PORTLAND The Oregon Humane Society has taken in more than 250 guinea pigs from an overwhelmed Lane County resident, the nonprofit said Wednesday.
The guinea pigs were taken to the Humane Society in Portland, where they will receive care and any necessary medical treatment, according to the nonprofit. Staffers and volunteers will care for them until they’re ready for adoption.
The timeline for their adoption will be announced in the coming days, the Humane Society said.
The Humane Society worked with Greenhill Humane Society and Lane County Animal Services to help the guinea pigs’ owner. The nonprofit didn’t detail why the owner became overwhelmed.
