Pet of The Week: Guinea Pig Sisters Panda and Sakura

Every Thursday Kathryn from Connecticut Humane Society joins the show to tell us about another pet that needs a home.

This week we have guinea pigs, Panda and Sakura!

  • Panda is a 1-year-old female smooth hair guinea pig. She’s the black and white guinea pig pictured. 
  • Sakura is a 1-year-old female Abyssinian guinea pig (her hair is a little fluffier than Panda’s) and she’s the brown and Chestnut guinea pig pictured 
  • They both came from another Connecticut rescue just after Christmas who needed a hand finding these cuties a new home. Before that, their previous owner had developed allergies and was no longer able to keep them 
  • They are both great little guinea pigs who enjoy being picked up and cuddled. 
  • They are a bonded pair which means that they love each other so much they must go home together. 
  • Guinea pigs are relatively easy to care for once you know how. They are curious critters who love to explore, and they can even be trained to respond to tricks! 
  • They’re both available out of our Westport location so you can fill out an online adoption application to come and meet them.
