Joe, the Pet of the Day
Name: Joe
Age: Unknown
Gender: Male
Kind: Guinea Pig
Home: Alabama, USA
 
   I'm Joe, and I was rescued from the Animal Shelter. The people that turned me in, brought me in a cardboard box. The shelter only had a small bird cage to keep me in. Just as I thought all was lost, my furever Mom came along. She had other guinea pigs so she had extra cages. She now had four boys in separate cages. The girls were together, but boys, even brothers, sometime fight. Mom took us boys to the Cat and Bird Vet Hospital to be neutered. Pets like us need to go to a special vet that knows about guinea pigs.

    When we got back home, Mom put my cage near Wendy and Patches. They are small like me. She let me watch them for a few days until I recovered from my operation. Then she put us all together. I am so happy with my girlfriends. We get along just fine. They will even share a sniggle tent with me.

    The moral of this story is to "never give up"! I went from being so frightened of the barking dogs at the shelter, to being one grateful piggie with a nice home, plenty of food and two beautiful girls to love me. Who could ask for anything more?
