Alfred was rescued from a trash bin in a cage with 3 rabbits...in the accumilation of weeks of their own filth...their feet. were rotting off.....Alfred had no hair because the rabbits had nibbled it off. One rabbit wasn't able to be saved...the urine burns were so bad and infection overcame it. As you can see, now...Alfred isa handsome and typically funny Guinea Pig, so happy to be alive and well and cared for. Just so happens, March is Adopt-a-Rescued Guinea Pig Month. at the ASPCA.
