How can I accept a guinea pig?
You usually have two options for receiving a guinea pig, also known as "caves". The first is to adopt a guinea pig from a charity of a shelter or save animals. The second is to find a owner who is no longer able to take care of his pet and ensure adoption privately. In both cases, you should arrange time with guinea pigs to understand his personality. You should also ask for a recent medical report from a veterinarian who can testify to the general health of the guinea pig. While some animal shelters only take certain types of pets, such as cats or dogs, some will also take care of small and exotic pets. If the first shelter you call does not care about guinea pigs, you should ask if they can refer you to a shelter that receives small pets. Once you find a suitable shelter, call and ask about the adoption process, it will also be able to get information about how to accept guinea pigs from the shelter by visiting the shelter web page.
Many shelters require potential adoptive to undergo a screening process before they can accept a guinea pig or other animal. This is to help ensure the well -being of the pet and that potential adoptivers are aware of their duties to the animal. You may need to undergo background checks, deliver names and contact information friends and families who can guarantee your character and may have to pay a guinea pig. In many cases, the guinea pigs will be received from an animal shelter for a thorough medical examination so that you can be informed of any health problems.
Another option is to accept the guinea pig directly from the owner. You can hear about someone who has a guinea pig for adoption, or you can find Guinea Pig through a classified advertisement published online or in newspapers. In many cases, a pet owner will not charge you a fee for adoption and can even provide you with a cage, food and other supplies. The disadvantage of this approach is that guinea pigs maybe before taking it home, maybe it was not possible to obtain a medical examination and you may not be able to obtain a sincere assessment of the health and personality of the guinea pig from the previous owner.
