Breeds: Abyssinian Guinea Pigs (I believe, I don't actually have any verification other than their appearance)
Age: 1-year-old
Price: Free, you just need to be able to collect them and transport them with their belongings
Condition: Healthy
Location: Stellenbosch, Die Boord
Reason: Leaving the country
Shipping: No
Collection: Required
With me leaving the country at the end of the month, this is a bit short notice and I wish to find a loving home to take care of my girls in my stead.
I'm also hoping that by making collection required that only someone who's close enough would be able to collect them to minimize their stress during the trip.
Odds are, you will likely need an entire vehicle dedicated to transporting all of the goods.
Adoption includes:
2 Guinea Pigs
Cage accessories (food, water, hay containers. 2 hidies)
Cages
cleaning supplies
Remaining food supply (current stock is about 4kg remaining)
Remaining hay supply (current stock is about 2kg remaining)
Blankets for flooring (3 blankets unused)
Pillows for the corner (2 pillows unused, and 1 in the cage)
Feel free to sell the additional equipment if you don't feel like you have a use for it. I just want my girls to have a good home.
Name: Drumstick
Colours: Brown and Black
Sex: Female
Traits: Only has 1 eye, is partially blind in the eye as well. Has been this way since birth. Very affectionate and really likes scratches on the mid-back. Sight problems do not affect her day-to-day. When scratched too far on her lower back she will look for something to chew to cope with it as she's a bit ticklish.
Name: Mash Potato
Colours: White and Brown
Sex: Female
Traits: Very shy and really likes being scratched on or behind her head, but is EXTREMELY ticklish on her rear and will run away when touched. Will sometimes cry a bit when drumstick gets too close to her back as she doesn't like being touched there. Likes to sleep in her poop for some reason.
Combined traits:
As prey animals, Guinea pigs do not enjoy the act of being picked up, but once picked up they calm down
Neither will ever bite unless put in situations of extreme stress, which should never occur if they're handled with care.
They have grown accustomed to fresh greens along with their normal food and hay daily. Once in the morning and once in the evening. Normally a fistful of greens will be good enough for both of them per portion.
Partially toilet trained, rather they have toilet habits that can be accommodated for. More likely to use the bathroom somewhere that has a roof or is an angled edge. Also, more likely to use the bathroom when closer to their water.
3 Cages and 1 carry case.
Values are approximate
Cage 1 (Old): 50CM x 90CM x 45CM (First cage they had when babies, seen in the last image)
Cage 2 (Main): 65CM x 120CM x 55CM (Seen in first image)
Cage 3 (Modular): 1.2M x 1.2M x 0.6M (Small mesh Play Pen for very small Pets. | | Pet Creations) A play pen that allows them to play outside and somewhere indoors without endangering your cables.
Carry case: It's a cat carry case that I use for trips to the vet every 3 months for a checkup. Also useful when trying to clean their cage.
