Alfalfa

Meet Alfalfa

Meet Alfalfa! This sweet 9 month old guinea pig and his brother Clark are looking for their forever home! These two boys are still settling into the shelter life, and have been a bit shy. They are slowly coming out of their shells and showing us their loving personalities. They love to eat greens, hay, and veggies together, and hope their new home has lots of fresh produce they can eat!

If you think you are a good fit and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed.

*Before coming to the adoption center, we ask that you have a housing unit ready, in case you end up finding an animal you’d like to adopt. Guinea pigs need a minimum 6.5 sqft wire cage (30”x36”) for 1-2 guinea pigs but preferably 10.5 sqft (30”x50”) for 2 guinea pigs and a minimum 8 sqft for 3 guinea pigs but preferably 13 sqft (30”x62”). Cages must have a solid bottom and more room is always encouraged!

Many housing units sold in pet stores are too small for the behavioral needs of Guinea Pigs. If you looking to purchase housing, visit our web page for recommendations on the best housing for small animals.
