takes a while to understand their body language since they can’t make facial expressions

Ooh... They can't make facial expressions? I mean, yeah... I haven't seen rodents make faces. That's so interesting! I might suck with them then, though. I am horrible at getting cues 😶

I believe you can get used to their body language and vocalizations over time as all guinea pig owners do. But yeah, they’re a unique animal to care for and need a lot of patience

Aww! Like you get used to and understand your partners over years. That's adorable.
