I have had two guinea pigs (Zeke and Tai, adopted) for the past two years, and sunday unfortunately I had to put Zeke down because of a bladder stone. They were both very well bonded males. Me and Tai are both still trying to work through the grieving. One thing that keeps bothering me, however, is that I’m not sure I can get another guinea pig for Tai. With where my life is going Zeke and Tai were set to be my last guinea pigs for awhile until I can finish graduate school and settle down somewhere. I also couldn’t bare giving him up (and I don’t know anyone who could take him anyway) or sending him back to a shelter.
so, has anyone decided not to get their surviving guinea pigs a new mate? Did they do okay? Would I be an absolute monster for not getting him another cage mate?
