Pets in need of homes
Gigi and Posty — Petraits Rescue
Gigi and Posty are a pair of companionable guinea pigs looking for loving guardian together. Gigi is a two-year-old agouti grey and white crested or crowned guinea pig; her friend Posty is a one-year-old Abyssinian tri-color guinea pig.
These girls get along well and share a large cage full or hay and fun things to eat and play with.
They make fabulous whistles, squeaks, wheeks and pops – Especially when they hear their food coming.
Guinea pigs eat a diet of unlimited Timothy hay or Orchard hay – in fact, hay is 75 percent of a guinea pig’s diet. They also eat limited pellets, and fresh greens and veggies including romaine, red leaf and green leaf lettuces, cilantro, parsley, carrots, cucumbers, oranges, apples, bell peppers, etc.
Please read up on guinea pig care and diet before adopting by visiting this excellent web site http://www.guinealynx.info/.
They would love a home with a family who will handle them daily, keep them well fed, and keep their habitat nice and clean. They love to come out of their cage daily for supervised exercise around the house and to be held.
If you’re interested in meeting and possibly adopting Gigi and Posty, please contact [email protected] for an adoption application.
They are being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
Their adoption fee of $70 as a pair benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue. For an additional $100, we’ll include a kit of everything you need to care for them including a large cage, hay, litter, food, treats, hidey hut and water bottle.
