How this pet arrived:
I was found exploring outside and brought in by a community member on 23 September, 2025.
Why this pet is the one for you:
Say hello to Winston! Guinea pigs are small, silly furry potato-like creatures that live on a diet of grass and vegetables. Guinea pigs are herd animals, meaning they usually live in large groups! At home, it is best for a guinea pig to have another guinea pig friend of the same sex. They can share an enclosure that is no less than 47"x24"- but more space is always better. Because they prey animals, most guinea pigs may be nervous about being picked up. But once a guinea pig builds a relationship with their people, they enjoy snuggling in their adopter's laps for pets! TIP: the way to a guinea pigs heart is through their stomach with treats (did someone say cilantro?!)! They can be big talkers and will express how they are feeling with different sounds - be sure to listen, to get an idea of what they are telling you!
