Meet Penelope

We are tickled pink to have another guinea pig at the shelter. Though we are sad her family did not have time for Penelope anymore, they are one of our favorite pets because they are always so sweet. Nellie has been with her family for two years and is now 3 years old. She lived with three children and was very gentle with them. Guinea pigs need and enjoy daily human interaction and should be handled and given attention at least twice a day to remain happy and social. Their cages also require regular cleaning.

Guinea pigs are active, gentle, relatively low maintenance pets that love companionship, delight in cuddles and make great pets for gentle children six years old and up. Guinea pigs are happiest when they have a clean cage and lots of interactive socialization time with their person. They do require fresh hay and greens (lettuce, parsley, basil, etc.) on a daily basis and adopters should consider this expense when adding a guinea pig to their family.
