Dr Pigman Freud is a guinea
pig psychotherapist and oinkologist formerly of the University
of Vienna. He's been treating my little herd for years.
A number of people have asked if they could refer their
questions about guinea pig behavior to Dr Freud and I'm
pleased to announce that he has consented to advise them
through me. Those of you that wish to submit questions should
email them to me and eventually he will answer them in a
column "Ask Dr Pigman Freud". Remember that he is a psychotherapist,
not a veterinarian, so limit your inquiries to aspects of
guinea pig behavior rather than physical ailments.-- Hugh
M. Kramer

Why does sometimes a piglet chew when he/she has his/her
backside rubbed.

asks: "Dr. Freud, exactly how smart are guinea pigs?"

"Do guinea pigs ever suffer from the so-called 'Oedipigal
Complex'?"

"I have two male GPs living alone together. Do you think
they have forgotten about girls? Should I get them a lady
bunny rabbit for company?"

of this guinea pig is reported before Dr P. Freud's answer.
