MD/VA/DC-Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue-New Girl Pigs and Pair

Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue, MD/VA/DC: New Girl Pigs and a pair! ALL PIGS SPAYED AND NEUTERED! (Post on males to follow).

This is the fabulous rescue for which I foster, and they are always looking for new foster homes. I'm going to cheat and just quote their bios from their site.

UPDATE:

Sugar Lips is six months old. "What a sweet face on this little girl. Those little pig lips look like shes just been nibbling on a powdered sugar confection. While we don't think that would be a great idea for any of our pigs one can always imagine. Sugar Lips will need to be adopted as a friend for your guinea pig or with one of ours. She is a young lively girl that will need someone to romp with."





Cinnamon is one year old. "This is a sweet natured pig that was taken into our rescue with a new litter. Much to our surprise she was already pregnant again. I think this girl needs a long vacation and a forever home with lots of hugs and cuddles."







Fawn is six months old. "Fawn is a lively youngster that just loves to get out and run around at floor time. Shes not afraid to let you know when it's dinner time either. A tad shy with people still she has no problem bossing around her cage mates. She does enjoy having someone to boss around so she will need to be adopted with one of our pigs or as a friend for yours."






ADOPTED! Fudge is five months old. "This girl is super fast. We probably should have named her Stealth. She likes running with her cage mate Cali and will need to be adopted with another pig or as a companion to yours."








ADOPTED! Cali is five months old. "Cali has markings much like a calico cat. She also looks totally different from each side. She likes to play with her cage mate Fudge and just adores the rattle of veggie bags. This sweet young girl needs a forever home with a piggy to play with as well as a human or two to fall in love with."



Cupid is four months old. "Cupid was born in our care the day before valentines days. She is a sweet lively girl and will need a companion pig to play and grow with. She will be a wonderful friend for your pig or adopt her with another one of ours."





ADOPTED! Gilda is a four month old crested short hair. "Gilda is the sister of Angus and koogan. The trio was dropped-off at the shelter with their mom when they were only a week old. Gilda loves other pigs and loves to be held, but is not active within her cage. She must be adopted with another pig."



UPDATE:

Star is a nine month old abby girl. "Star is a beautiful, multicolored Abbysinian who came to MGPR still nursing her two babies, Leon and Michelle. Star loves to romp in the grass with her two babies, and is happy to eat most anything you give her. At first she was a bit shy, but has grown more and more calm, allowing the adoring neighborhood children to pet her. Ideally, she would be adopted out with Michelle, but at the very least as one of a pair."


ADOPTED! Miss Marple is a former foster of mine! She's a four month old girl. I named her Miss Marple because she's so tiny and curious and cute. "Miss Marple is a beautiful girl with remarkable coloring. Malnourished when we took her in, Miss Marple will most likely be on the small side for her entire life. However she has developed into a true cuddle bug with a great out going personality."



Wonka and Tate are a five month old male and female pair, and they "are a wonderfully silly pair!"


ADOPTED! Fluffy is a one year old guinea pig. "Fluffy is a sweet girl with a nice easy going personality. Named after the hugely popular children's books "Fluffy, the Classroom Guinea Pig". She too is a star. She helped represent Balt. Co. Humane Society on one of their tv appearances."





Snowball is a snuggle bug that just loves to cuddle up for lap time. She very much likes the company of other pigs and must be adopted as a companion to yours or with one of ours. She is one year old.









ADOPTED! Sandy has a sweet calm personality. Shes loves lap time and floor time and lots of fresh veggies. She will make a great companion for your male or one of ours. P.S. She also loves a good chin scratch. She is eight months old.

ADOPTED! Isadora Is adorable!!!!! This sweet beauty was born in our care. She is the spitting image of her mother right down to the eye liner around those beautiful eyes. She is playful and active and full of fun. She is more than ready for her very own forever home and a piggy friend to share it with. She can not be adopted as a single. She is two months old and crested!

MY PERSONAL THREE FOSTERS!

Tizzy is a whirlwind of a piggy! She is a very active girl who loves to popcorn and play "piggy spy" with her friends during floor time. Tizzy would be best suited for a guinea-experienced home, and should not be adopted to a home with young children. Lettuce leaves be warned: Tizzy is on the prowl! UPDATE: Tizzy is becoming a total lap pig. Tizzy is five months old



ADOPTED! Hildegard von Beaver-Pig is eight months old. "Hildy is a guinea pig superstar! She has soft, fluffy fur and loves to be pet, so long as you don't mind her climbing all over you. She is a popcorning maniac and absolutely loves floortime. After just a few days with her we knew she must be guinea pig royalty, and so she got her surname. She must be adopted with another guinea pig. She appears to be the mother of Tizzy."

Aimé is a sweetheart piggy girl, who loves lap time as much as floor time, and she loves floor time! She is a champion popcorner, and can't wait to have a pig companion with whom to race and cuddle. Aimé cannot be an only pig. She is six months old.

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

Metropolitan Guinea Pig Rescue, MD/VA/DC: New boy pigs! ALL PIGS SPAYED AND NEUTERED! (Post on females here).

This is the fabulous rescue for which I foster, and they are always looking for new foster homes. I'm going to cheat and just quote their bios from their site.

ADOPTED! Huggs is a four month old male. "Huggs is a sweet lively boy just as his name implies. Born in our care the day before valentines day, he is very anxious to have his very own forever home with some nice humans and a piggy girl to spend the rest of his life with. Huggs can not be adopted as a single pig."






ADOPTED! Kisses is a four month old male. "What do you think. Can it be pure coincidence that this sweet boy born the day before valentines day has a head that so resembles a Chocolate kiss? This yummy little fellow needs a forever home of his very own with a girlie pig to play away the days with. He can not be an only pig. He must be adopted to pair with your pig or with one of ours."





Rocky is a five month old gray and white agouti. His bio reads: "Rocky is a very outgoing and curious little fellow with very unique coloring. He has lots of energy and loves floor time."








Charlie Chaplin is five months old. "This debonair guy will surely charm his new owner with his good looks and lively personality. He will need to be adopted as a companion to your pig or with one of ours. If you're wondering, both pictures are of Charlie. How cool is he???"

ADOPTED! Checkers is five months old. "Our picture doesn't show the unique checker pattern on this little fellows back. A long with his great markings he has a lively personality and lots of energy.Floor time and room to run are big favorites of Checkers.

He will need to be a cage mate to your girl or with one of ours. "


Angus and Koogan are three month old bonded males who can be adopted together or be adopted individually as mates to your pigs. "Interested in learning Koogan's bluff? He's a sensitive guy! He loves his brother very much and can't stand to have him out of his sight. (For all you movie buffs, that's why our Koogan is special and spelled with a K instead of a C!) Angus, a beautiful Self Black/Chocolate boy, is a true snuggle bug and loves to be cuddled. Both are very inquisitive and love to explore. They love their fresh veggies and will give you reminders each time you open the fridge door! These boys are very active and may not be well suited to a family with very young children"

Bruiser is two months old. " Talk about personality plus. This big guy came into the world thinking he owns it and nothing has changed his mind to date. He is one hundred percent interested in everything going on around him. So much so he can hardly stand to go in his pigaloo to rest. Lap time, floor time, he loves it all. He loves the girls too and will absolutely have to have a female cage mate. "


Leon is a three month old male. "Leon is a completely sweet, calm, beautiful multicolored short haired baby.. he is all of 3 months old, and came to MGPR still nursing from his mom, Star. Leon loves to be held and pet, and should be adopted with another guinea pig. He loves the social interaction of other guinea pigs."

ADOPTED! Foxfur is four months old. "This dapper young lad came in with his brother Badger. They love each other and popcorning. Which is all the time so I'd say this is one happy youngster. He would love to go with his bro or to get married to your single girl piggie. Either way, you will get alot of happy times with this one! In his foster home he thinks his name is Wuzzy or Buddy. "
ADOPTED! Badger is four months old. "This handsome chap came in with his brother Foxfur. Although, his foster family call them Fuzzy and Wuzzy or Fuzzy and Buddy. Whatever you call them, they are love bugs and would love to go together or to get married and live happily ever after. Don't let this pair get away!!!"

She is tender of heart and did not eat very much for two weeks after she was surrendered by her owner. It would not be unexpected for the same thing to happen when she leaves her foster home.
