    1. Nikki, I have guinea pigs that I have been trying to find homes for. They are all female, but they are beautiful. I go to pet stores sometimes and see other ones and think that my Piggies are so much cuter. I have 3 black ones that really need to stay together because it’s a mom and 2 of her daughters. I have one that is not associated with the others that is reddish color, but has a little longer hair. Let me know if you are still interested in getting one. I promise you they are the cutest I have seen!

I can provide our enclosure, igloos, bowls and water bottles, etc.
