How do I responsibly rehome my guinea pig for adoption?

I am sorry that you cannot keep Ashley. You might start by calling the local animal shelter or animal rescue groups. If they do not take guinea pigs, you can ask them if they have any other groups that they can recommend to you. I found one that looks like it may be out of Lewisville, Texas. http://www.theguineapigrescue.com/surrendering

Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This must have been a pretty difficult decision to make, but I'm sure Pistol appreciates you being responsible and trying to get him the best care possible. Most shelters will take in guinea pigs, especially if they come with a cage and food. I hope this helps and wish you and Pistol well!

So sorry but this is not what this service is for. If you want to surrender a guinea pig you need to contact your local Petco store. They may or may not accept him. I don't know what their policy is on that. You can also try to contact the local humane society as they often accept them. You may also want to contact one of these rescues to see if they can help you. http://www.onlineguineapigcare.com/guinea-pig-rescue-shelters-ohio/ Hope this helps.

Absolutely YES!! I cannot see any reason why they should allow you to post an ad! Let's find Rango an home.. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

We can certainly try. Post again with your question, just know that we legally cannot provide a diagnosis or medication in the absence of a physical exam and a VPCR (veterinarian-patient-client relationship). You may need to find a veterinarian to examine Buddy. Most veterinarians will examine small pets. If a specialist is needed, they can refer you to one or seek a consultation with a specialist. The larger veterinary reference labs have specialists on staff for consultations by practicing veterinarians.

Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Sorry to hear that you are considering giving away your cats. I would advise contacting your vet office and see if they can help you place them. They often have a list of clients seeking pets. Other avenues would involve your local humane society, pet rescue groups, etc. These groups often screen potential adopters and would be a great resource. I know this is very tough for you, but if you get the right people involved, everyone will feel better in the end knowing that they were placed into good homes. Good luck

If you're having trouble affording veterinary care this site may help give you some ideas to make it more affordable for you, or to find a free or low cost clinic: http://www.humanesociety.org/animals/resources/tips/trouble_affording_veterinary_care.html -- Some clinics and shelters will also have angel funds that provide for the cost of a basic exam and treatment at no cost to you, so asking around your local area may help. Ideally you'd get the piggies a vet visit along with a deworming depending on the type of worms they have. However if you absolutely can't care for them, afford dewormer, or they continue to worsen, then surrendering to a local shelter may be best.
