MD-Small Angels-Young Abby Boar

Small Angels Rescue; Foster network stemming outward from Frederick, MD: ADOPTED! Bartolo! FAVORITE PIGGY AWARD!

Bartolo is one of my favorite piggies, hence the award. I've seen him knock around different photos on the shelter website and I'm so happy he's now with a rescue. I'd be so happy to see him with an "Adopted!" label.

He was rescued from the shelter where his family had surrendered him because they had no time for him. Poor Bartolo! He is a neutered ginger and white Abby boy, which means he could be boyfriend to your girl!

"He is shy and requires gentle handling, but once on your lap, he enjoys a cuddle." This boy deserves the most loving of forever fomes. Good luck Bartolo!

SCROLL DOWN FOR NEW PIGS


March is National
Adopt a Guinea Pig Month!


Celebrate it by doing just that! Providing you have the resources and preparation to bring a guinea pig (and a friend) into your home--April's okay too :) (It doesn't have to be the cruelest month after all).

Our beautiful guinea model is a beloved guinea girl from GuineaLynx named Meimei. Her person is a beloved GuineaLynx member named Cutemomomi. Meimei has passed over the Rainbow Bridge, but she will never be forgotten. If you would like to learn more about the wonderful life Meimei lived with Cutemomomi, and her wonderful guinea pals, it is chronicled here, here and here. Thank you Momo for permission to use her dear girl's image.
