Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Dice is an eight-month-old black and white male smooth coat guinea pig looking for a loving guardian.
While he doesn’t currently live in the same cage as another guinea pig, he certainly enjoys being next to the other pigs. The family that acquired him didn’t realize he was male and put him in with their female. So, he fathered a litter of three. And, then the family gave all five to Friends of Petraits Rescue.
He is now neutered, so he has the chance to live with male or female guinea pigs now!
Guinea pigs eat timothy and orchard hays, pellets, and a lot of salad every day. Guinea pigs require vitamin C every day of their lives which they can get from their pellets, a one-inch square of red bell pepper and dark leafy greens like kale and spinach.

To meet and possibly adopt this handsome pig, please fill out the adoption application at https://friendsofpetraits.com/guinea-pig-adoption-application/ and follow up with an e-mail to friendsofpetraits@gmail.com
He is currently being fostered in the Andersonville neighborhood of Chicago.
He would love a home with people who will handle him daily, keep him well fed, and keep his habitat nice and clean.
His adoption fee of $60 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. For an additional $75, we’ll include a package of absolutely everything you need to care for him including a cage, litter, pellets, hay, hidey hut and water bottle.
