This Little Piggy & Me

Adoption and Rescue of Guinea Pigs

When I found and purchased my "perfect little piggy" (of course I'm talking about Abby), I also purchased three (3) different books on Guinea Pigs.  Not knowing that websites even existed, I believed everything contained within the pages of 'my resource books'.  They had chapters on:

  • The Origin of Guinea Pigs  -  Care and Grooming of Guinea Pigs  -  Nutrition for Guinea Pigs  -  Housing Your Guinea Pig  -  The Different Breeds and Varieties 
    Where to get a Guinea Pig  -  Health Problems of Guinea Pigs  -  Understanding Your Guinea Pig  -  Training a Guinea Pig  -  Behavioral Problems and How to Solve Them  -  Ideas for Playtime  -  Showing Your Guinea Pig  -  Genetics  -
    and unfortunately, Breeding Your Guinea Pig

After a period of time, Steve and I began seeing inconsistancies and untruths in each of our books.  That is why we have decided to glean from each publication what we found helpful to us.

So WELCOME TO OUR NEW ADOPTER'S GUIDE!!  We hope you find it helpful and useful in your quest to be the very best Guinea Pig Parent you can be!!
