Get it from a rescue shelter of some sort if you can! Millions of Piggy's get put to sleep everyday cuz no one wants them!
A registered breeder can give you a fantastic pedigree if you show guinea pigs.
Do not buy from a pet shop! prices are high. GO TO A SHELTER!

∙ 14y agoCheck your local pet store: petsmart is bound to have one.
You can also get on ARBA and search for cavie breeders, and pick your state.
Sometimes they are free in the paper, however you have to be cautious about that. The guinea pig may be sickly.
Hope this helps!
You can also go to a local animal rescue. There are lots of guinea pigs that need homes, and you may be able to get a pair that get along already.

You can certainly find guinea pigs in pet shelters. They are also readily available in pet stores. If you are after particular varieties, they can be purchased from proper breeders. Breeders have the long-haired or curly-haired varieties, and the "coronet" guinea pigs.
