Thanks to all of you who pointed out that guinea pigs shouldn't be put in those plastic balls because it is bad for their backs.  I actually do read the comments, especially soon after posting a video, and we haven't put Mikey in a ball since then.

To those of you who posted hateful/abusive/etc. comments: fuck you. We know our children's personalities and likes/dislikes (including what scares them) way better than you, so STFU.

Mikey was OK with it: guinea pigs squeal when they are upset or frightened.

Those balls are really bad for your guinea pig as it could break his back. I know pet stores sell them, but pet stores dont give a shit about animals safety. Its all about the money.

Please dont use that ball, it is not safe for your Mikey.

Bad for guinea pigs it breaks their backs and YES, FYI it is a guinea pig.

Umm.... I think hamsters usually be put in those plastic balls, not guinea pigs...

ok yea lay off guys he would have been killed by the ferret then

maybe not killed but ferrets has a special way for fighting called mounting when they jump on something bigger or just as big

1st, if you read on the care of guinea pigs, they should not be put in balls. It damages thier backs and causes them pain. This is from a guniea pig owner.

@ILarious49145 Guinea pigs are not supposed to run in balls because their spine can't move like that, i have the same ball and im planning on takeing it back because i got it for a gift and just buying other stuff for my piggy
