Look at these three precious boys in Penacook, NH, which is about 65 miles from you. It would take you a little more than an hour to get there.

There are seven pigs within a reasonable distance that you could take home %26 love. Go for it!
Talking about guinea pigs right?
do you have a petco or petsmart around you?
they sell them all younger then 6 monthes old for about $32.99
thats where I got my lil' Ellie =)
go to a petstore then
open one then!
Well, PLEASE DO NOT BUY A GUINEA PIG AT A PETSTORE!!!! A friend of mine bought a guinea pig at a petstore (petco I think) and she got very sick within a few weeks of my friend having her. She died, and it was really, really hard for my friend to cope. Also, petstores are usually inaccurate when it comes to the sex of the guinea pig.
Did you check www.petfinder.com? This is a great website, and I hope that the piggies there are close to where you live. Just put in your zip code and you should get a list of piggies that need rescuing. If at all possible, you should get 2. Guinea pigs are very social animals that would do better with companions. I have 3 guinea pigs that love each other to death (that doesn't mean that they don't occasionally fight!)
For some great info. on guinea pig rescuing and care, check out these websites:
www.cavyspirit.com
www.cavycages.com
I use them all the time, and cavycages even gave me great ideas on how to build my guinea pigs a great cage. Good luck, and I hope you get your piggie!
Ok, DO NOT go to petsmart. My friend bought a ginnie and a hamster there and they have diseases!! Go on ebay, and look up buying guinea pigs. If somone is selling one online they would come to your house to drop it off, or you would go to pick it up. Actually any online store you can go on. Good luck!
Justified did a lot of great research for you! Contact the people or shleters that she found for you. If you are serious about adopting they may even consider meeting you halfway or bringin the pig to your house (most rescues like to do a home visit anyway.)
Those are all adorable pigs near you that need you to give them a great home!!
