He
looks pretty placid in this picture, but Lucky is like a two-pound
puppy in a guinea pig body. Lucky is a rescue pet who spent many weeks
in a shelter that wasn't well equipped to deal with small animals. He
had been turned in by someone who was misinformed about both his age and
his sex, so he clearly didn't have the best start in life. It took
quite a while to win his confidence but now he is a very happy, curious
and vocal guinea pig. When the family is about he free-ranges, and
trained himself to use his cage as a potty. He likes to play "chase" --
show him a small piece of his favorite treat and he will chase you
around the room for it. He also loves to be brushed -- if you show him
his brush or say "where is your brush" he starts purring. And, if you
sit cross-legged on the floor, he jumps on your lap to get his favorite
treats. Lucky successfully underwent bladder stone surgery last Spring,
so we know he is a survivor.
Lucky wants to remind you - whenever possible rescue, adopt and rehome.
