[FONT=Georgia]I recommend just doing your homework. I did what had to add up to at
least 100 hours of research on guinea pigs themselves, their common illnesses, what's safe and not safe for their cages and bedding, fruits and veggies they need, what types of pellets and hay, etc. etc. etc.
Obviously I'm not suggesting you do 100 hours of research (although if you can, that'd be great!), you should definitely check out these links.

Guinea Lynx :: A Medical and Care Guide for Your Guinea Pig
You should totally read through the care guide: fully. It does get tedious, but great to know.
Petfinder.com: Adopt a pet and help an animal shelter rescue a puppy or kitten.
And last but not least, once you've done your research, you can type in your zipcode and find tons of rescues near you.
