He's very handsome. If you take him or not, Mr. Demus 625, I hope things work out best for the little boy.

What a handsome guy. I hope everything works out with your piggie family and that this gorgeous fellow is home with you soon.

My Izzy came to me in a similar fashion. She was so sick I did not think she was going to make it. She is now my cuddliest pig and I swear she smiles all the time. Until she came into my life, I had no idea that guinea pigs could grin.

I spoke to our vet today and she seriously almost made me cry. I asked her about iPig and she sounded really excited about the prospect of us adopting him. However her recommendation was that if we do, he is solo pig. She mentioned that all the testing they'd done on his eye had come back chlamydia free BUT to be of the safe side she said to keep him separate which the way we are planning cage renovations wouldn't be a problem. He'd still be "around" the other but not in contact. Plus since he's intact we don't want him around Plumps. I'm going to call Ashley tomorrow and let her know we are taking him. Just need to wait until we get Beezles lab work back.

Why did she recommend keeping him apart? We've had pigs that had confirmed chlamydia in their eyes and after treatment we paired them with 'normal' pigs with no problem.

She was worried about transmission since it still isn't clear what is wrong with his eye.

My Scooter who has passed away pretty recently had a recurring eye problem. After an xray the vet thinks his face may have been broken at some time and it was causing eye/nasal drainage that wouldn't stop. I had to give eye drops daily but he had good quality of life despite that.

Good luck if IPig comes home with you. It sounds like he's a sweetheart already.

Thank you for rescuing him--I would absolutely consider this a rescue! Even though he is a solo pig, it will be the right thing. All he really needs is your love.
