My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Name, type of animal: Pumbaa, Guinea Pig

Likes: Pumbaa, lots of snacks, hay and different hides and chews

Dislikes: Broccoli, loud noises, unfamiliar people and being handled forcefully

What would be the ideal home? A home that has patience and will give the time he needs to settle in/to work with him

Good with other pets? Likely not (besides Pumbaa - his guinea pig brother)

Good with children? Probably older children because of his skittishness

Temperament: Chatty, quirky and shy, loves to follow his brother

How long will it take to settle into a new environment? 4 plus weeks

What kind of housing are they in? X-pen

Favourite types of fruits/veggies? Kale, lettuce, cabbage, carrots, watermelon, bell peppers, basil, parsley and more

Any special needs or traits an adopter should know? He is very skittish towards the beginning but will warm up to you with time. Timon is bonded to Pumbaa and they need to go to a home together!

If you think Pumbaa & Timon are the ones for you - fill out an application today!
