I've got a furry new little buddy!!

Hi everyone! I've been lurking here for a bit, and I have to say that this is the most informative GP site I've found on the web!

I recently took in a guinea pig from a lady advertising him on free-cycle. Her story broke my heart, she couldn't keep him anymore because her land-lord threw a fit and she had to be rid of him by Friday. If no one took him by Friday, she didn't know what she was going to do with him. I spoke with her and told her I would take him in. That Friday morning she called and told me to come pick him up.

His name is Jake, and he is approximately 3 months old. He is in perfect health, and incredibly outgoing! He has so much personality! He makes me laugh so hard! Jake is currently in a pet-store cage, and I'm working on getting all the materials to build him a nice new C&C cage! Until I get his new home built, he's getting tons and tons of floor time. After he's moved to his new home, I plan on getting him a brother. Ly&Pigs has been very helpful in me finding rescues in my area, so hopefully I'll be able to find him a friend soon.

I've only had him a little over a week now, and he has completely stolen my heart!!

This site has been so helpful! I've found myself reading way into the night, I just can't learn enough about these little critters! I also have a Cockatiel, a cat and two dogs (who have no contact with Jake). All of my animals get the best of care, and I want to make sure Jake does too! Thanks to all of you for being so helpful!!

Sorry about the novel!! Here's Jake:

I love his little piggy butt. Poor lady who had to give him up. I would have moved.

Me too, one good reason that I'll never rent unless there is no other option.

He is adorable. I am a bit biased though, as I have 3 that could be his twins
Welcome to the forum, and happy reading hehe!

Hi and welcome. Jake is really cute, that was great of you to rescue him.
You've done so well - taking on a rescue piggie, and deciding to get him a better cage and a friend - so congrats on being a great piggy parent!
