Have you checked www.petfinder.com and www.cavyrescue.com? Don't forget, petfinder also has an "adoptables" section under classifieds. Good luck finding a piggy! =)

Looked in petfinder none, but found 2 in a Humaine Society and one from a rescue. I going to go see them all before I make my decision..

Ok I will tell you!!! Um I still haven't been to see any of them but there is a baby male who is a white american piggy.. I have been emailing the rescue about him. He is 1.5 weeks right now. The humaine society has two 3 year old piggies one is shy and one is really sweet. I would love to adopt the older piggy but I want to find the right one for my piggy and so far from emailing people about the pigs it sounds like the baby would be the best match.. But I am going to have to see all of them first.
Thanks for all your help I will definantly tell you which one I choose.
This is one male... I found at the humaine society.

I am currently deciding on 1 black and white male, one white male, and one dark brown spayed pervuvian female. The little guy from the rescue didn't work out seeing as the rescue is moving to Washington on Saturday, and they were busy all this week and I don't want to drive to Washington.

They are both cuties! If I was choosing, I think I'd go for the older pig. He sounds like he's had a hard time, as they suggested he will need time to adjust. That's just me, though. Plus, the younger ones tend to get adopted more often. Tell us what you decide, and good luck deciding! =)

I think I am going to get the older one, because he is a sweetie. And the younger one is aggressive.
But first I just checked on petfinder and there was a lady trying to find a home for her male piggy who is several years old. She said that he was sterile, and that he had been living with a female for 1 1/2 years and she never had babies, is this possible for a piggy to be sterile?

**mncavylover** · #13 08-26-04, 09:28 pm

I guess that it may be, but how does she know it's not the female? Just a thought. That's a good idea, but I don't know about the male being sterile. I hope you can decide, and good luck on that!

Ya thats what I was thinking, I was like "Hmm no babies and he was living with a female, now what happens if this so called male is a female?" =)

I would go for the older piggy too...Buddy. Both are sweet though. I would be wary of the sterile "male" and be sure he has some boy bits before taking him. Here is a pic of the girlie I am getting in just 8-9 days!

Awww she is so sweet, and cute. I just LOVE her. She is so adorable!!!!! You are very lucky!!! She is super cute!! Are you going to keep the name Ruffles or give her a different name? Is she a Texel, because she looks like she is?

**cinn&sprinslave** · #17 08-26-04, 10:30 pm

The people that are trying to find a home for the "sterile" male emailed me back. I asked them some questions, about wether he was a boy or not etc. And if the vet could assure it.

**mncavylover** · #18 08-27-04, 10:56 am

Ok, great! Keep us up to date. Awww, that texel is the cutest little thing!

You are so lucky. I hope everything goes well for both of you!
