Hey everyone!
Most of you know I lost Pedro a few weeks ago. Well, I thought I would be okay without a piggie for a bit, but it turns out I need cavies in my life.
The small animal rescue in my city currently does not have any pigs. I put an ad out on a local website and I got only one reply. Thankfully it was all I needed!!

Here's baby Penelope!!! She's under a year old, and the cutest aby I've ever seen. She is such a sweetheart and doing so well right now. She wasn't given hay or a pigloo and bedded on newsprint. The lady I got her from was so nice, though. She just wasn't educated. She's lovin' the hay, and is in a 2x3 C&C. Not as big as Pedro's cage was (he was in a 2x5) but since he passed I made a hugh memorial in my room for him and I only had space for a 2x3. It'll do for now because we're moving in the next few months so I'll be able to expand then. I am also on the look out for a friend for her.
The previous owner was asking $50 for her rehoming fee and supplies, but after talking to me and seeing how much I would love her, I got her for free. She looks to be in very good health and is starting to eat veggies. We're starting her off slowly because we don't want to shock her system. The only thing that worried me is she hasn't pooped yet :( Hopefully with a better diet that will change. She was fed Great Value pellets and had corn and seed treats :( I will change that, though! She's already sampled her new pellets and having a snooze in her cage!
I'll stop blabbing and get to the pics!!

She's adorable!! Congrats! :) After losing our little guy we have yet to go to the rescue for a friend...but maybe this weekend.
 
YAY! She is so adorable!!! :D
 
She is SO cute!!!! Congrats!
 
@SeeSpotSit After losing Pedro I really thought I wouldn't get another pig for a bit. I was really having a hard time, though, and thought that if I got another it would be a way to commemorate Pedro by giving another needy pig love and a wonderful life

@Fizzlepop40 Thanks!!!!! I love her!
 
I want her, ellisa!!! :D
 
She is so cute! I love abbies. My first 4 guinea pigs were abbies. =D Congratulations on your new guinea pig.
 
@spy9doc, when I went to get her tonight, I had no idea what she was going to look like. I didn't know her breed or anything. When I saw her I actually thought of you!! It was so funny!
 
Sooooooo cute!
 
Congrats on your new baby! She is adorable! I love her name, Penelope! She is lucky to have a new lease on life with a well educated and loving mommy as you! :)
 
Very very cute.
 
Congrats! I love her! She looks very demure. :)
 
What a pretty girl, I love her differently colored ears. I had a Penny but she was an American, not an abby.
 
Such a cutie!!!
 
Thanks everyone! She is such a sweetheart! She's so happy in her new cage with all her new things! I'm so proud of her for not being too scared! She's pooping now too! She likes to back up into a corner to bathroom so I'm going to get a litter pan and hopefully she'll use it most of the time!
 
SO CUTE! shes in great care!
 
AW! She's adorable!
 
AWHHH!! I absolutely love when they have patchy colored ears! I don't know why hehe. My one pig has a brown spot on her ear and is constantly flicking her ear. I call it her little cow ear :p

Congrats on the piggy! She is beautiful and I too Love abby's!
 
What a little sweetheart! I love her ears, they are downright adorable!
 
Thanks so much, everyone!! She was such a good girl through the night. ❤️

Holy cow, looking back at my first post in this thread, I just noticed all the spelling and grammatical errors I made! I was too excited to edit my post! Sorry! I'm really not that silly! :eek:
