Star Two Aby Males Needing Forever Homes:Houston,Tx

Hello Everyone. A friend of mine, who also owns a rescue, is trying to place 2 male guinea pigs (see pics below); The boys are bonded with one another, which is perfect because guinea pigs do best 2 or more. I would take them, but I can't. I actually have the sister of the red/white male that is part of the duo up for adoption. If you are interested in giving these piggies a loving forever-home, please e-mail my friend, Lisa, at hbcw@peoplepc.com

Awwww!

Oh man they are too close. I am sooooooo tempted. I am just kinda scared to add them to my boys and I don't want 2 cages. What to do, what to do?

How old are they? Details, please.

I know that is the problem. **sigh** The brown/white one looks so much like my Digger did and that other one just looks soooooo fluffy. I am afraid I may have finally run across some I can't resist.

Re: Two Aby Males Needing Forever Homes:Houston,Tx

Hi Everyone! I know, they are adorable. I really would have loved to take them, but I can't *sigh*

My friend, Lisa, really wants the piggies to get a good home. That is why she has had them for as long as she had, because she specifically wants someone who can provide the proper care for them (and love!)

I am not exactly sure how old they are, you'd have to ask Lisa. The red/white boy was actually born after my Daisy, so while they are brother/sister, Daisy is older. Lisa rescued two piggies who were supposed to be of the same sex, and it turned out they were of opposite sexes. Hence, how I got my two girls (Daisy & Delilah, the daughters of these two piggies); Lisa didn't seperate the pigs soon enough because just a while later, the female was pregnant again. Lisa was beside herself. She has had some inquiries on the piggies, but nobody she feels comfortable with. She wanted me to take them because of the good home I have given the girls, but as much as I wish I could, it is completely not feasable.

Tx_2_Pigs - You could just make a larger cage and seperate it if needbe. If space is a problem there are many ways to work around that. When I got the girls, I wasn't sure what I was going to do, because I had to seperate my boys, but I actually finally rigged up three whole cages, that only took up the space of two cages

I really want these pigs to get a good home as well, there are way too many people out there who are not able or willing to take proper care of piggies.

I don't have any more pigtures - but I am sure Lisa does. Here is her email addy again hbcw@peoplepc.com

Have a good day everyone !!

HeHe.... So, have you heard anything yet? New additions to the family?

The sister of the red/white male you are getting (if you get him) is the one on my profile pic. Oh, and wickedrodent has the brother of my Delilah (who is also from the same lady)

Re: Two Aby Males Needing Forever Homes:Houston,Tx

Hi ! I sent you a reply to your private messege, and I also forwarded your private messege onto Lisa. I got an email from her saying they were going to Tx Rustler's GP rescue - so I don't know if she didn't get your msg or what ? She is normally pretty good at emailing back, so as soon as I hear something I will let you know (and I forwarded your number onto her as well)

Good luck hon !! I would love to see them go to a for-sure good forever home
