adding new guinea pig

I have two lovely rescue girls who we’ve had for 2 years since they were 6 months old. I’m wondering about expanding and adding another piggie to the mix. Would this be cruel to them as they are well bonded and I worry about disrupting that? If we were to look at another one is there any...

I’m new to this site and thought I’d come on here for some much needed advice. I have a 4 month old guinea pig (Poppy) and I’ve recently tried adding another (Gracie) who is a little over a year old. Gracie was surrendered by a family and has always lived alone in her cage. They’ve been in the...

Hiya Me and my mum rescue all our animals, only time we've had anything from babies is our kittens which were neglected and was given to us for free! Anyway, so we took in a female Guinea pig in February and she was alone for a month until we decided to get her a friend (we were worried because...

So I'm in a bit of a dilemma at the moment.. I currently have two beautiful boys who I adore- they are 5 months old and live in the kitchen :nod: On my last few visits to pets at home for supplies for the piggies there have been two boys in the adoption section who are super cute. Now...
