My name is Ranger!

Meet Ranger. He is a bit more shy and timid than his sibling, Sheriff. Once he is caught and picked up, he will just sit and cuddle fine. Out of the two, he hides a bit more. He is chunkier and lazier, loving to eat and hide. Ranger will happily squeal the second he hears the food bag being touched or opened. His favorite spot is the tunnel, where he likes to be mostly out of sight at first. After having him for a week, he came out of his shell a bit, but he definitely loves his tunnel and isn’t a fan of sharing it, so I bought him a second one for himself.

It’s always funny to see the two boys next to each other because Ranger is quite the chunk compared to his brother. If he thinks food is coming, he pops out and comes to the side of the cage, takes it, and goes back into the tunnel. It’s so interesting to have two guinea pigs with completely different personalities. He’s been opening up to us day by day but is an introvert by nature. They balance each other out perfectly. I was surprised by how low-maintenance they are to keep. They have so much personality.

Here’s a sweet video of Ranger and Sheriff getting some pets.    Ranger and Sheriff are bonded so must be adopted together.

Ranger was an owner surrender. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.
