It’s illegal to own just one guinea pig in Switzerland
Enforcing a series of laws to protect animals is totally necessary. After all, these creatures are innocent and can’t defend themselves against people who may want to do them wrong. Still, the following information was a total and happy surprise for us and may also be for other pet owners.
Apparently, it’s illegal to own just one guinea pig in Switzerland because they may feel lonely. Since these animals are very social creatures, they’re considered to be victims of abuse if their owners don’t let them regularly interact with other members of their species. This law is not only logical but sweet.
