* Let us know how much you know about guinea pigs as pets and why you think they are a good fit for your family and/or lifestyle.
I understand that guinea pigs are small, fragile pets that may not be suitable for children under 12 or inexperienced owners. As prey animals, they can be shy and generally do not enjoy being picked up or carried for long periods. They can bite or scratch or be severely injured if not handled correctly.
Do you rent or own your home?
Do you live alone?

I understand that the guinea pigs cannot stay in their enclosure all of the time and will need “floor time” to run around for mental stimulation and exercise.
Guinea pigs need to be housed and kept indoors. Do you agree to keep your guinea pigs indoors at all times?
I understand that guinea pigs are exotic animals and require specialized veterinary care and that I will need to have adequate funds to be able to provide for his/her medical needs; such as annual wellness exams and any medical care s/he may need.
Are you willing to ensure your guinea pig(s) remains healthy by taking them to an experienced exotic veterinarian every year for a annual exam with bloodwork?
Which exotic veterinarian are you planning to use?
Have you called to confirm that they see rabbits and are accepting new clients?
