View Full Version : I`m giving Thelmer away.

yes I am. I`m gonna miss her! She was my very first pet.
I guess you guys want to know why. I can`t give her all the attention she needs,and my mom and dad pay for her spaying and basically my whole family dislikes her,except for my brother and me. I love her to death but unfortunatly it`s just not gonna work. :(
After We`ve moved in our new house I`m gonna get a Guinea pig.

Oh, so sad. Wish I were closer. Did you find a home for Thelmer? Maybe house rabbit society could help, check http://rabbit.org. Sorry, sweet Thelmer, wish you could stay. And maybe someday years from now, you'll be able to have a rabbit when you're in your own place, and apply everything Thelmer has taught you to a new bunny.

That really sux rottie, but what makes you think you'll have any more time for a guinea pig then you had for Thelmer? Just curious. Also your parents will have to pay for vet for the guiea pig as well. Guiean pigs also have A totally different diet plan then Rabbits, hope you know that. Guinea pigs are also more messy and require more space and also company. Also what makes you think that your whole family is going to liek a guinea pig? this confuses me.

Maybe her family likes Guinea Pigs better and told her she could have one. It is a matter of opinion. I know my Dad would rather get me a dog than a rat. He hates rats.
what makes you think you'll have any more time for a guinea pig then you had for Thelmer?
But I am also wondering about this too.

I dought that Rotties parents will like a guinea pig more, they are more skiddish and scared of ppl, they pee aLOT!! they have to have their cage cleaned every 2 day. they have very week backs that can be very easily injured. they have a very specific diet plan. They dont like to be picked up. A rabbit is much more easy for a person to take care of, in my opinion. I love Guinea pigs so much non the less but I just dont understand why Thelmer has to leave?? Thelmer is such a good rabbit she naver did anything to anyone. A guinea pig need alot of attention and is very time consuming. they are HIGHLY social. They need to have a cage mate, or an owner that will always have time to be their for it NO MATTER WHAT!. Are you allowed to have 2 guinea pigs?

because, like rottie said, she cant give him the attention he deserves.
Rottie, I think you are doing the right thing. :( Im very sorry about this though, thats to bad. :( just make sure he gets a wonderful and loving home. many **HUGS** to you. again im sorry.
but i also dont think you should get a guine pig if you dont have time for the bunny. that just doesnt make sense. :(
I wish you much luck with all this.:(

A guinea pig is usually kept in a cage (except for supervised playtime, of course) whereas a rabbit is free to roam the house. Both are social creatures, but bunnies have different demands on a person's time than guinea pigs, and perhaps they have had guinea pigs before.
Do not criticize her for a decision (re-homing Thelmer) that is not entirely up to her, and do not make presumptions about her family's needs or situation. In the new house, things may be different, and you should give her the benefit of doubt before criticizing her tentative future choice of pet.

not all rabbits have the run of the house. some ppl house their rabbit outside in a hutch and only let them out supervised.
And I am not criticizeing, it just doesnt make sence to me.

I know that, but Thelmer, the rabbit we are talking about, is a house rabbit, and moving her to an outside hutch at this point would not be fair.

Do some research on guiena pigs and you'll see how much work they can be. I have a friend who owns one, they are so sweet and cute, but they have to be cleaned ALOT!! and they need to have a cage mate. Also they have to have vitamin suppliments and alot of vitamin C in their diet because they cannot produce it them selves.

Karen
04-20-2003, 08:44 PM
Rabbits also need a specific diet, their litter box needs cleaning - I do not think a guinea pig needs MORE care than a rabbit, every kind of pet has its own needs. That is like comparing apples and oranges. Some people may like apples better, some oranges, that doesn't mean either person is "right" or "wrong."
tikeyas_mom
04-20-2003, 10:53 PM
It is harder to care for a guinea pig face it.
you can litter trian a rabbit and you dont have to clean out their hutch or kenel as much as you have to clean out a guinea pigs. And A guinea pigs diet is WAYY more complex then a rabbits Karen. Trust me I wanted a guinea pig befor I got Angel, Then desided not to because they are too hard to care for compared to a rabbit.
Karen
04-20-2003, 11:17 PM
I disagree. You certainly should clean a rabbit's litter box as often as a guinea pig's cage, unless your piggie has a really small cage and very little litter. I think each animal has its own needs, and we can leave it at that.
tikeyas_mom
04-20-2003, 11:19 PM
I think it is a bit easier to clean a litter box then a whole cage I'd Say!
Of corse you clean the litter box, I didnt say you were not to. I just said if your rabbit was litter trained then you dont have to clean the HUTCH or KENEL as much compared to a guinea pig.
tikeyas_mom
04-20-2003, 11:22 PM
Even if a rabbit was'nt litter trianed and it lived in a hutch or kenel or cage, and peed and pooped where ever in the cage. You would still have to clean a guinea pigs cage more often then you would rabbits. because Guiena pigs pee more. Simple as that.

I am so sorry to hear about your decision about Thelmer. I know you have her best interest at heart, as much as it hurts to make the decision I think you are doing the right thing.
I have the same question about the pig though: How will you make time for a GP if you don't have time for Thelmer now? I'm not trying to criticize, you probably have something wored out already. Just curious.
Heather Wallace
04-21-2003, 06:00 AM
I agree with Tikeyas mom in a way, I am a professional per sitter and in my experiences and have also owned a piggie, piggies are more work in the toilet department.
I also think that before having an animal that the committment should be there, we can't just change animal to animal when we feel like it, A PET IS FOR LIFE! And before we buy one or rescue one we should take into consideration all aspect like cost and how much time we have for it.
This is no critisism on any particular individual, just some personal thoughts. I feel very strongly about this.
Rottie Lover - I hope you find Thelmer a good home, please, before you get a piggie, consider it and weigh up the pros and cons. Good Luck.

I have to agree with Heather...when you take on a pet ii should be for the life of that pet, not as an impulse or just because he's an amusement or an inconvenience to be later discarded. Yes, there are going to be circumstances that come up that changes things. I just hope Thelmer gets a good home. THelmer is so adorable..... If Rottie really wanted to keep him she'd find a way. Bunnies are very social, probably all he needs is a bunny companion to keep him company. I guess I'm disappointed in the casual attitude.

I don't agree that guinea pigs are more work.
Pets should be for a lifetime true, but I don't think that Rottielover has much choice in the matter b/c she is just a teenager. I don't agree with the choice, but if her parents are dead set against keeping her it isn't like she can move out.

I am so sorry you have to give up your first pet, Thelma but you can make sure she gets a new loving forever home. It can be difficult if your family won't support your pet.
Are your parents willing to support a G-Pig, even if you get problems in the future. You don't want to be put in this unpleasant situation of having to give up a beloved pet again !!
PS Adding to the debate on Rabbits v G-Pig. As Karen points out these are completely different animals with different needs. I had an outside bunny called Bonnie when I was a child and my sister was given a G-Pig called Lucky as a friend for my Bonnie. (These were years ago, when it was normal to house these animals together) I ended looking after both pets (I was the older sister) and I think they both need a similar time & energy to look after, but in different ways.
I am sure Rottieluver45 will be more than capable of looking after a G-Pig, as well as she looked after Thelma. My only concern is that her parents may end up, refusing to help with the new pet and could end up putting her back into the same situation

I'm very sorry you had to make the very difficult decision to surrender Thelmer. I'm sure it is very hard for you and hope she finds a loving home very soon.
I have never had a bunny, and so cannot make any comparison re: their care, but I do/have had guinea pigs. As with any pet, they require time, attention, love and commitment. They are HIGHLY social. friendly, gentle creatures that require their person to show them considerable one on one attention. If you cannot provide that, you must provide them with a piggie pal, but naturally not two of opposite sexes, unless one is spayed/neutered. Just walking by their cages and saying "Hi!" isn't enough. Unlike bunnies, guinea pigs can NEVER be left alone, out of their cages, to roam the house unsupervised. They require a minimum of one hour of "free floor time," real exercise, DAILY, in a safe, enclosed area, where they can be watched. (Not just "lap" time)
Unlike hamsters and other rodents, guinea pigs should never be allowed to "play" in a roller ball as their backs can be injured. They do have very weak spines, and a fall from even a small step can injure them severely.
And yes, their cages do require daily care. At a minimum, every day their "wet spots" and poops need to be scooped and replaced with fresh shavings....NEVER CEDAR! Every 2-3 days a complete change of shavings is required and once weekly, a thorough cleansing and disinfecting of their cages with a mild vinegar solution.
They are HIGHLY sensitive to direct sunlight, extremes of heat or cold and drafts as well. The diet of a guinea pig is not at all like that of a bunny and I hope you will visit one of the many excellent guinea pig forums for advice in all areas of guinea pig care before bringing one home.
They cannot produce vitamin C themselves and it must be supplemented in their diet. They are HUGE drinkers and require a fresh, full bottle of water daily and should be allowed to free feed on timothy hay (not alfalfa, unless they are babies, pregnant or ill) and a high quality, vit. C supplemented pellet... Ox Bow is an excellent brand. Their nails grow VERY quickly, and if you are unable to clip them yourself, you must take him/her to a vet to have them done every few weeks. And unlike bunnies, it may take some hunting, and driving, to find a vet experienced in piggie care.
I'd be happy to share some tips/advice should you decide to welcome a piggie into your home. And PLEASE do not buy a piggie from a pet shop. Every shelter I have ever visited has several needy piggies, at any given time, surrendered for lack of time/attention, waiting for a caring home. Good luck!

Yea, Alright I'm a sucker :rolleyes: . We've been thinking about getting Julian a freidn for about 2 or so months now. I'm not home for about 8 hours during the week days becasue I am at school. Now I always spend at least 4 hours with him every night so he does get the attention he needs but I feel bad leaving him in there all by himself for so long, so whats better then a Bunny friend?? And as many of you know Julian is Thelmers Boy friend and since he is, it is his Duty to keep her safe. :D :p My dad has not completly said yes yet, but he sounds like he wants to, and is goign to. I'm not to sure about here mom. We will need Help gettting Thelmer from Texas to Pennsylvania (sp). So if this all does end up happening and she comes to live with us we may need some pet talk drivers :D

Thanks for the update, Rottie. Take care.:)
As for the Guinea Pig vs. Rabbit thing, I think it depends on the individual animals. Some Guinea Pigs may require more care than some rabbits, or some Rabbits may require more care than some Guinea Pigs, like pets who have special needs or illnesses.

I agree that a rabbit that has a bad illness will require be more care then a healthy guinea pig, of corse. But a HEALTHY guinea pig that is not potty trained will require more care then a house trained rabbit.
luckies4me
04-21-2003, 08:59 PM
I don't think guinea pigs require more care than rabbits. Every type of animal has specific needs. For example, angora rabbits needs daily brushing, house rabbits need daily litter box cleaning, skinny pigs need to be kept warm, silkies need to be combed etc. I have had both gp's and rabbits and I found them the same to care for. If you spot clean the gp's cage you will only need to do a thorough disinfection every week. Spot cleaning their cages would require the same amount of time that dumping out a little box would, or scooping it.
And guinea pigs CAN be litter trained, mine were and they were very good at going in the right place. Yes they have a specific diet, but so does every animal. Cats need taurine, piggies need Vitamin C. My piggies were also very cuddly and would hang out and watch tv with me all the time. They had their own "pet" room which was safe for unsupervised playtime, another words things were coated and the only thing they could chew was the carpet. ;) Of course I was with them most of their free time, but if I had to leave the room I knew they would not get in trouble.
I really think it is unfair for someone to say that one needs more upkeep than the other, as it has been my experience they are pretty much the same. Both need love, attention, good food and fresh water and out time.

Thanks to all of you who are supporting my daughter's decision to give Thelmer to someone who can take better care of her. It was not an easy decision for her, and I am very proud of her for being grown up enough to make a decision that most adults have a hard time making. :)
I've already told Rottie I'd help with the transport if it happens, but if Ash can't take Thelmer, I can maybe come pick her up and take her back to rescue here? Just another option you guys can keep in the back of your head if you need it :)

I'm so sorry to hear about this. :( I really hope you take a lot of time in finding her a *good* home, as with the Easter/spring season I bet there's a lot of people that would take home a "cute bunny" for their kids. It'd be great if something could be worked out with some Pet Talkers here...I wish you the best of luck.
Although I also don't see how someone could have time for a g.pig but not a bunny....I don't see how Tikeyas_mom can be any sort of "expert" on the matter....or any matter involving pets. :rolleyes: Each individual pet has individual needs, you really can't compare an entire species to another like that, especially since there are different types of bunnies and g. pigs too.

It is very refreshing to see "Mom" intervening here. If you all think it is best for Thelmer to find a new home, then I support you totally. I know that you will make sure she is going to a place where she will get the attention she deserves to have.
We Pettalkers are a mighty passionate bunch, and sometimes our reactions are based on the written word and it's hard to understand giving up one and adding another so quickly. I'm sure you will all think through your decisions very carefully.
Sandra, who is the BEST furry mom I know, has provided some good insight on Guinea Pig care, so I hope you will take that information and use it when deciding whether to add a "piggie" to your home.
Best of luck.

Thelmer, you cute furry bundle of trouble, I wish you all the best in finding a new furever home. Hopefully, Miss Ashley and Mister Julian will be able to welcome you into their lives.
Rottieluver, while I can't say I'm exuberant over your choice, I think it is wise and fair to Thelmer. I applaude you on being so grown up about the situation. I wish I were in a position that I could take her--but that's not possible at this point in time. I would like to offer some "food for thought"...
1. It's nearing the big Easter "throw away" ie. shelters are soon going to be filling up fast with unwanted "easter bunnies." I BEG YOU (with tears in my eyes) TO PLEASE (if Ash is unable to take her) consider taking Aly up on her offer. I know Aly works at a cat/dog shelter but she has ties to the bunny shelter located in Austin. She might have some pull into getting Thelmer in if all cages are full. And on that note, if Ash is unable to take her, get her to the shelter ASAP while there is still available space.
2. (again if Ash is unable to take her) PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not 'advertise' her as FREE. Charge a fee, $15.00 or so. If you run a "free" ad (and I don't mean to be harsh but I'm telling the truth) you might as well advertise her as food --either snake* or human. (Unfortunatly, there was a case not long ago of a shelter filling up on bunnies...they began to give them away... this was put to a stop when the shelter found out the bunnies were for human consumption).
I so wish I were able to help you out!!! But right now, my hands are tied. If you need help transporting (yes, I know NM is the opposite direction of TX/PA) please, please let me know.
Best of luck to you, Thelmer, and all involved.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
*Yes, I realize snakes must eat too. But from Rottieluver's point of view, I don't think she wants to see her bunny in that situation.

Squeezed what he wanted me to do in order to help him think harder about Thelmer. Hee hee. It was a very easy thing to :D . All I had to do was clean both of my bedrooms. I cleaned bedroom 2 first because there was only a sock on the floor, lol. Then I cleaned Julians room. Which took me 2 hours. I had to scrub the carpet, get the cages in order, clean up from the box I gave Julian earlyer, take the carpet outta my closet, clean up the hay that was all over my room (lol), do some laundry, wash my bed sheets, clean his litter boxes and I was done :D . Now, I have to keep Bedroom 2 in order, like no clothes on the floor or anything and it still has to look like a "Guest" Bedroom even though I sleep in there. And I have to keep my room a little bit cleaner then it was. So hopefully tomrrow my dad will tell me yes or no. He likes to think about things for awile, I just hope he had a good thinkin time while he was away this week. :D
Ash :D

It is ok, I actully dont recall you personally blowing up on me though lol. I am used to it though lol. I speak my mind to much I think *giggle* but I am a nice person.
well, maybe u could transport Thelmer on plane? but that would be risky because they treat live luggage as well luggage .. So maybe you guys could meet half way?? Good luck though
