Dexter and Diego's Story
Dexter and Diego are two very young boys that were abandoned at only a few weeks old. When they got here, they had major trust issues. The rescue has been gently trying to gain their trust, and finally, after 7 weeks, we have finally gotten them to the point to where we can hold them and give them treats and gain their trust. <br/><br/>They are now able to be held and loved on. They are still a little skittish on being caught to hold, but once you have them, they are happy to be held. Because of their hesitation on being caught, we recommend children be at least 12 years old and calm. With some TLC and good treats, these boys will be great family pets in no time. <br/><br/>They are very bonded and must be adopted together. <br/><br/>Boys or girls?? Males are usually much more cuddly at an earlier age than females. Males get along just as well as females. <br/><br/>Like all bonded pairs, they have to be adopted together. If you would like to meet these boys, any of the other adoptable piggies at the rescue, or would like more information please email wheekcare2017@gmail.com.<br/><br/>Guinea pigs are social animals and should always have at least one other friend of their own kind. These wonderful little creatures live an average of 6 to 8 years. We’ve even seen them live until they were 9-10 years old! Children under the age of 12 should always be supervised by an adult when holding guinea pigs. Also, a responsible adult should supervise their care and well-being. Email us at wheekcare2017@gmail.com for more information including our adoption form and our Guinea Pig Care Packet with the essential information all guinea pig owners should have.
