[kennethlhm]

Hi, I would like to know how many of u r from Malaysia? So that we can share info & experience together, such GP suppliers in Malaysia.

Well, I'm a future gp owner... heh... really looking forward in getting those cute cavies but no idea where to get cheap ones. Midvalley is very expensive RM 200 !!!

Yes. I heard someone bought @ RM15 at klang. Depends on location, which state.

 

[miccee]

Whar.. klang ah?... Are those abby or short hair?

 

[kennethlhm]

Abby & short hair are the common breeds in Malaysia.

 

[miccee]

so that means long hair is quite rare? I recall that you did say that some place in Malaysia sells long hair pig

You can find more variety breeds in those big pet shops but at expensive price.

I've come to Malaysia just a couple of weeks ago, so I'm still learning to get around town. Apart from pet shops, would I be able to adopt guinea pigs at humane societies or other rescue groups? I've located the website of a "small pet rescue" in selangor but their email isn't working anymore. Have you heard of it? Thx.

Mind provide the url. I have not heard of it yet.

The link is:

https://smallpet_rescue.tripod.com/smallpetrescuemalaysia/

Seems like the site hasn't been updated for at least a year or so (since I last visited).

Just out of curiousity, I do not in Malaysia. But how much is RM 200 in American money?

1 USD = RM 3.8
RM200 = 78.95 USD

 

[cinn&sprinslave]

1 USD = RM 3.8
RM200 = 78.95 USD

*gasps* that's a lot of money!!! Around where I live I can adopt a guinea pig for $5 or some times free. And if I wanted to (which I dont) I could buy one for $10 - $30

In Malaysia, GP is selling from RM20 - 280

Hi Kenneth,

Your GPs are so cute. I plan to get a GP as a pet. However, because I'm a beginner, I really do not have any idea about caring for a GP.

Before I do get one, would appreciate if you could let me know whether it's difficult to care for one and roughly what's the budget for a start-up kit plus a GP?

Thanks.

Jo

Better get a pair as they need accompanies. If you want to make a C&C cage, I think it only cost u < RM100.
