Please don't buy another pig from a pet store. If there are pet stores in your area selling guinea pigs, there are also guinea pigs who need homes. Check Craigslist or Kijiji, but watch out for breeders.
Where are you? (city/state, not actual address) We may be able to help you find a pig.
Pet store pigs are bred and raised in horrible conditions. The sows are kept continually pregnant until they're too told to breed, and then they're killed. Each subsequent litter of pups is less healthy than the previous one, and pet store pigs are often sick, missexed, and the baby sows are pregnant. No effort is made to keep them from inbreeding, so they're more susceptible to the painful, sometimes fatal, genetic diseases that afflict guinea pigs. When you buy a pig, you participate in that horrible chain, because the pet store just orders another to replace the one you bought. So the mills keep rolling, and guinea pigs keep suffering and dying.
