Last week, five different owners gave up their guinea pigs. And whether it is because of the holidays that are almost here or whether it is just a coincidence... Four owners indicated when they brought their animals that there was no longer time or interest for the guinea pigs.
The guinea pigs themselves didn't really agree on this. After all, there is nothing wrong with them! We welcomed three male duos. Fortunately, they were all in good health, so hopefully they can soon move to a nice owner where they can stay for the rest of their lives.
The third couple was a trio of two old ladies of almost 7 years old and their two-year-old friend. We named them Bibi, Benthe and Babette. We have welcomed them several times as holiday guests, so they are no strangers to us. We already knew about Benthe's wobbly head, which has never been stable again after a serious ear infection a long time ago. Fortunately, she herself is not bothered by it. Because of the age of Bibi and Benthe and because all three of them are a super nice addition to the shelter, they continue to live in the shelter.
And we welcomed eight super cute girls! They were given up due to private circumstances. The ladies are all healthy and not too old. After consultation with the former owner, we decided to rehome the two sisters Pepper and Salt together, and we have housed the other six girls together for now. However, they will be separately coupled to lonely guinea pigs from owners who are looking for a new friend via our shelter.
