I have to say as a pet owner who is very active in the community and takes pride in the care they give their animals like so many others here, that I really enjoy caring for animals. That passion and interest in smaller pets such as rodents and reptiles has made me discover I had a passion for veterinary medicine. Starting pre vet online classes soon hopefully!
Besides the point. I really want another piggy. One I have particularly fallen for. His name is blaze and he is all white and has beautiful pink eyes, but a softer pale pink. When I was looking to adopt my two girls I saw him and have found out the rescue has had a hard time getting him adopted and has had him since 2013! The little guy is coming up on 6 years and as far as I know in good health.
I had an idea to make a good size but not too big as he is a senior, sized cage to put beside my current DIY old loft bed with the legs cut down cage™. Then he could live out the time he has left in a nice cozy home and knowing me I would probably spoil him with soft fleecys as I call them.
One thing I want opinions on though is I was planning to have the guy alone. Although I do have a reason. I would hate to put another piggy through the loss of another. Then the remaining one would be alone and the cycle starts all over.
That's pretty much it. Its so sad when shelters have a lot of old guineas needing homes to live happily with the time they do have. And this shelter is no kill so they have a few. I feel like the old stereo typical cat lady who spends her time and most of her house to give older cats homes. I would just feel really happy knowing I'm helping another pig who hasn't had consistency in a long time.
Let me know your thoughts, thanks so much guys!

I once adopted a very old dog who had cancer and I only had her for a year and a half but, she was the sweetest dog ever, she was so appreciative to have a home, I also adopted a very old hamster and he was also the sweetest. I personally find that older pets are happy to have a forever home and end up being the sweetest pets ever! good luck!
