About Stripes
ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS -- BONDED PAIR - GENTLE MATURE CHILDREN OR GUINEA PIG EXPERIENCED FAMILY -- LARGE INDOOR ENCLOSURE (PHOTOS MUST BE PROVIDED AT TIME OF APPLICATION)
Stripes and Snuggles were very much loved by their previous owner who had to surrender them due to a sad change in their circumstances. These adorable pair of brothers love each other and need a large indoor enclosure, as they have always lived indoors and been a central part of the family. They may be shy at first, but once settled they will come out to check if you have treats, will accept pats and sit on your lap for a 'veggie and cuddle session'. Stripes is the more confident of the two and is particularly fond of having the top of his head scratched. These boys love their veggies (in addition to hay and guinea pig pellets) and it is definitely the key to winning their trust! In foster care they have enjoyed eating cos lettuce, capsicum, carrot, kale, Chinese broccoli, pak choy, cherry tomatoes, coriander, baby corn and baby cucumber (the favourite!). Being guinea pigs who are generally nervous animals, it is important that they have a patient human who will give them daily gentle and consistent handling and interaction to see their true, delightful personalities.
