Over 400 guinea pigs were found in a home in South Los Angeles under overcrowded conditions, many suffering from medical issues. Some guinea pigs were found dead, and the others lacked food and proper care. The Southern California Guinea Pig Rescue is seeking public support for fostering or adopting the animals and donations for medical supplies. The situation was alarming, as initial assessments by local animal services claimed the guinea pigs were healthy, revealing a disparity in evaluations of their living conditions.
Volunteers discovered over 400 guinea pigs in South Los Angeles under "unsanitary and overcrowded" conditions, with some animals dead and many suffering from health issues.
The guinea pigs lacked adequate food and water, reliant on corn husks, while the rescue team's priority was to evaluate health and find responsible homes.
Despite an initial assessment from a Los Angeles Animal Services lieutenant declaring the guinea pigs healthy, the conditions revealed by volunteers contradicted that evaluation.
The Southern California Guinea Pig Rescue is seeking public assistance for fostering, adopting, or donating for medical support and supplies for the rescued animals.
