VA-Craigslist-Baby Girl

* If responding to a Craigslist ad 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 Richmond, VA: Hey, she looks familiar. Haven't we seen you around...here? Baby girl guinea must have been adopted off of CL, but she's not bonding with the pig she was adopting for. Not to say she's not great, she is very social and sweet. She comes with a cage even her temporary owner says is too small, a wooden hidey home, and a pigloo. Her temporary owner says that you must provide a receipt for a C&C size cage (see links below) in order to adopt her.



* AAGP recommends quarantining any new guinea pigs

MD-Chesapeake Bay Guinea Pig Rescue-Adult Boar

Chesapeake Bay Guinea Pig Rescue, Inc.; Annapolis, MD: LISTING REMOVED Alfred!


Poor Alfred just lost his bonded buddy named PJ, so he needs, as the rescue puts it "a little extra tender loving care from a forever home." Absolutely! Time for this guy to get a home with a friend. He is big guy and quite lovable. He has a lot of personality, and is a little bit hand-shy, but is very friendly and doesn't mind being held. Help Alfred out!

LISTING REMOVED. Virginia Beach/Salem, VA: Two bonded girls who love to be held and are very sweet are being rehomed. Their too small cage, water bottle (should have two), food dish (should have two), toys, Vitamin C supplements (research whether they're safe or not), and bedding. Reasonable rehoming fee. (I fault the petstores, not the poster, by the way, 95% of the time).

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

Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue-MD/VA/DC: ADOPTED! Quark and ADOPTED! Ethel and Lucy!

Once again, I am going to cheat and just copy the bios. But I will note that Mr. AAGP did say that Rabbie looks amazingly like a Pug-Pig, which is hilariously true.


Ethel and Lucy are two years and two months old. Their bio reads: "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. (Spayed on 3/12/08.)" And they are monsters of cute:




Quark is seven months old and his bio reads: "Introducing Quark, the next ruler of your household. Quark is an outgoing pig who expects lots of love and attention. You will obey!"
