Hey everyone. I am afraid that McMac and Sprout need to find a new home while I am away for Uni. I need someone guinea pig savy and that I can trust and keep in contact with.

They come with everything they need. Fleece, towels, C&C grids, toys, hay etc all of that. They are both very friendly and lovely boys. Srout is coming up to a year old soon and McMac will be 4 later in the summer. I will be able to pay for everything I can, like food, hay and toys etc.

McMac is very comfortable and relaxed around most things, he barely every runs and hides unless there is a very sudden loud noise lol. He is alright with being picked up and loves a good head rub. Always at the front of the cage wheeking for treats and stuff :) Sprout is still a little more nervous, doesn't like being touched a lot but I am sure he will relax more as he gets older. Both happy little pigs and they get on very well. Barely, if any, bickering and moodiness between them. They will miss each other if separated and Sprout has managed to get through C&C grids when I tried separate them when McMac was ill. They currently live in a 4x2 C&C and they seem very happy in that size.

McMac suffered from a bladder stone and had to have an operation last month, and is still recovering from it all. So someone with experience with bladder pigs would be best suited.

Umm what else...Oh George said he will be will be happy to drive them anywhere that isn't too far up North to take them to a suitable home if need be.

I think that is everything. McMac is still recovering so I would like to do what I can while he is still here and at home.

Good luck finding a good foster home for these two lovelies, they're beauts. I'm very glad that I can live at home during Uni! I love the little stuffed animals hanging on their cage btw.

Thank you, I feel so horrible and upset that I can't be with them, but it's for the best. I am moving all the way to London and will probably be in halls or something. With all the stress of Uni work etc it would probably be nice for them to be with someone with a bit more time on their hands, and possibly with a garden haha. And it would be a little easier on me too.

Oh and thank you, they are from McDonalds happy meals :red
 
All the best in finding a foster home for your beautiful boys. It must be very hard to do this.
 
How long would you require the fostering for ?

It must be horrible to make this sort of decision ! :(
 
Little eskimo I beleive you were thinking of going to York, if so you'd be pretty close to me and id happily, potentially, foster piggies :-)
 
I am heading to London for Uni but George will be happy to drive them anywhere, as long as it is not too much of a drive. Luckily his new car is great of fuel.

It would be either be September through to Mayish and then I could take them back for the summer or it could be for the whole 3 years. Depending. I know it's a lot to ask of someone but I never imagined that I would ever be going to uni and I just want to make sure they are with someone who knows how to take car of them and look after them. I don't really trust my family to do it properly.
