Kia's Story

Guinea Pigs can live to be 5-7 years old. Are you ready for that commitment? If so, read on! Before you begin the process of adoption, please keep in mind: 1) We do not allow any Street Paws Guinea Pig to be housed (or excercised) outside at any time. 2) Our Guinea Pigs must come back to us for rehoming if you ever find yourself unable to care for them. Please check out the Oakhurst Guinea Pig Rescue directions to become familiar with the specific needs of a Guinea Pig and how to keep them healthy :<br/><br/>Things to consider before your adopt: https://www.ogpr.org/new-page-1<br/><br/>Read: https://www.ogpr.org/guineapig101<br/><br/>Watch: youtube.com/watch?v=hDzbOUU_k1s&feature=youtu.be<br/><br/>Cage Sizes: https://www.ogpr.org/ogpr-cages<br/><br/>We require 8-9 square feet per Guinea Pig. They need a lot of room to run and play, and we want to ensure there is not fighting between pairs. Pet store cages are too small, and multilevel cages are dangerous. We recommend fleece beding. It is better for the guinea pigs since it is soft on their feet. it wicks away the urine and you can easily spot clean the cage of the waste/hay daily. It is also economical since you can wash it weekly in a washing machine with fragrence free/dye free soap and diluted white vinegar. Other choices are paper bedding. Aspen, or Kiln Dried pine pellets. This can be messy and expensive and we recommend this in the "kitchen" area rather than the entire cate. DO NOT USE PINE OR CEDAR SHAVINGS! These can be dangerous to their respiratory systems and can make them ill.<br/><br/>Adoption fee is $60. We only adopt to families within 150 miles of Street Paws.<br/><br/>Apply here: https://www.streetpaws.org/adopt
