LISTING REMOVED Upper Marlboro, MD: Another Christmas purchase to Craigslist posting. Two guinea pigs being rehomed sex not specified. Since they came from the petstore, you will probably want to double check the sex anyway. One pig is white with black and orange, and the other one is brown and looks like a squirrel (maybe a teddy?). They are being rehomed due to the present owners being unable to commit to the amount of work associated with guinea pigs.
They come with a TV hutch the deluxe cage sits in, as well as a large number of toys, trinkets, grooming supplies, treats, play pens, carrying bags, sleeping bags, etc. Bad news for the poster, a large number of these things are probably either completely ignored by the pigs, or toxic for them. GUINEA PIG LESSON: Guinea pigs are perfectly happy playing with a cardboard box or toilet paper roll (sans toilet paper), or a crumpled up paper bag. The pet stores create toys that either have small metal parts, or toxic materials in the "edible" toys, for a profit, when the best guinea pig toys can be found for free in your home!
Many sad accidents or "accidents" can be avoided this way. *
