HSTC is committed to finding loving forever homes for all our adoptable animals. These placement requirements are based on our experience with the animals while in our care. Dogs, Cats and Rabbits are up to date on vaccines, spayed/neutered and microchipped prior to their adoption.

Note from the Foster:
"Estelle Getty is a social, food motivated pig. She knows the sound of crinkling snack bags and is vocal when she hears it. The Wooly Mammoth is shy and reserved, takes a little while to come out of her shell, and very much relies on her sister for assurance that it's safe to come get snacks and be pet. Both girls love their lettuce and veggies and are pretty good about using their litter box. "
I am bonded to my Sister Estelle Getty and we'll need a home together.
The Guinea Pig, also called a cavy, is one popular pet! They are relatively easy to care for, docile and are responsive to kind and gentle handling. When handled correctly, guinea pigs enjoy being picked up and carried. They are curious critters and enjoy exploring, especially when on familiar territory. They are not as likely to investigate the world with their mouths as some of their rodent family friends but they are curious critters and enjoy exploring, especially when on familiar territory. They can also be trained to respond to tricks and, when bonded to their owner, may respond eagerly to the sound of his/her voice! Guinea pigs are social animals who prefer to live in small groups. Two or more females will become great friends. If you want two males, it's best to choose two babies from the same litter. Since guinea pigs multiply rapidly, keeping males and females together is not recommended. Just like humans, guinea pigs need to get vitamin C from their diet, so they need special food and fresh veggies. Guinea pigs can live in pairs or alone. On average, cavies weigh 2 pounds and can live 6-8 years with proper care.
