Adoptable Indiana Guinea Pigs are Ready to Go Wee, Wee, Wee All the Way Home with You
Meet brothers Cottage Cheese and Blue Cheese, our Pets of the Week from the Vanderburgh Humane Society.
Cottage and Blue Cheese's Story
Us little piggies are ready to go wee, wee, wee all the way to your home! Hi, I’m Cottage Cheese, and I’m Blue Cheese! We’re a bonded pair of guinea pig brothers who have been at the VHS since early December. Did you know that we’re social animals and live in herds in the wild? Even though we do enjoy a good piggy party, you don’t need a large crew to keep us happy. As long as we stay together, you will find two to be plenty!
What Are Bonded Guinea Pigs?
According to The Tiny Herd, guinea pigs live in herds in the wild and "thrive when they are able to interact with other guinea pigs." That doesn't mean they can't be alone, but once they've bonded like Cottage and Blue Cheese have, it's best to keep them together.
The good news is, it won't cost you much to take both Cottage and Blue Cheese. Their adoption fee at the VHS is $50 for the pair which is a deal because the normal adoption fee for one is $30.
If you're interested in Cottage and Blue Cheese or any of the other guinea pigs, dogs, cats, or rabbits up for adoption at the Vanderburgh Humane Society, get a jump on the adoption process by filling out some of the paperwork in advance on the VHS website.
