Pets in need of homes

Buddy — Petraits Rescue

Buddy is a one-year-old male, tri-color smooth coat guinea pig looking for loving guardian.

Buddy lived with a family that had a dozen guinea pigs and the males started fighting amongst each other. So, even though guinea pigs usually have a partner, Buddy is on his own.

Buddy is a sweet guinea pig who is easy to pick up and hold.

Guinea pigs eat a diet of unlimited Timothy hay (or Orchard hay if you have allergies), limited pellets, and fresh greens including romaine, red leaf and green leaf lettuces, cilantro, etc. And, since guinea pigs like humans can’t manufacture their own vitamin C, so he needs daily red pepper or some other form of Vitamin C.

Please read up on guinea pig care and diet before adopting by visiting this excellent web site http://www.guinealynx.info/.

He would love a home with a family who will handle him daily, keep him well fed, and keep his habitat nice and clean.

If you’re interested in meeting and possibly adopting Buddy, please contact [email protected].

He is being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.

His adoption fee of $30 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. For an additional $50, we’ll include a starter kit of everything you need to care for him including cage, hay, litter, food, hidey hut and water bottle.
