Due to increased time commitments, I am no longer going to be able to update past entries of some of the larger rescues such as Have-A-Heart and NJGPHR. Once a week or so I will update the herd of the respective rescues.Merry Christmas to applicable parties! To everyone else, I hope you have an awesome day. I'm sorry everything's closed. So, since I'm taking a temporary hiatus on posting CL ads, I can feature a great bunch of Have-A-Heart Guinea Pig Rescue pigs. Here's the deal: they're a network of foster homes in DE, NJ, and PA. They're always looking for more foster homes. And below are all of their new pigs without pictures, a few pigs who have been around for a bit, and then a list of all NJ pigs.
Alvin is a cute two and a half year old boar who was given up because of allergies. Alvin is used to dogs and cats (and daredevil adventure, I would guess from his name). He is a brown agouti and white Crested American mix (ooh, crested!). Alvin, though he may not like it, is accepting donations toward his neuter.
Buttercup and Brownie are two girls who need a foster home (loving, permanent homes also being accepted). They joined the rescue on December 22nd because their owners could no longer care for them. Buttercup is a cute tri color American, and Brownie is a lovely sounding brown agouti, rust and white American. They're both about eight months old, and are used to dogs and cats.
Peppi is the adoptive mother to Piper and Pammy and they must be adopted together. Peppi came to the rescue on April Fools day, 2007, because her owner could no longer care for her. Peppi's cagemate passed away after giving birth (20% of birthing sows will not make it through), and so Peppi stepped up wonderfully as mom. Peppi is a brown agouti and white American.
The babies, born on April 20th of 2007, are both tri-color Americans. If you aren't able to adopt, why not consider donating toward their spays?
Al is a small young boar who arrived at the rescue in late December because his familly no longer could care for him. This adorable rust and white American needs a foster home. He is a year old, and used to kids, dogs, and cats. Can't adopt or foster? Consider making a donation toward his neuter.
Lovey and Cottonball are former herd-mates of Al. The girls must be adopted together. They will become available for adoption in mid-February because Lovey is on pregnancy watch. Like Al, the two girls are used to kids, dogs and cats. Lovey is a one year old cute brown agouti, rust and white American girl. Cottonball was born on December 15th, and she is a tri-color American, and I'm sure quite cute. If you've wanted to foster for a baby, here's your chance! They're looking for a foster home while they wait out the pregnancy watch. If you can't foster or adopt, consider making a donation toward their spays. Their long term health and the animal overpopulation problem will thank you!
Bandit and Big Daddy are a bonded pair, so they must be adopted together. The boys have been in the rescue since mid-April. They were dropped off at the local shelter because they were no longer wanted by their owners. But Bandit is a super hero!
The pair is used to being around kids, dogs, and cats. Bandit was three weeks old when he joined the rescue, and he is the black, blonde, and white American. Big Daddy is his poppa, and is the blonde, lemon agouti and white American. If you can't adopt them, why not considering donating toward their neuters?
LISTING REMOVED. Starlet is another piggie in need of a foster home. her bio doesn't say much, but she sounds beautiful. She is a silver agouti and white American mix--so elegant! She's used to being around dogs and cats. If you can't adopt or foster her, why not consider donating toward her spay? Then she can be paired with either boars or sows, which will greatly increase her chances of adoption.
Duke and Spongebob are two bonded boys who have the totally crappy experience of being adopted and then returned, due to no fault of their own (their owner needed surgery). Both pigs are used to cats, dogs, and kids. Duke is about six months old and is a a cute black and white (ooh) abby. Spongebob is three months old and is a cute black and white American (ooh). Both boys are begrudgingly accepting donations toward their neuters.

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.
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?
