Black Jack and Stitch — Petraits Rescue
Black Jack and Stitch are a pair of best friend male smooth coat guinea pigs looking for a loving guardian together.
These boys came to Friends of Petraits Rescue when their family became allergic to them.
I don’t think they handled them much due to their allergies, so Black Jack and Stich will need a dedicated and confident guinea pig-lover to play with and socialize them daily to get them accustomed to handling. They do not bite … they just run fast.
Guinea pigs eat a diet of unlimited timothy and orchard hays – in fact, hay should be 80 percent of their diet. They can have limited pellets, and fresh vegetables including romaine, red leaf and green leaf lettuces, cilantro, carrots, and a tiny bit of fruit as a treat: oranges, apples, 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 people who will handle them daily, keep them well fed, and keep their habitat nice and clean.
If you’re interested in meeting and possibly adopting Black Jack and Stitch, please contact friendsofpetraits@gmail.com for an adoption application.
They are being fostered in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood.
Their adoption fee of $60 benefits the Friends of Petraits Rescue.
For an additional $75, we’ll include a large cage 17” x 40”, and everything you need to care for them including hay, litter, food, hidey hut and water bottle.
