Angry I cannot believe this!

Abandoned Guinea Pigs in box on UWS

I wonder if it has anything to do with the movie or the economy. Either way, this is outrageous.

Re: I cannot believe this!

I really don't know if it has anything to do with the movie but I am sure the economy has something to do with it. Since posting pictures of my cage and a friendly warning on my local craigslist I have recieved several e-mails from people wanting me to take in thier guineas. I just cannot do another cage to take the boys and the one girl I would consider lived too far away (2 hours) I find it very sad.

Re: I cannot believe this!

Instead of reposting ads like this here, it seems it would be more effective to reply to the OP with an answer to the question she's asking (is there a local rescue?) or some basic info on guinea pigs.

Because I live on the other side of the country, I haven't the slightest idea where any rescue organizations are in her area, but I did send her some links to this site and a couple others so that she'll at least have the basics on caring for them for the time she has them.

Re: I cannot believe this!

That was actually a big reason for posting the link here. Even though I live in the area, I could only find a guinea pig rescue two hours away. I am new to the area, so I was hoping someone could come along that would have some suggestions for the lady.

Re: I cannot believe this!

I just emailed her with the name of the rescue and their direct email. I hope that this helps.

I've had experience with her and their rescue, and she's an amazing person. The pigs are well-off, they'd do great there.
