My story

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

How this pet arrived:
Snickers was brought in by his previous owner on October 16, 2024.

Why this pet is the one for you:
Meet Snickers! Snickers is a young guinea pig who can be timid at first and is still getting used to human companionship. We know that once he adjusts, he'll blossom into a wonderful guinea pig! Snickers came in with Louie #929164 and they will need to be adopted together or as a friend for your single male guinea pig! Male guinea pigs need large enclosures with a lot of ground space (8+ square feet for both) to run around and stay healthy. An easy and inexpensive way to give your guinea pig a DIY palace is called a C&C fleece lined cage (Google it!). They will need unlimited timothy hay to munch on, extra space to run around in, and toys to keep them active and enriched! Healthy greens, veggies, and pellets are also an essential part of their diet, as well as a daily dose of vitamin C! If you'd like to learn more about adding these cuties to your family, come in and ask about them today! Don't forget to bring a secure carrier for safe transport home!
