My story

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

Our adoption process can be found on our website here: www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/process

Estimated birth date: 6/1/22

Personality: Chatty, Cuddly, Curious, Enjoys being held, Friendly toward humans, Inquisitive, Playful, Smart, Sweet

Favorite treats: Carrots

Current Diet: Oxbow Essentials Adult Guinea Pig Food, Fruit, Veggies, Leafy Greens, Western Timothy Hay, Oxbow Vitamin C and Digestive Support Supplements

Favorite toys and activities: Wood chews, apple sticks. Loves free roam time and talking to his neighbor piggie.

Potty trained: No

This animal’s daily routine: Veggies in the morning, afternoon treats, veggies at dinner time and fresh hay, pellets and supplements at bed time.

BFF (Does this animal have or need a friend of the same species in their home?): No, unsure if he is bondable

Other species this pet has been exposed to and reaction: Cat, Dog - Did not seem to care. Bonding was previously attempted with another guinea pig but the other guinea pig was overly dominant.

Has this animal been exposed to children? What was their reaction? Yes - he was great with school-age children

Health concerns: Edwin has had an eye surgically removed before entering our care for an unknown reason.

Behavioral concerns: None

Edwin came to MNPPR as a transfer from another rescue.

Other Notes: He is a one-eyed fella who takes some time to get used to his environment and people, but once he does he is amazing!

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 Petsmart - 299 12th St SW, Forest Lake, MN 55025 for meet & greets, & adoptions.

Fee: Edwin has an adoption fee of $35

We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.

Edwin's care while in rescue has not yet been sponsored.
