Many people don't seem to know that guinea pigs NEED hay.  Timothy hay helps their digestive system and is the best way to help keep their molars ground down and healthy.  Your healthy cavy shouldn't need additional Vitamin C supplements IF your cavy is getting proper fresh greens and some fruits and high quality, fresh guinea pig pellets on a daily basis.  Guinea pigs like and need a variety of fresh vegetables and some fruits, just like we do. Make sure you focus on high-quality greens and veggies which are high in vitamin C and low in calcium.
 IndyCLAW Rescue is founded on the premise of 'Creating Life-long Animal Welfare'. We do have an adoption contract and do home visits to ensure that this pet will be achieving a life-long home. Since a home visit is part of the process, we limit our adoption area to within a one hour drive from Indianapolis.  There is also an adoption fee, which only partially reimburses our expenses in preparing your new pet.  We do not ship our adoptable pets nor do we adopt to breeders or resellers.
