PA-Humane Society of Harrisburg Area-East Shore-Two Pigs

Humane Society of Harrisburg Area-East Shore; Harrisburg, PA: GiGi and Unsexed Pig!

GiGi is an adorable small adult female guinea pig. Look at that gorgeous crest! She wants a home so badly, you can see it in her eyes.



This beautiful unsexed pig is just such a winner. She or he is so cute! Here's a good link for determining his or her sex: Boy or Girl?. This piggy should never be br3d, (though AAGP does not endorse the intentional br33ding of any guinea pig) because of the roaning in its fur, which means he or she could produce a lethal pig.

* 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. *

York, PA: Two six month old girls being rehomed due to owner having a baby. Come with cage, bedding, food, toys. Owner willing to transport to Southern PA, Northern MD and within reason.


Hatboro (Philadelphia), PA: Two 1.5 y.o sisters being rehomed due to children losing interest. Calico colored, one is an abby, the other has "silky short hair." Though they are a bit skittish due to not being held much, they do not bite. They are "very sweet" when they are held.


LISTING REMOVED Pittsburgh (South Hills), PA: Two female guinea pigs being rehomed due to move. Come with cage, house, water bottle, food bowl, wooden chew toys, food (pellets and alfalfa) and any left over bedding. "Very sweet and vocal," enjoy floor time. Very bonded, must be adopted together.


Elizabeth (Pittsburgh), PA: 8 month old female shorthair guinea pig being rehomed due to lack of attention. Comes with DANGEROUS CAGE-wire floored cages cause bumblefoot, water bottle, food, bedding, other accessories. Also vitamin drops (don't put these in the water, that's a guinea pig myth-they're not water soluble so they stop working after about five minutes and then the water just tastes bad. Reduced water consumption leads to a host of other problems. And what will a non-Cavy Savvy Vet often diagnose and then prescribe? Scurvy, and vitamin C drops!


Philadelphia, PA: Bonded males Peanut and Cocoa being rehomed due to owner transitioning to college.

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.).

Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society; Philadelphia, PA: Penny and/or Two girls, not bonded!

Girl One is a black and rust abby, Girl Two is a Black/White/Orange shorthair. So pretty! They are "both beautiful and healthy piggies, very friendly and they deserve better than to be stuck at the shelter. "


I'm not sure if Penny is one of these girls, but look how cute! She's a really adorable small young girl. And that's the flash reflecting on her eyes--she's not like Cyclops from the X-Men. OH but wouldn't that be neat?!



PAWS also has a recent post up with volunteer opportunities! In addition to the basics like walking dogs, PAWS needs people to help volunteer with the OVERFLOWING small animal room. There are tons of impulse Easter bunnies who wound up at the shelter. If you're interested in helping contact them through the link.
