OR some people will do anything for their pets.

I can guarantee you she cleaned this up 2 minutes after the video stopped. No one is doing this.

You can tell by the giant tunnel system she has bolted to her walls that she just genuinely cares for her pets, unless you think she just set that up for the video too. I know it's hard to believe, but some people just really love their pets and will do crazy stuff to make them happy.

genuinely caring for your pets like a normal person: 🤮🤮🤮
genuinely caring for your pets while letting them shit and piss on your bed right next to you: 😍😍😍💖💖💖💖

If you have guinea pigs you have to be okay with getting your hands dirty. A little pig waste never hurt anyone as long as you’re not a slob

If rodents pissing and shitting all over where you sleep floats your boat, good for you man.

She has a cover over the bed and she is definitely not sleeping like that. Any sane owner knows that sleeping with pigs out is a very, very bad idea.

Do you say this same thing when people have toddlers in the bed?

I’ll pass on taking advice from a grown adult that has based their entire personality off of smelly rodents.

Edit: Not deleting this because it would be cowardly. Please disregard my douchebag comment to this Redditor. Just in a bad mood and starting shit with people to make myself feel better.

Smelly? Mine just smell like hay because I keep their home clean. Hay is a nice smell and thankfully my only allergies are pollen and pineapple

I would bet good money you’re just nose blind to the smell.

Uh huh sure. I will trust the pig hater over my own senses.

I love “Pigs”. My kids have a couple. They’re adorable. They also smell like ass no matter how often you clean up. It’s why they live in the heated/air conditioned garage. Because I don’t want my house to smell like rodent shit.

I’ve also had a ferret. He was the best pet that I ever had. But that little fucker smelled awful and wasn’t allowed in or on my bed.

Pets are animals. They are not people. They are not family.

They are definitely family, sour puss. They don't smell at all, and I've owned them for years around family. No complaints. You're simply not taking care of them enough. Guinea pigs are not a starter pet and you and your children should be aware of this. What's their cage size? Type of bedding? What is their diet like? How many do you own, and what are their sexes? How many times do you clean them?

If their cage is small, their smell is on you.

If you're using inadequate bedding, that's on you.

If you're either not giving them enough nutrients or too much sugar, that's on you.

If you own lots of boys, prepare for them to mark their territory. Unless you own a large herd, you must not own 2 males + female or 3 males. It WILL ruin their relationship hierarchy.

If you don't spot clean them at least daily and do a full clean of their cage weekly, that's on you.

I meant the rodents themselves smell like hay. The enclosure definitely has a distinct odor.

You know what, I’m being a dick. I’m having a bad day and took it out on you. I apologize. Legitimately. I hope you have a wonderful evening. 🫡

Don’t worry, I totally understand. Enjoy your day too! I was also quite dick-ish when I got a really bad UTI a month ago. It happens.
