Hi Guys,
I couldn't believe today when I saw that someone has handed in a HEAP of longhair peruvians to our local rspca! Filthy peruvians to by the looks with matts and staining and all look underweight and stragly! They definitely would be pedigree no doubt about it it's just so careless to just offload excess stock or an entire stud onto the rspca like this person has without trying to find homes first ( whether the person was a backyard breeder or a registered breeder ) that's what frustrates me more than anything...as if the rspca don't have enough on their hands they are such a dumping ground for lazy ppl that don't put in the effort themselves first with finding their animals good new homes if they cannot keep them themselves.--it's a prime example of how sow many breeders simply DON'T CARE where their excess " stock " as they're called, end up...especially longhair breeds!
I just can't believe the state of some of these longhairs I know I've seen worse but yeah this is a prime example of why so many people should not buy longhair guinea pigs unless they have done research on them and are willing to care for their continuously growing coat.
I've contacted the rspca offering help to bath them and clean them up but it seems they're right onto them apparently the vet is bathing them, mite treating them and giving them all a nice coat clipping so it's good to see theyre finally getting some decent care. I just hope they find decent new homes!
Anyhow here's the link.... I really have to refrain from adopting any...I don't want to but I WILL REFRAIN:sorry: .
