Finally found a shelter

[suzy_99]

Well, after months of looking, I have finally found a guinea pig rescue. The only problem is that it is 8 hours away and may not be operational anymore. I e-mailed the lady that runs it to see. I am not thinking about getting any new piggies soon, but it would be nice if I did not have to go to a pet store when and if I wanted another. Also, I will be able to tell people that there is a rescue in our part of the country, so people that don't mind a long drive might go there instead. I do have a question however, is it normal for a rescue to give away their piggies for free. This lady will give them way so long as they are adopted in pairs or if you can prove that you have another same-sex one at home. I automatically assumed that she would have to charge something for the expenses that she incurres.
Anyway, I really hope that it is still open.

My closest cavy shelter is hours away, too. The ones around here are all just dog/cat

Suzy what's the website that you found this rescue at?
I think you might be talking about the same one that I dhad found awhile back and I also had emailed her and have yet to get a response and that was over a month ago.

I don't remember the website (just erased my history), but her name is Brandy and it is called the Nova Scotia Guinea Pig rescue. She just e-mailed me back and told me that she is still operational, but has lost the password to her site so she has not been able to update it. By the sounds of it, I assume that she still have many guinea pigs looking for good homes. Her e-mail is [email protected] and she operates out of dartmouth I believe or Halifax.
