Default Hello

I have had guinea pigs off and on over time. The first one my parents got when I was a child he was an albino American. The next one I had was Moe. My folks rescued him in wisconsin from some people who had him outside with a rabbit. Needless to say the poor guy had problems because he had not had the right diet. I then had another a few years ago her name was Brown Sugar but I had to give her up because I had an idiot for a boyfriend. I recently got my baby Bandit. My boyfriend now got me two adult males to keep him company but they started fighting. So I am having to find homes for the two adult males.

Hi--someone from over at Guinea Lynx told me you were trying to get ahold of me? I'm the guinea pig rescue in Auburn, WA.

What's your cage size? This is usually the biggest reason people have problems with males fighting--they don't have a large enough cage. How old are the adult males, and how old is Bandit?

I did send you a message on the 8th of this month. It is not only the fact that they are arguing, but I physically can't take care of three piggie. I am disabled and have DDD. At this point I will be able to take care of little Bandit, but three is too many. That is why I am hoping to adopt these little gentlemen out to someone who can.

I have no idea how old the adult piggies are, but Bandit was just a baby when I got him this spring so probably about 5-6 months old

Good luck. I'm sorry you have to give them up.

I'm sorry, I can't find any message from you! I seem to have problems with my yahoo email sometimes.

Have you contacted the shelters in your area? I'm full at this time, otherwise I could take them if you got them up here. Fall is a hard time for my rescue--I get lots of surrenders and returns and run out of room quickly!
