How Guinea Pigs Are Like Cats

 

I made this venn diagram to show how guinea pigs are a lot like cats in a lot of ways :)

    Guinea pigs are: rodents; they're smaller; and are more skittish

    Cats are: well, they're cats; they're bigger; and friendlier

    Both: whiskers; they purr; they clean themselves; they're usually grumpy 😜; and they sometimes scratch people (in the case of guinea pigs, accidentally, but it still hurts!). 

    Ooh and I forgot to add something to the venn diagram-- both guinea pigs and cats puff up when they are feeling threatened. It's an adaptation and instinct that makes them appear bigger and scarier to predators. You may have noticed your guinea pig or cat do this!
