ADOPTED! Chopper has been there the longest of the guinea pigs at the shelter. He's a friendly one year old who's good with kids. He's "slightly active." I don't know if this rating system applies to guinea pigs as well as it would dogs, for example. I haven't been to WHS, but I think the majority of guineas are more timid in shelters than they would be if securely in their forever home--maybe yours? They have a great site if you're thinking of adopting here.
(trim his nails when you adopt him--ouch!)
Adopted! Baby Piggy, ADOPTED! May-May, and Adopted! Squeak-Squeak were all surrendered together. I'm not sure who is who in the photo. Also, it doesn't seem like the shelter is requiring them to be adopted together, but I'm not positive. Baby Piggy is a five month old boar who is cautious with people. May-May is eleven months old and is also cautious around people. No wonder! They were given up when their owner moved out of state. That would make me wary. Squeak-Squeak is also eleven months old and has a medium-length coat.
Adopted! Co-Co, ADOPTED! Snowball, and Adopted! Patches were surrendered to the shelter because a family member had allergies. Again, I don't know who is who or whether they have to be adopted together. Co-Co is a nine month old boar, tri-color, and small. He's cautious around people. Snowball is a white boy, nine months old, and of medium size. Patches is a tri-color boar, medium size. He is nine months old and cautious around people.
