I've looked in all my rescue centers, NOT ONE! So I'm going to still keep looking. If I don't hear nothing this week I'm going to get one from my local shop. I think sometimes they have rescues in. They have a noticed board aswell, I've looked on that nothing. I was wondering about the 34 pounds indoor cage would that be suitable for two? I can't remenber what it's called. It's in P@H, But I'm not getting Guinea pigs from there. Even though they do have some gorgeous ones.
 
what are you talking about? ;D

You said something about bunnies the other day, I'm presuming thats what you mean?

If you go on rabbitrehome there are LOADS of buns looking for new homes! O0

RE teh indoor cage, I really dont know, depends on the breed of rabbit! Always remember the vets bills are higher than a guineas will be. They need a LOT of space, and vaccinating immediately and neutering at 4 months really....they will need a big run, and if you are keeping them inside you will need to have bunny proofed the house, as they have been known to tear wallpaper off the walls, dig teh carpet (which is very dangerous) and chew any wires they can (it reminds them of vines) which risks electricution!

It look me a long time, and a lot of research before I even asked on here about bunnies, they can live for 10 years, so you really really need to think about it. They DO grow up, and be aware that a lot of the bunnies there are cross breeds, so may a lot larger than you are expecting!

If you are talking about piggies, there are lots of pigger in rescues soooooo many...so if you tell us your area etc, maybe we can ppint you in the right direction :)

2 guineas need a MINIMUM of 4' x 2' O0
 
I think as a starter a GP is a much better option than a bunny....I've had both,and IMO the piggies are easier to look after,but I did have probs with my buns teeth which meant he was at the vets every 3 months ish for dentals,which was very costly also they need vacs (2 sorts) you also have to be ultra vigilant for fly strike..I know GP's can get it but have never found piggies as dirty in that region compared to buns ,just my thoughts though :)
 
Guinea pigs seema lot easier to care for on paper, but I will soon let you know (seeing charlie tonight!) :smitten:
 
I don't mean you......Just for someone a bit younger maybe....shut up sam..you're digging yourself a hole girl ;D ;D ;D

Right..I meant for a first pet as such ;D ;D ;D ;) ;)
 
No I agree, I've had a bunny in the past (Harvey) and I find Guinea Pigs easier to look after. But I think it depends on your circumstances and family life. I can't imagine having bunnies right now what with the girls being so little. :)
 
I think its a piggy this person is after

Adopt from Anna - thats where I got my Merlin from and he is lovely :smitten:
 
Just cause they're called a rabbit rescue doesn't mean they don't take in pigs ;)

Sue had loads of young ones last time I checked O0
