ahh there lovely the top ones the same colour as my boar but hes a crested. Id love more but we are in rented at the mo and it was bad enough finding a place which would allow the pigs and dog. Hope they find new loving homes very soon.

pics of the 10 Boars we have in at the moment.
These Boars have always been together and get along well so could be rehomed in any pair

Re: Piggy rescue north cumbria and gretna

Hi, I am looking for an older gp, preferably 4 or over, due to wanting to convert the 'piggy room' into a nursery in a couple of years.

I live in Essex but am willing to travel nationwide! Just lost our gp to piggy heaven and he was rescued from Lancashire (8 hours of driving for him, but worth every bit)

With regards to Cumbria, would be happy to spend a weekend at Center Parcs and bring a pig home on the way back!

Let me know if you have any older pigs.

Regards
Sam

Re: Piggy rescue north cumbria and gretna

There are many many rescues, but you wouldn't believe how hard it is to find an older pig!

I a currently waiting to hear from two 4 year old sows from the RSPCA website so fingers crossed. One is in Somerset and one is in Hampshire so not too bad!

I've never kept more than one guinea at a time before, could you advise if they will be ok together, even though they have never met?

you could try guineapig rehome its a site for guinea pigs looking for homes in all areas.

There is no guarentee they will get along,some of my own sows hate eachother and even though they have lived in cages side by side they will fight if they met.
Most rescues let people take their GP to the rescue to choose a friend,I do it all the time so that people get a good match.
Is there a reason you want another older one?You often find an older GP will accept a young GP much better
