Today I came in to work and found that a cute orange and white one year old boar had been surrendered by his owners to my pet store. He looks big, but under his fluffy fur he's quite bony, and his feet are in poor shape from lack of nail trimming. I trimmed his nails as best as I can, but I don't know if his toes will go back to normal. They're a bit crooked from having his nails so long.
His owners gave us his cage and accessories, but I was told that they were so dirty that my manager just threw them out.
I like him a lot, but I can't adopt him myself. If anybody is looking for a male pig in north western Washington, he'll be available in about three days. I want to make sure he goes to a home with a big enough cage where he can get some special attention so he can get healthy, but my coworkers aren't as knowledgeable about guinea pig care and cage sizes, despite how much I talk about it at work.
