In August 2008, I was grieving the loss of a beloved guinea pig friend. It was then that I stumbled upon Edgar! I found him on Petfinder, where he had been taken in by a shelter (Judge's Park) in PA after having been abused and neglected. He had been malnourished, and no one had taken the time to comb and brush his long hair - he had been left caked in hair mats and his own urine and feces.
The moment I saw his smiling face and wild hair on the Judge's Park web posting, I knew he was coming to live with me and be my forever friend. I drove to PA to pick him up and it has been a wonderful year together! He has gained a whole pound! In addition, he loves to snuggle, enjoys running and exercising with toys while in his playpen, chirps happily when having his wild & wonderful hair brushed and even gives kisses! He is such a happy and gentle soul - I just love him!
