Hello :) Yesterday I brought home to new guinea pigs from the local pet store (don't worry I checked every pet adoption place and there was none).

I dont really know any breeds or how to differentiate, I've always thought of guinea pigs as just guinea pigs :\

Where in WA are you? There are so many guinea pigs in shelters and my rescue in WA. Not to mention all the ones on Craigslist looking for homes.

I'm down in Walla Walla. I saw your Guinea pigs for adoption and if I lived up there I would bring one home. Also there was none on craigslist in Walla Walla and my parents didnt want to drive anywere. :)

I'd just like to add that pet finder and guineapigzone are both great sites to look for adoptable pigs :)

I have two adopted guinea pigs and I have no idea how old they are, is that a bad thing?

Next time try Craigslist! I see that there's not many, but there are some within driving distance to you. Maybe by then you'll have your own car and license and be able to drive yourself.

Usually if there's a pet store selling guinea pigs, there are people wanting to re-home guinea pigs.

They are very cute! They will love it when you get your bigger cage.

Next time I will for sure. My local pet shop acts kind of as a rescue it takes unwanted guinea pigs and hamsters ect. But they still do get shipments of pigs. So next time I will definitely adopt. Both of them ended up with uri but they are on medicine now and getting better. So please keep them in your thoughts.

They are adorable! Do you have a big enough cage for them? I've seen what looks like those cages at the pet store while getting dog food and they look to small. Two guinea pigs need a 2x4 grid cage. On the front page of the guineapigcages website they have measurements if you need.
