My story

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

My current foster wrirtes:
Piglet (FKA Carmelo) is an extremely gentle and calm guinea pig. He loves his hay and fresh lettuce. A little on the shy side, compared to his companion Poe (ID # 203105), Piglet is the more docile of the pair and will always be the second one to get any special treats. Piglet felt right at home almost instantly, exploring his enclosure and enrichment toys. He prefers being in his hideout or in a corner when resting, but isn't afraid to eat out in the open and even warms up to being held. He seems very comfortable being held close to your chest and being stroked. Piglet also makes the most adorable wheeks! He would make a darling pet for a loving home with or without children.

My previous foster writes:
Carmelo: Hi! I'm Caramelo. I'm a bit chunky and love to eat hay and vegetables. Romaine is my favorite. I love to take naps and relax around the house. I may seem shy, but I just need some time to warm up. I don't always love being handled but I will enjoy pets & hand feeding. I'm generally calm but can be sassy when I want something
