LISTING REMOVED Norfolk, VA: Three guinea pigs, the mother and two babies. A large cage (check out the link below to see what size this site endorses), a rolling ball (these can break the spine and bones in the feet, causing fatal injuries for guinea pigs), two chew proof trays, food (good food for a healthy guinea, like Oxbow, has no colored bits), a water feeder, bedding, igloo, and treats (research their safety on GuineaLynx to make sure they're not one of many toxic products marketed toward guinea pigs by pet stores). For fee.

LISTING REMOVED. Norfolk, VA: Seven month old healthy male guinea pig named Chip not known to bite is being rehomed, repost. Small adoption fee as well as screening. Chip can come with his cage, house, water bottle with guard and food dish for an additional fee, though his cage does have a crack. Why not take it as an opportunity to get him a nice C&C cage with room for a lovely piggy buddy?


* AAGP recommends quarantining any new guinea pigs
for 2-3 weeks and confirming the sex yourself.

VA-Cave Spring Piggie Rescue-Gorgeous female pair!

Cave Spring Piggie Rescue; Roanoke, VA: Paris and Peaches!


Paris is a beautiful red american shorthair with ruby eyes. Her existence in the rescue is a classic story--the pet store missexed her mother as a boy, and then she had babies--tada! Paris. As she is too young to spay, she must be housed with other females. She's made a good friend in Peaches, an owner surrender who quickly bonded to Paris.
