Hey there, I'm Andie and I'm excited to come home with you! Guinea pigs like me make adorable sounds like whistling, purring, and squealing, and we love to chatter away! We make great pets as we are usually calm and easy to care for. I would love an enriched home life with a variety of tunnels, toys, and perhaps another piggie friend! Since we're social animals, it's important for us to have a companion of the same sex to prevent any unplanned litters. My diet mainly consists of pellets along with timothy hay and a daily leafy green salad. Fun fact: like humans, guinea pigs can't store or produce vitamin C in our bodies, so I'll need a daily supplement to stay healthy. Vitamin C tablets are the easiest way to ensure I get enough! The adoptions staff are ready to answer any questions you have and help you be the best guinea pig parent ever! They can tell you all about my dietary needs, housing (an enclosure that's at least 5ft by 2ft by 2ft please!), and any other things I may need. So come down the Edmonton Humane Society to meet me, no appointment necessary! I can't wait to go home with you! Primary Color: Tan Secondary Color: White Weight: 0.94

Before you Adopt
Pet adoption is a big commitment. We encourage you to spend considerable time thinking about and researching the type of pet most suitable to your family. Most breeds have their own characteristic traits and specific needs which need to be considered. Remember that some animals have lifespans of 20 years or more.
Prospective adopters will meet the following requirements:
- You must be at least 18 years old.
- You must have two pieces of identification, with at least one showing your current address and a picture.
- ALL FAMILY MEMBERS, sometimes including family pets, must be present during the adoption process.
- If you already have a dog and are considering adopting another one, you MUST be prepared to bring your current family dog to the interview. This will help you to determine if all family members and existing pets will get along with the new pet.
- If you live in rental accommodations, please confirm that your landlord allows the type of pet you are considering, and that you have paid your pet deposit before you adopt. There are NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES if the building owner does not accept the animal. In addition, you will have to pay all regular surrender fees if you need to return the animal to the Edmonton Humane Society.
If you are looking to adopt a dog or puppy please note:
Some of the dogs on our web site have recommendations on the age of younger family members. These restrictions are placed out of the concern of the dogs as well as in consideration of families.
Remember that new animals arrive every day. You may have to return to the shelter a number of times before you find a good match. It is better to wait and come back again than it is to take home an animal who does not suit your lifestyle
