after reading some posts i feel a bit bad having milo on his own.. i do have him out alot to make him feel less lonely. but i cant help feeling that he might be better with a friend.

i would go to a rescue for one, but do you think i should get a older male or female?
 
Well done on deciding to give Milo a friend!
The best way would be to take Milo to the rescue with you so that he can choose his friend himself (most will let you). That way you know that they will get on.

Good luck and let us know how you get on.

sounds silly but how will i no that milo likes the guinea pig?

does anyone no where the nearest rescue from me is. i live in basildon essex
 
You will know! and the person from the rescue will definitely know. Basically you will need to look out for any sign of aggression (more likely to happen with another boar but could also happen with a sow) like rumbling, bitting etc...
A good rescue will be able to advise you.

Sorry I don't know any rescues near you but there is a list of rescues on here: http://www.theguineapigforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=123.0
 
Maybe you should wait until 6 months when Milo can be neutered? Then he could have a female friend. You were so concerned about Milo not getting on with the other male you had (didn't you have to take him back?) maybe it would be better to get him a friend that definately suits him?
 
yea thats what i want to do but i keep gettin toold that milo will be lonely which is makin me feel upset. if i get him neutered will it hurt him :'(
