NY-Erie County SPCA-many guinea pigs

Doing a recap on well-guinea populated shelter, the Erie County SPCA!

* LISTING REMOVED. Leroy, contrary to the song, is a small fellow. He's a bitty baby.
* LISTING REMOVED. Scrabble is a small young male. It's worth a cosmic triple word score if you adopt him.
* LISTING REMOVED. Eclipse is a small young male. Cuddling him helps blocks out the bad days.
* LISTING REMOVED. 2470214 is a medium sized baby boar. I think he look more like a Roger.

* LISTING REMOVED. 2470236 is a medium sized baby boar. He's the spitting image of a Jackson.
* LISTING REMOVED Greg is a small adult male. I...don't have any jokes about Gregs. He'll be beloved by people who were teens in the 70s?
* LISTING REMOVED. Peter is a small adult male. Though less popular than Greg, he will have a niche following.
* LISTING REMOVED. Dolly is a small baby girl. Say "Hello" to her when you bring her to her forever home!

* LISTING REMOVED. Calvin is a small adult male who has perfect attendance for being lovable.

* LISTING REMOVED. Dennis the non-Menace is a small young male.

* LISTING REMOVED. Marianne is a beautiful small adult sow. Her photo looks like the cover of a Leonard Cohen album.

* LISTING REMOVED. Ronnie is a gorgeous small adult female.

POST DELETED. Bloomingburg, NY: This is an odd and terrible one. The poster is charging for the cages, the piggies are a nice perk. One piggy is a long haired, brown sow who is believed to be pregnant (yeesh), one piggy is a boar with short hair, brown, white, and tan. These come with cage one. I think this might be a start br33ding kit, please stop them from meeting such a terrible fate. Cage two comes with two brown and white piggies, male and female. Being rehomed because of allergies. Siiiiiigh.

LISTING REMOVED. Rochester, NY: two friendly boars up for an ASAP adoption. The poster is willing to sell you a cage on the cheap. Get a C&C cage, your guineas will thank you.

POST EXPIRED. Chambersburg, PA: four guinea pigs being rehomed due to allergies. They can be taken in pairs but it's ideal if they are taken as a quartet. They are friendly, healthy, and have been checked by a vet. Two of them are two and a half years old, the other two are eight months old. If you adopt all four you can received a cage and water bottles. Pictures available on request!

WITH A RESCUE! Somerset, PA: The poster has slowly been lowering the price on these pigs, and now has stooped to "if no one adopts my pigs today, I'm going to take them to the petstore." Good thing rescues don't operate the same way. Girls are seven months old and love attention. One is an abby and one is a short-hair. Horrible.

LISTING REMOVED. Philadelphia, PA: Poster rescued (or purchased? I can't tell) a texel guinea pig from a livestock auction. Actually a sow and her three babies. Placed the three babies in homes, found out mom was pregnant again (yikes). Five week old PEW boar up for adoption (not an albino, as post claims). Hair will need special grooming. I hope everything rings true here. Adoption fee is too low.

LISTING REMOVED. Syracuse, NY: repost of two girls. Sweet lovable adults (two years old) need new home. For a small adoption fee, you can provide them with one. They are cuddly and like to be held. Ideal if they can both be adopted together. Come with bedding, toys, food, vitamin C drops, etc. The one of the left looks like a patchwork guinea pig. She's so beautiful. They both are!

LISTING REMOVED. Buffalo, NY: How cute is this boy?? I love him. I think he's so adorable. I do wonder why he's in a window screen looking like it's his job to hold the house together. Someone adopt him and tell me if he has Atlas-like powers. One year old, comes with all supplies needed for a small adoption fee.

POST DELETED. Ithaca, NY: The cage these two come with is a classic example of when people think by giving height to a cage, they're providing their guinea pigs with more space. A tall cage is only as large as its base. An ideal cage will be long, wide, with maybe a loft, but the wire ramps make this completely undesirable for such groundlings as guinea pigs. Cookie and Orea are four years old, qualifying them for the senior adoption month. Cookie is a brown and white short hair, Orea is a black and white abby. They are sweet boys looking for a forever home. As seniors, they won't be quickly adopted. However, their age makes no difference to the sn@ke.

LISTING EXPIRED. Brooklyn, NY: one of those posts that makes you feel real sad inside. The poster is offering up a black and white guinea pig who is very energetic. She lives in a cage with the poster's rabbit and barbers the rabbit. The poster is rehoming her because the guinea's urine gives her hives. Can deliver. Heed the warning up top.
