Hello Everyone!! I have two piggies, Rodney and Red. Rodney is my first and older guy. We rescued him from people that didn't take proper care of him. He was living in a house by himself, on the cold floor, with nothing in his cage but a bowl of food that was spilled all over the floor. His cage was dirty and smelly, and so was he. When we got him, I knew nothing about guinea pigs but I knew he deserved better than this. So we took him home and cleaned him up. I then researched all I could on guinea pigs, so i could properly take care of him. We built a C&C cage for him that is huge! And we now got him a little friend, named Red. Because there is no other place around here to get piggies, no rescues or nothing, I live in a small, rural area, I did get him from a pet store, but I look at it as I rescued him from the store. At least he came to someone who will spoil him. And he has been very healthy since we got him. But I don't condone pet stores what-so-ever! I looked everywhere around here for another option, but I could not find any guinea pigs to rescue or buy. So thats us in a nutshell!
