LISTING REMOVED Pittsburgh, PA: Absolutely beautiful white crested guinea pig with possible mismarked himi markings available for adoption, sex and age not specified. Comes with a cage, water bottle, and "everything you need to get started." I bet a bunch of stuff you need to get started mistreating your pet and not a lot of the stuff that is actually necessary for proper guinea pig care. Research on a site like GuineaLynx for what is actually proper Guinea Pig treatment.
Oh and Go Steelers!

Piggie Lovers Inc. Guinea Pig Rescue, PA: Lots o' pigs! This rescue is based in Latrobe, PA. They have a number of adoptions taking place this week, so their herd will have changed possibly even by the time I press post! If you fall in love with one of their piggies, don't hesitate to contact them and check on his or her status. This rescue is run by some devoted ladies (who could also teach graphic design--check out their website, it's Keen) who also sell C&C cages and their own hay.
Now, as for their herd, I'm going to list it in its entirety here, and then feature two of the piggies not yet mentioned on this blog below. Readers with full houses beware!
ADOPTED! Edgar & Telouis * ADOPTED! Hamlet & Rothbart * ADOPTED! Hercules & Zeus * ADOPTED! Chester & Milton * ADOPTED! Madame Mim * ADOPTED! Eleanor * ADOPTED! Cronus * ADOPTED! Hades * ADOPTED!

Templeton & Ludo * Rex * Ash * Roxy & Ivy * ADOPTED! Dumbledore *
Roxy and Ivy have awesome names, for starters. They sound like they're in a girl band. They're mother and daughter. Roxy is mom and on the right (1y9m--2y) and Ivy is the daughter, born January 1st of 2007. Ivy inherited Roxy's chubby good looks, and they are both sweethearts. Roxy is a laid back girl who is all for cuddling, and will even give you kisses if she likes you. Ivy is a bit skittish at first, but calms down for cuddling once in the lap. They love hiding, but, like most guineas, veggie time puts a stop to that!

BR33DER LINK REMOVED: Five pigs need rehoming, two females and three males. Being rehomed due to allergies. One pig has just one eye. Sounds like an odd situation, they're being bottle-fed?

LISTING REMOVED. Suffolk County, NY: Brown and white boar less than a year old being rehomed. Cause--children lost interest, the guinea pig is described as "very good but needs to go to a home where he will get the attention he needs."
LISTING REMOVED. Westchester, NY: One year old boar being rehomed due to conflict between to fighting boars. Hopefully this isn't a matter of just a too small cage. Boar is described as "docile and very cute."
LISTING REMOVED Rochester, NY: Two male guinea pigs that need to be rehomed due to moving. Atlas and Bear are both approximately one and a half years old and "extremely friendly." They are bonded and so must be adopted as a pair. They are adorable!
LISTING REMOVED. Manhattan, NY: Very handsome and striking guinea pig named Ank, poster describes him as "nice" and "friendly." He is recovering well from two abscess surgeries and will soon be off antibiotics. Being rehomed due to relocation. Doesn't sound like the best time for it. Poor boy!
