VA-Cave Spring Piggie Rescue-Baby Boy

Cave Spring Piggie Rescue; Roanoke, VA: Simon!

Simon was born at the regional ASPCA on March 2nd, 2008. He is an American cross with silkie type hair. He is very sweet and laid back for a baby. Wow, normally they are such zoomers and nibblers! Sounds like Simon would be a great match for an older male pig who needs a mate. The rescue is listing him as special needs because he is a satin: "He will need yearly x-rays to evaluate bone densities to determine if he will need calcium supplements in the future. It may or may not be a problem for him. But boy, he is so pretty and he does shine."




* 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. *
