Nina

Hi, my name is Nina! Here is what would work best for me in my new home: -Personality: Curious, social, vocal -Can Live With Kids: Yes, but an adult must be her primary caregiver -Can Live With Other Guinea Pigs: Nina was surrendered for fighting with the other guinea pigs in her previous home, however guinea pigs are social creatures and should not live alone. She will need to go to a guinea pig experienced home with someone willing to properly introduce her to their resident pig(s). GUINEA PIGS SHOULD NOT LIVE ALONE. -Litter Box Trained: No -Bite History: No -Needs Medical Procedure Before Going Home: No -Additional Information: Nina will need a nice roomy cage/enclosure with daily exercise and socialization. Her diet should consist of unlimited grass hay, high quality guinea pig pellets, and fresh greens daily. She can also have the occasional guinea pig safe treat (ie. pieces of certain fruits and veggies). As mentioned above, Nina was surrendered for not getting along with the guinea pigs in her previous home. This is unfortunate because guinea pigs are super social animals and do not do well living alone. Miss Nina is going to need to go to a home with existing guinea pig(s) and a patient person who is able and willing to properly introduce them. This means Nina will need her own cage/enclosure until she has proven that she can live peacefully with the other pig(s). Experience introducing guinea pigs is a plus!
