Where is the best place to get a couple of guinea pigs? Do i rehome out of the paper as there are loads that need homes? Pet shop?
 
alot of members on this forum have rescues, maybe you could look in the rescue section :)
 
I would go to a rescue. There are lots of them that post on here. If not, get one from the free ads in the paper, but make sure it is one that is rehoming their pigs for a genuine reason. Dont buy from the breeders, or people who have let their pigs breed to make some cash. Rescuing is much nicer. You love them a ton more and feel you have done a good deed. Its very rewarding.

I wouldnt even think about going to a pet shop anymore, as everytime somebody I know gets an animal from a shop it turns out to be ill, or the wrong sex.

Good luck finding your perfect pigs!
 
Definatly reccomend going to a rescue,we are all full to bursting :(
If you let us know what area you are in we could point you in the right direction
 
i would go to a rescue personally i have had all for of my piggies from a pet shop and would never get them again from there (they couldnt even tell the sex of my piggies) :(
 
Anna (cavylover) is in southampton and she had the 100+ ..... :)
 
Its up to you where you get your guineas from Weather its a petshop,rescue or a breeder that is your for you to decide :) I have 4 adopted rescue piggies, two where brought from a farm shop one from a friend who had a surprise litter and one from a breeder.

Welcome to the forum :)
