About Mateo

Hola, amigo! My name is Mateo,

I'm a fabuloso little Guinea Pig, looking for my furever home! Life with me is a celebration of snacks, snuggles, and samba-style zoomies. Whether I'm shaking my fur with excitement or lounging around snacking, I'm always somewhere between fiesta and siesta. My ideal home is somewhere full of love and tasty veggies, with lots of tunnels and hidey huts to explore.
Some things to know about Guinea Pigs:
• Guinea pigs are social creatures who need the companionship of other guinea pigs.
• Guinea pigs love to run around and thrive spending time in a safe space outside when the weather is suitable.
• Guinea pigs are naturally shy so adding some tunnels and hides to their pen will help them to feel safe and settle in.
• Guinea Pigs need a fresh, daily supply of dry food, hay, veggies and water.
• Due to their size and anatomy, desexing guinea pigs is high risk and it is therefore recommended that they are kept in same sex pairs instead.

Adoption fee: $15
**Guinea pigs are not available as solo pets and must not be housed in the same pen as rabbits or chickens. You must either have existing same sex Guinea Pigs at home or adopt two a minimum of two. **
