LAST UPDATE: 8/13/22 Milkdud and Butterfinger were surrendered to Little Buddies Refuge after receiving a message on February 7th, 2022 from someone who wanted to surrender them "ASAP" and didnt want to surrender them to a kill shelter. • WHO IS WHO? Milkdud: black & white; to the right Butterfinger: black, white, & light brown/tan; to the left • ABOUT THEM RELATIONSHIP: We believe these two to be brothers. AGES: We have approximated these two to be about 2 years old. PERSONALITIES: Since they are in a foster home we do not know too much about their personalities other than they are doing well and adjusting to their new environment. • BACKSTORY Unfortunately, upon arriving to their foster home, their foster mom noticed that they may have bumblefoot as they had some scarring on their feet. She thankfully was able to take them to the vet and get their feet healed up. They have been living happily with their foster mom and await their forever home! • ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS OWNERSHIP: Potential adopters must be knowledgable of guinea pig care. Previous ownership of guinea pigs is not required. Children must not be the main caretakers or be financially responsible. CAGE SIZE: These boys require a MINIMUM of 13 sqft in their cage, regardless of how much time outside the cage they get. This could be a 2x5 C&C cage or two Midwest Guinea Habitats put together. Of course, bigger is always better, and if you can give these guys more space then you should! CAGE NECESSITIES: WATER BOTTLES: They should have at least 2 water bottles filled with fresh, clean water and refilled frequently. PELLET DISHES: These boys get along well and will be fine with one small pellet dish. BEDDING: Safe, clean, cozy, and unscented bedding is a must. We highly recommend fleece liners from GuineaDad. HIDES: This pair will need at least one adequate hide per pig. We recommend 3 for the two of them. While beds are cute, they dont necessarily count as hides. Adequate hides for each of them should be wooden or cardboard. Tunnels are great, too. ENRICHMENT: While not entirely necessary, toys are fun for piggies. Toys would be great for them as long as theyre safe and dont contain any harmful ingredients. He does not require time outside the cage if his cage is large enough. • OUR PROTOCOL Guinea pigs are adorable and make great pets, however as many small animals often do they require special care. We ask that you do some research about their care before reaching out to us uninformed.
