Guinea Pig Rescue

PLEASE CROSSPOST

Hi, I am located in Connecticut and have a guinea pig rescue.  Two
situations have arisen and we could use some help.  I know that many of you
are busy with cats, dogs, and other critters but if you have room or know
anyone that wants to foster please contact myself or Amy at
amiableanimals at nycap.rr.com.

Back in the spring 240 (numbers growing because of pregnant females) guinea
pigs were seized and are part of a cruelty case.  214 of these have been
released and need to move ASAP.  Just the other day 150 (numbers growing
because of pregnant females) guinea pigs were removed from a farm in New
York where they were kept in a barn and allowed to breed.  These guinea
pigs need to be placed immediately.  6 weeks ago there was another owner
surrender of guinea pigs to the SPCA in Concord New Hampshire.  Count at
this moment is 52 and still growing.  All of the New Hampshire pigs have
been placed between 4 rescues, myself included.  Now we need to help these
almost 500 guinea pigs and still leave room in our rescues for the local
ones.

If anyone has room and can help please contact us or if anyone can foster
please let us know.  Also we are in desperate need of cages, hay, bedding
and fresh veggies.  Any help at all will be very much appreciated.

Thank you!!!!
