This animal daily routine: Not really, in the morning he is used to having his cage spot cleaned (and again before bed). He gets veggies twice a day - morning and evening. And also a vitamin C tablet before bed. He also sleeps with a night light on....hehe

BFF (Does this animal have or need a same species friend in their home?): Sky recently lost his cage mate and is searching for a home with another guinea pig to bond with.

Other notes: Sky is a very very easy going, older dude, looking for his forever family that is willing to give him lots of attention, hay and pellets. He doesnt need a lot of veggies, as he is a little picky and doesnt tend to eat them all, but he will eat all the hay!! He also loves to snuggle & pancake out on the couch and watch TV with his foster.

Sky made his way back to MNPPR after his adopter no longer had time to provide care for him.

Due to our rescue being foster based, not all foster homes are located in Saint Paul, MN.  Sky’s foster parent prefers to meet at the PetSmart - 3589 River Rapids Dr, Minneapolis, MN 55448 for meet & greets, & adoptions.

Our adoption process can be found on our website here: https://www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/process

Fee: Sky has an adoption fee of $25

Due to health and safety concerns, we are now pursuing adoptions with additional safety measures in place. We will be asking potential adopters to discuss their individual preferences and comfort levels involving safety precautions during the greeting/adoption day step. We are HIGHLY suggesting all participants wear facial coverings, stay at least six feet apart, & use sanitization of all surfaces, and hands before and after contact.

We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.
