2 Sweet Male Guinea Pigs
Description
I am very sad to have to write this ad but due to financial constraints I need to rehome my boys.
"Billy" (orange/white, pics 1&2) and "Bongo" (orange/brown/white, pics 3&4) are a bonded pair and need to stay together.
Billy is the alpha, he is the friendlier of the two and always the first to approach you. He is obsessed with carrots! Lettuce and potato will always get him climbing the bars too. He is super lazy and therefore easier to catch and cuddle. He will hang out on your lap for hours, especially if you have a few snacks there!
Bongo is a bit more skittish but can never resist being lured by treats! Blueberries and Strawberries are his treat of choice and he will "whoop" when he smells me cutting them in the kitchen. Cilantro and parsley will always get his attention too! Bongo has more energy than his brother and prefers to be running around on the ground instead of sitting still, but if you have treats on your lap he will certainly stay put long enough to eat them!
Neither of them have ever bitten or shown any signs of aggression towards men women or children. Billy will occasionally hump Bongo to re-establish dominance. Sometimes Bongo will fight back and they will argue for a minute but they have never actually fought or injured eachother.
They are used to our cats being around but because of the natural bacteria on the claws and in the mouths of cats and dogs whoever adopts them will have to make sure they don't come into contact with other pets.
If you are interested please tell me a bit about yourself and your home, any experience you have with pets or past guineas, and why you are interested in adding guinea pigs to your family.
Guinea pigs need at least an hour of "floor time" every day. They need hay available at all times as well as fresh water. I usually give 2 handfuls of their kibble in the morning and an assortment of greens (lettuce, cilantro, parsley, kale, spinach, etc..) and a few treats (carrots, berries, potato, apples) during their floor time, usually I spread the greens around for them on the floor towels and hand feed the treats.
They will come with their big cage, leftover kibble and bedding, water bottle, food bowl, and leftover treats. I love them dearly and will only let them go to someone who is prepared to keep them for the last 2+ years of their life and give them all the love and kisses they deserve.
