No, I didn't even ask to adopt. I never got that far. I was supposed to foster for them but the last time either of them emailed/called me was early January [I have emailed/called them regularly since]. Seriously, I have no clue why they haven't responded since then, the only thing I can imagine is that they got really busy but one of the rescues finds the time to update their website three or four times a week.
However, the Chapter Manager of the Upstate NY HRS has found guinea pigs for me to adopt in a shelter in Utica so I'll be going up there in a couple of weeks. She pulled some strings so that I can do a same-day adoption, she sent them photos of my cage and since I'd already been cleared for rabbit adoption by her the shelter trusts that my home is suitable for pigs to inhabit [which it is].
