Adult Guinea Pig
Introducing the new boys at Walsall RSPCA, these boys will be up for adoption in a few weeks.
Beano and Dandy
These boys are very friendly and inquisitive, they love attention and are always at the front of the cage wheeking for food.
Paddington
Paddington in a ridgeback cross baby boy, he is quite nervous, but is getting more confident by the day. He is being neutered soon and will then be available for rehoming.
Morse
Morse is a teddy?, he is a stunning piggy, who takes a while to trust people, we think he may have limited sight in his eyes as he is startled easily, he is also sensitive to bright lights. He is being neutered soon and will then be available for rehoming.

Nice new pigs Vic, Pad looks a character!
For anyone who'd like an update about Jerry:
I adopted lil' Jerry about a week and a half ago and everything is going well :-)
He was really nervous when I first brought him home and didn't seem to understand what his pigloo was for, choosing to headbutt it out of his way and hide behind it instead! However he soon learnt and would only come out of it whenever he thought the coast was clear to eat his food (running back in as soon as I came in the room!)
About a day after he arrived both himself and Minnie took to jumping out of their cages whilst being cleaned and chewing the bars on one anothers cage! He met Minnie first with the help of a pile of greens and Minnie didn't know what to make of him as he wouldn't submit to letting her pull the food out of his mouth! (Something she'd always been used to doing to her old pal Jake) ;-)
After a couple of days of gradually introducing the two of them during laptime and outside in the garden they've now moved in together. Everything seems to be going well with Jerry doing much rumble strutting and sqeaking happily whilst chasing and trying to mount Minnie! Minnie has definitely met her match as Jerry seems to be just as cheeky as her in everyway! He is incredibly confident when with her, climbing the bars to sniff at the cats nose when in his outdoor run and tipping the pigloos upside down!
He's still quite nervous of people, but getting better and will start to buck buck after a while of sitting on your lap. They've spent the last few days out in the sun this week chasing each other through tunnels and popcorning! Will try to post some pics when I can.

I'm so pleased Jerry came to live with you, I know he will have the best of everything and be allowed to come around in his own time.
It is great to hear of him doing normal piggy things as when he first came to me all he did was sit in the corner of the cage, he hardly ate a thing.
Please keep us posted on how he and Minnie are getting on.

It's so terrible when piggies are like that. My Minnie was scared when she came to live with me from Small Paws a year ago. She is better now but I think the lack of handling when she was young will always affect her.
