Anyone with a preloved account?

[Alicia]

I'm sorry I know preloved ads are not allowed to be posted on the forum its just that I can't go to a rescue to get a guinea-pig (It's up to my mum and a lot of rescues are further away than she wants to travel from so I normally get my guinea-pigs from free-ads and similar places - I know it's not the best way and when I can drive I will go to rescues!) I have been looking for an adult sow and I was on preloved looking and found one that sounds perfect and not too far away but it wont let me contact her owner because I don't have an account and when I tried to get an account it wouldn't work.
I'm very sorry if this isn't allowed, but if someone has got a preloved account that would be able to get the contact details for me could you please send me a private message?

Thank you

Please be very careful hun, not everyone on preloved is very honest and you have no guarantees as to this guinea's health or past.

I am more than happy to help you with a piggy train if a rescue local to me has any sows you like, I mean it, you are not overly far and I understand your issues with your mum xx

Thank you, that's very kind of you I'm hopefully extending my girls hutch to make it just under 8ft, so I'm going to see what Mum says about rescue guinea-pigs, but she doesn't really like the idea of it, because she thinks its easier to go to a breeder or get one from an advert, I feel bad because I could get to a rescue but my parents won't take me I don't know if I'm going to get this guinea-pig, I know I should be careful of health problems with her and things and I'm going to ask her owner lots of questions first, I'm just going to see what she says.

Has she been with other girls before? Some guineas (like it seems Snickers) don't like other girls and will be very aggressive to them.

Have a word with your mum and tell her some of the horror stories we have unfortunately had here where people adopt from freeads. Would she rather have the slight inconvenience of a homecheck, or a lot of money spent on vets fees?

Alternatively let her meet Snickers and Bounty, who are taking a long time and a lot of patience to come round and be friendly and came from Gumtree, then Bruno, who came from rescue, who is currently throwing his ball at the front of the hutch as he wants his tea....lol
