PA-Adams County SPCA-Three small adult males

Adams County SPCA; Gettysburg, PA: Peanut and Brothers Chuck, Albuquerque and ADOPTED! Filmore!

*NEW* Peanut is a poor piggy! Her owner passed away, and eventually she found herself at the shelter. She is a very sweet girl, in need of a forever home and some love.



Chuck (first pictured) Albuquerque (second pictured) and Filmore (third pictured pictured) are three brothers who were surrendered to the shelter when their owner could no longer care for them. The three of them were purchased at auction then given to their owners, who never really wanted them in the first place. Please see the links below for helpful care tips. Their bio also offers helpful information. GUINEA PIG LESSON: If an animal is a gift it should be consensual. The surprise animal gift rarely works well for any parties involved (allergies, vet costs, ongoing costs, interest, space, life changes, etc.).






* AAGP recommends quarantining any new guinea pigs
for 2-3 weeks and confirming the sex yourself.
Many sad accidents or "accidents" can be avoided this way. *

Reeses is a one year old male guinea pig.

Peanut is a three week old male. GUINEA PIG LESSON: The shelter says he's easy to hold, but baby guinea pigs are typically very skittish and can twist out of small hands easily. Not good for a family with young kids, contrary to common perception!
