Sylvester & Arnold Guinea Pig Guinea Pig Wolcott, IN

We have a pair of young male guinea pigs looking for their forever home. Their names are Sylvester and Arnold! These boys came to the rescue not that long ago, and now they are now ready to find their own home.

Sylvester is the black and cream American crested guinea pig, and Arnold is the tricolor (white, black, and red) American-mix guinea pig. We are told they were four months old when we got them in, and we estimate their date of birth as 4/2019. Super great age to bring them home!

These boys are sweet guinea pigs. Sylvester is the more outgoing of the two, and he is less shy. He will come right up to the front of the cage to check out what is going on, and see what you’re doing. Arnold is the more shy of the two, and he is more the type to hang out in the igloo and hang out in the shadows, rather than venture out. If you give him enough time, he will, but he’s not the go-getter out of the pair. We’re working on handling the two of them to help them become more familiar with humans and such. They’re your typical guinea pigs in that they do move away from you when you go to pick them up, but once you’re holding them they do settle down. They loves to hide in their igloo, but they come out for food, water, and of course, veggies and hay! They loves their food, hay, veggies, greens… they’re easy to please boys! We’re sure that the more time you spend with them, the more attention you give them, and the more snacks you give them, we know you’re sure to win them over and make them even more loveable and outgoing. They’re super sweet and they do well with being handled and petted. They will both sit nicely in your arms when you’re petting them. They do well with having their nails trimmed. Neither guinea pig has ever bitten.

These boys are living together and they can only be adopted out as a pair. Please do not email if you are only wanting to adopt one of them – on the other hand, check out our other listings, or ask us about other available guinea pigs! We do have some singles available!

These guinea pigs will come with some food to start you out with (4 pounds of guinea pig pellets) and a printed out version of our guinea pig care packet. We also have additional supplies for sale, such as cages, food, food bowls, water bottles, hidey houses, and more.

Do you need a cage? We have multiple cages for sale, everything from smaller guinea pig cages to larger ones. You can buy a cage similar to what they are living in for $25. We also have this type of cage (used) -- https://www.petsmart.com/small-pet/cages-habitats-and-hutches/cages/midwest-guinea-pig-habitat-plus-5171984.html -- for $30.

Regardless of past guinea pig experience, all potential homes will be asked to read our guinea pig care packet and fill out our adoption application/guinea pig questionnaire. If you are unwilling to do this, please do not waste our time or yours. No guinea pig will go to a new home without an adoption application being filled out - no exceptions.

Sylvester & Arnold are located in Hammond, Indiana (46324). Sorry, but we do not ship.

The adoption fee for Sylvester and Arnold is $60
