NY-Craigslist-b/w guinea pig

LISTING REMOVED. Moriches (Long Island), NY: Not much detail here. A black and white guinea pig, sex not specified, is being rehomed because of the child's allergies (reason #1094 to not buy a guinea pig as a present). He or she comes with cage, food, and bedding. Just for funsies I'm going to post the bulk of the ad here, as syntactically it reads quite humorously.

"Black and white guinea pig child allergic, comes with cage food and bedding." It sounds like the latest br33der development. A half guinea pig/half human child--try getting him to eat vegetables! Hah hah hah, aww.

LISTING REMOVED. Reading, PA: Sweet young guinea pig who is used to being handled (and terrified by being put on a leash). He comes with his cage, water bottle, and food dish. Adopt this piggy and give him his dignity back.

LISTING REMOVED. Philadelphia, PA: two beautiful young guinea girls need a forever home. They are snuggly girls, one an abby, one a short hair. Transportation can be provided, and they come with a cage, water bottle, food bowl and accessories. I'm not positive as to whether they're bonded or not.

POST EXPIRED. New Jersey: three guinea pigs need a new home, as their current family feels they don't give them enough attention. They are tan and white; black and white; and black, tan and white. They come with a large cage, water bottle (get two more!), and some food. This sounds like a nice way to start caring for guinea pigs. A preestablished herd is more entertaining and more self-sustaining in terms of needing attention. Caring for three isn't much more work than caring for two. Responsibly, they are asking for a small adoption fee. They don't list the sexes, so you'll want to determine that ASAP, and determine if you need a pregnancy watch. And post here if you've adopted them!

LISTING REMOVED. Morgantown, WV: guinea pig needs a new home. A two year old chocolate brown guinea pig (sounds cute!), sex unknown, is really "kool" and loves to have his/her belly scratched. The dear guinea needs a new place as the owner is moving to a home that does not allow guinea pigs.

NJ-NJ Have-a-Heart Pigs

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.

New New Jersey Have-a-Heart piggies! They're without pictures as of now, so I'm also going to feature three pigs with photos after the newbies.

BeeBee is a cute young boar who was given up because of allergies. He is eight months old and is a rust and white abby. He is used to being around dogs and cats.

ADOPTED! Coconut is an eight month old boar who was given up because of allergies. He is used to being around kids, dogs and cats. He is a rust and black abby.

Aden and Bane are a bonded pair who were returned to the rescue because of allergies after they thought they'd found their forever home. They are two years old and ten months. Aden is a black and white abby, and Bane is a cute tri-color American. They are used to being around kids, dogs, and cats.

Levi has been in the rescue since late September. He is a cute black, white and blonde American. Levi is five months old and used to kids, dogs, and cats.

Now on to our pigs with pictures! The theme of this post is "the Sow Power Hour."

ADOPTED! Meso is a gorgeous piggie, if I've ever seen one. She is a year and one month old, and came to the rescue in poor shape, as she had been kept outside. It is never suitable to house guinea pigs outside. Now Meso is doing much better, and is used to kids, dogs, and cats.


LISTING REMOVED--> Snickers and Skittles are two beautiful bonded sows. These rust abbys came to the rescue in August, and are used to dogs and cats. They are adults.


Maxine and Juliet are neat looking bonded sows. They were brought to the rescue in late September because their owners were moving. They are used to kids, dogs, and cats. This mother and daughter pair is two years old and one year old, plus some change, respectively. Maxine is a tri-color crested girl, and Juliet is a tri-color American.
