Female Guinea Pig in NYC on Her Way to Petco

I saw this ad today on Craigslist:
Guinea Pig Cage & Acessories (also free guinea pig) - $49 (mcdonald ave & ft hamilton pkwy).

The ad states that they are going to take the pig to Petco (probably the one in Union Sq. based on location) if they cannot find a home for her. I'd hate to see this happen, but I can't take her as I have 4 boars, 2 of which are in puberty.

I emailed them and they still have the pig. I gave them the information for the Sean Casey animal rescue and hopefully they will consider them as an option.

I also wanted to post here in case anyone in NYC is looking to adopt, this might be an option.

Can you let me know if they e-mail back...
I'll finally talk to my mom about it tomorrow and since this is an emergency I'm sure my mom will come around.... I'm a couple min. away from NYC and my sis works in NYC so I'm sure she could pick the pig up after work tomorrow so PM me if they answer you!!

MissFormosa, on an unrelated note, do you know anything about the Sean Casey animal rescue? I am thinking of volunteering there and just want to know what kind of a place it is.

Hi Couchon!

I haven't been to the actual rescue facility, but I have spoken to them about their guinea pigs and cats for adoption. They were very nice and they have several pigs available. I am holding off on adopting another pig until this whole puberty thing that one of my boars is going through calms down. But at least I know somewhere close by I can go to rescue one. Before finding them, the closest shelter I could locate on PetFinder was in Jersey. I believe they are located in the Kensington area of Brooklyn. I am sure they can use help and I think it is worth a try to ask. They rescue dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, and reptiles. They also have several adoption events a year.

Here's the various ways to contact them:

MySpace page

Website

PetFinder page

Facebook page

YouTube channel
