MD/VA/DC-Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue-New Pigs and All Pigs!

Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue: DC/MD/VA: All available pigs! All pigs spayed and neutered! I foster for this rescue and can attest to all of these pigs being wonderful!

ADOPTED! "Frank is a very personal guinea pig who likes both people and other pigs. He is looking for a girl-pig in his forever home. This guinea pig must be paired with another guinea pig." M 1y 3m




"Oreo is a big sweet Guy that will be happy to be adopted with your female piggy. This guinea pig must be paired with another guinea pig." M 1y 1m teddy mix

"Kelly is a very laid-back and calm piggy. He loves being petted! He is listed as special needs as he needs to have regular dental visits. He is otherwise very healthy (and loveable)!" M 2y 7m special needs



ADOPTED! "Rollo is a burst full of energy! She is bonded with her mother, Gypsy, and they must be adopted together. Rollo has recently learned to love laptime and being pet, but her old favorite will always popcorning around wildly during floortime. Second to meals of course! F 7m"




ADOPTED! "Gypsy is an absolutely beautiful piggy with a tame personality to match. She is bonded with her daughter Rollo, and they must be adopted together. Gypsy loves to popcorn around the floor during floortime, but will also sit in your lap like a kitten letting you pet her for hours. F 1y 3m"




ADOPTED! "Putter is a mellow little boy. He gets his name because he loves to get out of his cage and putter around the house. His foster mom never knows what he's going to decide to look into next. He loves the girls and will need to be adopted as a friend to your piggy or with one of ours. Putter has a single upper incisor that should not cause him any problems as long as he gets plenty of hay and some chewy sticks. This guinea pig must be paired with another guinea pig. M 6m"



ADOPTED! "Ethel and Lucy are a sweet pair of sisters that have been together a long time and must remain together. They are very gentle and sweet natured. They jump up on the side of their cage eagerly and vocally awaiting first breakfast, and just love to snuggle in for lots of hugs and kisses at lap time. F 2y 4m"



ADOPTED! "Diedre is a lovely girl--and she's very cuddly. She's calm and friendly and would likely get along very well with another pig. F 10m"






"Brindy has become a total cuddle pig, but that doesn't stop her from loving floortime too! She is a very sweet and active piggy. Brindy must be adopted with another pig, however, she has a very type A personality. She would be best suited with an unneutered male or a type B female. This girl has lots of love to give. F 6m"




ADOPTED! "Axl is a beautiful adult male who was recently returned to the rescue because his family moved into an apartment that wouldn't keep him. He loves other pigs and isn't used to living alone. He looking for a nice girlfriend and a home that will keep him forever. M 1y 9m"



ADOPTED! "Baby Angel Face is a very special little lady. She needs to be adopted by an adult or an older teen that is going to spend LOTS of one on one time with her. She is very petite and will not get much bigger. She does enjoy floor time spent with other pigs but she is happiest when perched on her humans shoulder and will happily stay there as long as you will allow it. She is tender of heart and did not eat very much for two weeks after she was surrendered by her owner. It would not be unexpected for the same thing to happen when she leaves her foster home. This sweet girl needs a once and for all forever home and her very own human to own for all time. F 10m"

ADOPTED! "Puff is an active girl that has never considered being anything but in charge of her female cage mates. She loves her food and lets you know it every time you open the fridge. She can be adopted as a companion to your male, or with one of ours. She must have a cage mate in any case." F 5m


ADOPTED! "Valentina is a very sweet girl who came into our rescue very shortly before giving birth on February 13th, hence her sweet name. She is a little shy but still very interested in everything that is going on around her. She very much enjoys the company of other pigs so she will need to be adopted as a companion to yours or with one of ours." F 1y





ADOPTED! "Vera and Ully are rambunctious youngsters with lots of energy." F/M 5m







ADOPTED! "Rabbie and Roxy are a pair of abbies. Rabbie is about a year old (M), Roxy about 4 months (F). They are absolutely devoted to each other, and want to do everything together. Both are very intelligent, and Rabbie is extremely friendly to people--Roxy is a little more shy, but coming around quickly."





ADOPTED! "This adorable guy [Boo Boo] is always ready for a cuddle up. He is very interested in everything that goes on around him and wants piggy friends as well as humans to live with, so he will need to be adopted as a companion to your pet or with one of ours. How about Yogi? He loves to sit on top of his Pigaloo. He even has Yogi doing it now." M 1y




ADOPTED! "Flake is a beautiful girl. She is vocal about her culinary needs and lot's of fun to have around. Adopt her and you can hear the entire story as to why her foster family calls her Baby Rat Face. She likes the company of other pigs and people so she will have to be adopted as a companion to your pig or with one of ours." F 6m






* AAGP recommends quarantining any new guinea pigs
for 2-3 weeks and confirming the sex yourself.
Many sad accidents or "accidents" can be avoided this way. *
