Skinnys for adoption in SC

My rescue has several skinnys for adoption. There are special requirements for adopting one of these. And there is no need to email if you haven't been a cavy owner for at least 1yr,you don't have a excellent vet reference and knowledgeable vet,and you don't wish to make your cage to my requirements. Just wanted to get that out up front so that people will know these aren't the average guinea pigs and require a special owner.
I will NOT ship. I live right outside Columbia,SC

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

Hang on we are in discussion here! I want the girl. I have already renamed her Dilly because she looks like an armadillo.

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

I take it you are talking about Elly. She is a sweetie as my daughter has spoiled her. There are several more females that aren't adoptable yet as they are on pregnancy watch.

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

She is 4 weeks old. NO she isn't on pregnancy watch as she was born here. I don't know how she would like a fleece coat,why would you want one? She doesn't have mites so she isn't scratching.

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

Well it is some of the things those of us who have never had them read about them and I want to know what is truth and what is fiction. you know that I do the best for my pigs. I have 4 of your girls already. We would want to make sure they we do everything that she would require.

It is a go on this end. Let's get on email hang on.

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

I know Sabriel in Toronto has a skinny (as I am sure we are all aware! ) Anyway, Lina has worn a t-shirt in the past (not sure about now?) to protect her from drafts or love nips from her cavy friends. She seems to appreciate it. I would think in Summer a fleece coat would be a bit heavy though!

Anyway, just wanted to point out a skinny that is dressed, not to entertain the owner, but for her own comfort!

I would love a Skinny pig, however also being in the Toronto area, I think I better look more locally when I am ready!

Best of luck to finding homes for these special pigs!
Hopefully your girls on watch will turn out to be a false alarm!

Congrats Judy! That's so exciting! Ya know, you're getting another girl, so I think you can give up Skunky. Tarzan would be in piggy heaven.

Re: Skinnys for adoption in SC

It is so nice to see at least some of these go to known and trusted adopters. Thanks, JD.
