We realise not everyone is in a position to adopt a companion, so why not take a look at our
virtual adoption scheme …..
Raffa came in with his brother when they were three months old. Their owner contacted us for help as she, and her daughter, were very allergic to them; despite trying everything they couldn’t get on top of it. Unfortunately, the brothers started fighting so had to be separated. We’ve since had them neutered and Raffa is now ready for a new start with a female (or a few) for company!
Fosterer’s update:
Raffa is a very cute Rex guinea pig with short, fuzzy fur. He’s white apart from black markings on his face and a round black patch on his back. He’s extremely curious and loves climbing on anything he can find in his run. He can still be nervous but, with regular handling, he will continue to become more tame and confident. UPDATE FEBRUARY : Raffa has come on really well. He’s now very comfortable being picked up from his run and happily sits on my knee while being stroked. He’s very calm, relaxed, and gently squeaks.
Male guinea pigs require a MINIMUM 6 X 2 foot indoor C and C Enclosure. The more space the better!
