Do not give her away free. Charge at least $25 for her. Somebody posing as a loving owner could easily be getting a free meal for their reptiles.

Rescues usually charge between $25-$35.

And by the way, I would LOVE to take her, but I live in CT.

Re: Guinea pig in (WI)

Well I bought her for less than that and She needs brushing so whoever wants her would have to spend alot of time with her.
Pigture of the guinea pig if anyone is interested.

Re: Guinea pig in (WI)

She is SO adorable and I do live not too far away (Duluth), but I have 4 boars.

I'll check around up here to see if anyone wants her.

She's gorgeous! Sadly, I already have two boars so there's no way I can take her. Best of luck on your search!

Re: Guinea pig in (WI)

Have you tried a rescue or shelter in your area - preferrably a no kill shelter?

It is really a shame that you have to give her up. I know this probably sounds crazy, but what if you got her a companion. Then she wouldn't be alone and your main concern would be cleaning and feeding. You would have to spend time with them, but not as much since they would have one another. As to brushing her - you cut cut her fur shorter, so you wouldn't have to brush it so often.

Good Luck and I hope things work out.

Re: Guinea pig in (WI)

How about contacting Allysse. She runs a shelter in the Twin Cities. Here is one of her latest forums:

http://cavycages.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5134

Maybe she has some ideas, or can at least post it thru her site.

Good luck and please keep us posted on what you decide. I have been trying to find someone up here to take her, but no luck yet. My son's teacher would take her for her classroom, but I could never subject a cavy to 20+ kindergarten students!
