About Rocket
Hi my names Rocket!
I am a friendly guy, but can be bossy when around other piggies initially. Once I've thrown my weight around a little I do settle down though, I just like to be the King! As Guinea Pigs are very social animals I will need to be rehomed with an existing piggie (preferably a female).
I will need a setup where I can be housed separately from other piggie's for the first few weeks while we all adjust (alongside where I can see and hear them but not get to them!)
I am a little nervous and shy of new people and like to hide, so I am looking for a family who will give me the that extra time it will take that will allow me to settle in and enjoy your company.
Like most Guinea Pigs, I don't like being picked up and carried around for long period of time. Some daily gentle handling will help me gain confidence. Having me indoors makes me a part of the family, and I'm more likely to trust humans and become a happy little Guinea pig.
I love my food wether it’s hay, pellets, grains or vegetables. My favourite is fresh vegetables and l am learning to share. Guinea pigs make wonderful pets and like all other animals they need lots of room to run and play and most enjoy human interaction once they feel safe with their people.
