This is a sign showing if the guinea pigs want somthing or they are going to pee,you see, guniea pigs know not to pee on their owners so they give them a warning sometimes if you ignore them they will increase the hardness of the bite,but sometimes they just want loads of attention so try to figure out the signs and you will get along better,simple.
