LISTING REMOVED Midlothian (near Richmond), VA: Two year old male guinea pigs with a C&C cage available for rehoming due to life change and a child losing interest. They are active pigs who love to squeal and jump. They come with two food dishes, water bottle, pigloo and second hideaway, food and bedding for a reasonable adoption fee, as well as a book on guinea pig care, and a cage scoop. They also offer two cardboard carrying cases; it's better to invest in hard plastic carrying cases (these are safer in the event of an car accident).
GUINEA PIG LESSON: a no no from an otherwise extraordinary set up: they offer vitamin C water drops. It is NOT advisable to put vitamin C in the water, because it makes the water tastes bad and discourages the guinea pig from drinking as much (plus I forget the term, but the vitamin C is only actually effective in the water for the first five minutes, then it's just bad tasting water for the rest of the day). Your guinea pig should get enough vitamin C from a diet of fresh veggies, but if you're worried, Oxbow makes a Vitamin C tablet.
Many sad accidents or "accidents" can be avoided this way. *
