VA-Craigslist-Fairfax bonded females

*If responding to an ad by an individual, meet in a public place
or go with a friend. Google the phone number of the poster to

ensure it matches the name he or she gives *


LISTING REMOVED Fairfax, VA: 1 y.o. females available for adoption, come with appropriately sized C&C cage (hooray!). "Moccas is affectionate, Spooky a bit skittish until she gets to know you." They are alert and smart. GUINEA PIG LESSON: Poster essentially suggests the guinea pigs need to be housed in a high to medium traffic area of the house, how true! The basement or haunted room that only allows visitors every other Tuesday is not the place for guinea pigs. They need to be part of the family, especially in order to monitor their health. Weigh them weekly with a gram scale for best indication of dips in health.



* 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. *
