Looking for Female/Neutered Male in South Louisiana Area

lilouisianagal · Oct 16, 2004

I'm looking for a female or neutered male to keep my lil girl company. No bullies please. Would consider taking a pair. Would have plenty of room(2 by 4 plus upper section) and lots of love!

on Petfinder.com there is an adoption center in New Orleans... if you go there and look under your zip you should be able to find some

There are Guinea pigs available through the Louisiana SPCA. I believe they are in the adoption center at Jefferson Feed in Kenner (outside New Olreans). Here are more details...

Try (broken link removed) .com, look for classifieds and rescues.
Look on petfinder classifieds and adoptables.
Look on google for a shelter or rescue near you.

Good luck!

Also, for further reference, make sure you have another cage ready, etc. before you get another pig. Read www.cavyspirit.com/sociallife.htm and scroll down for more information.

I'm glad you're getting her a buddy!

I've tried all the websites and I've called and emailed that shelter (they have three piggies listed) but they haven't contacted me back (i emailed two days ago, phoned one day ago). I think I may just make the trek tomorrow anyway (1 and 1/2 hours each way ugh!) but I will be really sad if I drive and no piggies are there.

Why not call Jefferson Feed directly? Be certain you state you are interested in Pigs available for adoption through he SPCA as they also sell cavies of their own at times. The number to Jeff Feed is 504-733-8572.

If you really wanted I could go down to the Japonica St SPCA and look for the pigs in person. I live relativly close to the shelter. I can post back to you whether or not they are there.

You can also try calling June Booth. She does rabbit rescue in the area but she may know of some cavies that need homes. Call June at 985-649-8990

I was going to call each of those today (if not go over) but someone in the Baton Rouge area saw my post on guinealinx.com and said that her friend had a lone piggy looking for a home. He had been the pet of some kids for the past year, but they got a puppy...and you can guess what happened to their interests. He has been living alone in a glass fish tank. They are willing to neuter him if I will take him. He even already has a Disney name: Nemo. I really hope that this works out.

CritterLuver419 · Oct 22, 2004

yay! im glad you found something! hope it works it out!

loves2travel · Oct 22, 2004

oh, i feel so bad for nemo! abandoned when the puppy came home.........

*tear*

i hope everything works out for you!

mncavylover · Oct 23, 2004

That's awful!... but more common than you'd think.

cinn&sprinslave · Oct 24, 2004

Aww how sad. I personally like guinea pigs better than any other animal. But not everyone is like me...

AngelsCavies · Oct 24, 2004

Awwwww thats so sad for Nemo. If I brought home a puppy I would make sure that all of my pets get attention and they all do here at our home.

lilouisianagal · Oct 24, 2004

Now they're not sure if they want to give him up. Gr...

mncavylover · Oct 24, 2004

Oh my goodness! That's awful. He's neglected, but they're "not sure"? Sheesh people, either care for the pig or don't.

lilouisianagal · Oct 25, 2004

And now...a definite no.

lilouisianagal · Oct 25, 2004

I guess I will call New Orleans SPCA/Jefferson Feed tomorrow morning. I hate phones...ugh. And if that doesn't work out then Texas Rustlers maybe. 8 hr drive there though.

I called over to Jefferson Feed. The lady said that they had one piggie left, but she didn't know the sex of it. Do you know how to sex piggies?

Hmph! Poor little Nemo.

As for sexing piggies, you could always print off Cavy Spirit's sexing page:

Good luck on your piggie search.

lilouisianagal · Oct 26, 2004

Sorry I was asking Elly.

mncavylover · Oct 26, 2004

Sorry, but... who is Elly?
