I love guinea pigs. They are absolutely chill; capybaras and guinea pigs seem to be the same animal sized in xs and xl

I had one I used to hold in my arm like a football or a baby. His head would be in the crook of my arm and I'd hold his butt in my hand and he'd drape his back legs over my arm. He would stay like that for hours he was so content

I don't have any pictures of him handy, but he was adorable. Calico colored with short hair up front and long hair in back. And he was a big boi! He wasn't fat, just grew very large
