Other notes: Jedrick is a little ham and loves to talk to you. When he sees you, he will flop down next to you on the couch and watch TV.
These boys are still a bit shy but very cute, funny, and sweet. Jedrick is grateful to be living the good life and getting spoiled after a rough start
Jedrick came from a large guinea pig surrendered to Saint Paul Animal Control and then transferred to MNPPR for medical treatment.
Due to our rescue being foster-based, not all foster homes are located in Saint Paul, MN. This animal's foster parent prefers to meet at the Roseville PetSmart - 2480 Fairview Ave N, Roseville, MN 55113 for meet & greets, & adoptions.
Mallon & Jedrick have a combined adoption fee of $60
We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.
Jedrick's care while in rescue has not yet been sponsored. If you would like to donate to provide veterinary care, food, bedding, and enrichment for Jedrick or other pocket pets in the care of MNPPR, please visit https://www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/sponsor-a-pocket-pet for more information.
