Abandoned piggies
Posted: 17 May 2014 17:03
A friend's Dad was exercising his horse, and happened to notice 3 boxes by the side of a field that looked odd, and on investigation they contained a guinea pig each, he rang my friend, who came and retrieved them.
She took them to the vet who said they where all fine - 1 girl and 2 entire boars. They where well fed and used to being handled.
My friend decided to keep them and put the girl on her own, and the two boys together - however they kept fighting, so she's managed to rehome one of the boys, and the other is being castrated next week, then he can go back in with the girl (who she hopes isn't pregnant).
It really does beggar belief that what had been well looked after pets are treated in this way...
Thankfully these 3 have had a happy ending...
