Try going to www.petfinder.com and type in your zip code, all kinds of piggers will come up near you.

Are you getting rid of your piggy? I live in Michigan, and you're very right that there aren't many around here. I found one that looks really good but it's in Lansing and all the other rescues are around Detroit. At least the big ones. I was just looking last night because I need to get my Squeeks a friend, but I can't afford the $15 at adopt right now. It was a suprise that I got her and I wouldn't give her up for the world, but I did only get her.

Do a search at www.petfinder.com, and also look at the adoptables section of their classifieds. Look at (broken link removed) classifieds, too. There is also a list of rescues there, but you can do a google search for a humane society near you. Good luck! =)

Call local vet offices, talk to your local shelter, look in the paper, ask in friendly pet stores, look on bulletin boards at stores...you may be surprised.

Hello. I know a place in MI who sells pet supplies and rehomes abandoned piggies if you are interested. Recently a breeder got sick and his wife dumped 50 on this pet store - most females pregnant. They have pigs currently available. I wouldn't however adopt until you have money saved. I know you said you don't have the 15 for a piggie - and it sounds like you are waiting for funds until so (I hope) I advise anyone who has or is thinking of adopting to have a spare account of emergency vet money. This money should be separate then the allocated money aside each week for fresh hay, pellets and veggies, vit c etc.
Warmest Regards
di

I have a girl guinea pig that needs a friend and I am in Michigan. However, I wanted to give her to someone rather than get a friend for her. Were you interested in giving up your guinea pig or of getting another guinea pig?

I would be interested in adopting a female guinea pig if you still have any left.

Hello. I am in Taylor Michigan and I adopted my 2 pigs from the downriver guinea pig haven. You can find them on petfinder. They are very nice. Currently they have lots of pigs.

That is odd. I get a response with any questions I have. Maybe try one more time?
