Expert Profile: Shawntiah Jones

Expertise: I have great knowledge in many small and furry animals such as hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, chinchillas, guinea pigs, rabbits and ferrets. I have taken care all of these animals and have great knowledge in appropiate cage sizes as well as food and health.

Experience in the area
I no longer work at a petstore because I am now working at a hospital, but I worked in the petcare department for a year and was the petcare lead of my department.

What do you like about this subject? I love guinea pigs they are awesome and very sweet as pets.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field? I still hope to learn and achieve greater knowledge about guinea pigsas I answer questions that people ask me.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: Guinea pigs can purr very softly when you pet them.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject Guinea Pigs are known to be social and like to be with other guinea pigs. They actually do better with the other and if they are introduced properly they normally don't go into a full fighting brawl. Many scientist are trying to figure out whether a guinea pig is a rodent or a lagomorph.
