My story

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

Hi my name is Palm Tree(Palmy for short) and I am just a shy little pig. I`m 8 months old and pretty worried about new things. Because I`m a reserved girl, I like to spend time in my covered huts, or even buried in my hay. I like to be incognito with just my eyes poking out from my hay pile. That way I can listen in on conversations and watch the things going on around me-- like a true introvert! I like to think I am a super-stealth spy, but the second I get a whiff of bel pepper, I start wheeking with excitement from under my pile. Just leave the greens at a paw`s length away, and I`ll grab it when I`m ready.
I haven`t had any other pig friends before, but I may enjoy a companion!

If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed.

*Before coming to the adoption center, we ask that you have a housing unit ready, in case you end up finding an animal you’d like to adopt. Guinea pigs need a minimum 6.5 sqft wire cage (30”x36”) for 1-2 guinea pigs but preferably 10.5 sqft (30”x50”) for 2 guinea pigs and a minimum 8 sqft for 3 guinea pigs but preferably 13 sqft (30”x62”). Cages must have a solid bottom and more room is always encouraged!
