Lucas's Story

Name: Lucas<br/>DOB: 5.10.2026<br/>Sex: Male<br/>Type: unknown mixed/ coat is short to medium (no extra care required)<br/>Color: Agouti and Tan<br/>Handle-ability: Typical, skittish when reaching for him but settles quickly. <br/>History: Another situation where two animals were purchased from a pet store. The pet store either did not sex, or failed to sex correctly, leading to an unexpected litter. The financial pressure the pet store put on the family due to their irresponsible behavior required the family to reluctantly surrender the animals. We took half the family to start with. <br/>Arrival Date: 6/30/2026<br/><br/>Note: Jester is a baby guinea pig who has a lot of growing to do. When they are this age they can be a little more nibbly. Children should make sure they wash their hands before handling so they do not smell like food, and keep their hands to the top of the guinea pig's back. Guinea pigs have poor eyesight and rely on their noses to determine if something is food and baby animals are still learning about their environment- they may think a finger is food. If a baby guinea pig does nip do not reward it by giving it food or by putting it back in the cage right away. Instead adjust how it is being held so that it can not nibble fingers again and continue holding for a few minutes- if the guinea pig has calmed down, reward it by returning it to the cage. As your baby guinea pig adjusts to your home and family the nibbling should stop. <br/><br/>To inquire about adoption you may:<br/>Text us at: (513) 427-3487 <br/>Email us at: chatterandsqueaks@gmail.com<br/>Fill out an intent to adopt form at: www.chatterandsqueaks.com/adoption
