PA-Have-A-Heart Guinea Pig Rescue

NOTE: DUE TO TIME CONSTRAINTS AND THE LARGE NUMBER OF HAVE A HEART GUINEA PIGS, HAH ENTRIES WILL NO LONGER BE RETROACTIVELY UPDATED. MY APOLOGIES FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE THIS CAUSES. THE HAH WEBSITE WILL OFFER THE MOST UP TO DATE INFORMATION.

Pennsylvania is not to be out done! Here is a new PA Have-A-Heart piggie, as well as three pigs who have been waiting for homes for quite a while.


Willow is a young black and blonde Abby girl who is used to being around cats and dogs. She won't be available until Valentine's Day of 2008 because she's on pregnancy watch. Adopting her would be such a gift of love all around! This sentence from her bio makes me so sad " Willow came into the rescue on 12/19/07 when her owners no longer wanted her." If you think you'd like to adopter her but have an intact male at home, why not consider donating toward her spay?


Buster and Benji--these poor boys! They were adopted and then returned to the rescue in mid-November of 2007. Their adopter "didn't feel they warmed up to her quick enough." Guinea pigs aren't creatures that quickly bond to their person, like dogs or cats. Generally they bond to other guineas, and at best will tolerate you giving them chinnies. 75% of the time they think you're a giant bird who tried to cut their nails. Seriously, you love them, and hope they gush on you back, but don't expect it.

Plus their first two weeks they're petrified. Anyway, the two boys must be adopted together. They are very good guinea pigs who are about a year and a half old. Benji is the tri-color abby, and Buster is a black and white American. Can't adopt? Why not donate toward their neuters?


Charlie and Johnnie are two bonded, neutered boys who are extremely sweet. Charlie is the more dominant of the two, and he loves rearranging the cage to his exact specifications. Johnnie is a more a go with the flow type boy. Sounds like a great pairing of pig personalities.


These poor guys will have been in the rescue a year on the 29th, to no fault of their own. They were given up because their child decided he didn't want them anymore. Don't give your kids pets who live longer than their attention spans. Charlie and Johnnie are used to being around kids, dogs and cats. Charlie is two years and nine months old, and is the black and white American. Johnnie is the rust and white American who is four years and two months old.




Turbo is such a cute boy! I cropped his photo because he's on the counter next to an oven, and that just made me feel weird inside. But I would bet Turbo's a pretty calm guy if he's willing to pose there! He is a young boy who has been in the rescue since mid-May of this year. He is a cutie-pie brown agouti, rust and white American, and has become used to dogs and cats since entering the rescue. If you can't adopt Turbo, why not consider donating toward his neuter?
