Rehoming Young Male Guinea Pig

K Updated

Our Story

Beef was adopted from Petco where he kept being placed on his own for months and I decided to adopt him so my other guinea pig who didnt have a bonded pair would have someone too. He's about 6 months old and he is very sweet. He is a little shy at first but once he warms up, he is very sweet. Unsure of the type of guinea pig he is but his fur is very fluffy and has a mohawk. Loves bell peppers and carrots!

Rehoming because

I'm having to unfortunately rehome my guinea pig because my other 3 guinea pigs "rejected" him after doing 2 months of back and forth putting him on his own and then re-introducing slowly but there were no signs of improvement. He constantly hides away from them and it breaks my heart. I have a smaller cage alongside my main one but I dont have the heart to keep putting him in there on his own and I dont have the space to have another cage in my home at this time. Looking for a loving home, preferably with other guinea pigs to play with!

But I want THAT one!

Yes, that one is adorable and looks just like the one you must have for your very important reason or you will not be able to go on living. But, there are many more in your area that are just as wonderful. Perhaps they are not listed here, but they can be found. The piggy in need waiting for you near your own back yard might look a little different, but could melt your heart anyway!
