Penelope is an adorable Guinea pig who loves romaine lettuce and lots of hay and ear scratches once she is used to you. As with all piggies she's very skiddish but if you give her some time to warm up she will happily cuddle under a blanket in your lap and let you scratch her ears. Hand fed treats are also a favorite of hers. She is currently living with two other piggies and seems to love company but this also took time and if housing with other piggies slow intros will be best. She also seems like she would do well as an only pig if living in the main room of the house and getting lots of attention and having lots of toys and hiding spots. She's very vocal when she wants something and makes the cutest sounds! Penelope will make a great addition to household who has the ability to love her like she deserves!
