I LOVE MY PIGS I hope you will at least decide to message me on here so that we can at least talk about this if you don't want anyone else seeing what you are talking about. I will not judge you, I will try not to farther lecture you about pigs. From the way you sound I'm guessing that I am also the same or close to you in age, so I can relate to you. As I stated above I am just in this for the health, well being, and happiness of these pigs, and would love to give them a good home, and also take the burden off your unsuspecting cousin. Please consider.

I'm sorry.
You are a cold hearted owner.
If you think that r eturning the guinea pigs is the best for THEM then you shouldn't even have them (or any animals). You took on a responsibility when you purchased them. YOU need to take them to a good vet. If YOU cannot AFFORD vet bills then you should NOT have considering purchasing them. And by all means I understand when times are hard on the wallet. BUT there are such companies like Care Credit. Whom pay for vet bills and medical needs to which you can pay off in your own time AND it helps you build credit.
I am someone who lives paycheck to paycheck. Do you see me giving up my animals because they are sick or because Petco's crappy vet did not cure my animals? NO. "I actually take my animals to a very well known and experienced vet. Why? because I love them and I want the best for them.

Oh gawd, you made me so upset. Reading you are going to give these adorable pigs up because Petco crappy vet didn't cure them just breaks my heart and utterly....arg!

Lemme put it like this:
If they were human children. Just humor me here. IF these guinea pigs were human children.....what would you do?

There was absolutely NO POINT in this post. She asked for advice, and has ignored every piece of advice and refused every offer of assistance. Knowing how this forum is, and how people here feel, she still posted this. That is called a TROLL. She just posted this to start an argument, with NO INTENTION of changing her mind.

(broken link removed) - if it's a money issue so she has the funds to "rescue" 2 more pigs from a shelter, please PM me, I'll chip in so you can get the pigs and vet care.

First of all if you didnt read any replies I have changed my mind. I am giving them to my cousin and i will educate her and make her a 2x5 c&c and get her all started so those two pigs are in good hands and then i will adopt two pigs from the rescue and take care of them so that makes four pigs loved and in good homes.

So, I don't think you are going to change who you are and your perspective on things overnight. So when it comes to scolding you, I'm just exhausted. It resolves nothing.

Petlovr and PigPandemonium are going to work with you to make sure the piggies go to someone who is prepared and knows a lot of pigs. They're also going to do it in a way that will be less hassle for you. I'm sure others that are in your area and also in this site would be eager to help you get the pigs to PigPandemonium. Please let them help you by taking them off your hands and giving them the best chance at an amazing life.

I think the main thing that people aren't understanding is why you do not want to keep the two you already have. That's what is confusing me. Besides being sick, which is fixable if you're willing to put the money and effort into it, what is wrong with them to make you no longer want them?
