is anyone going to york? Could possibly pick me up some rescue piggies?

Let me just check my calendar, I'm out and about all over next week. :thumbsup:

Thanks hun. Got a rather distressing email saying if these piggies were not collected ASAP they would be fed to other animals, so you see my urgency

Sorry baileys_mum. I'm in Leeds, Bristol, Stoke and Chester. But no York on there. :(
Surely there must be someone out there that can help? I wonder if you put it somewhere else in the forum it might attract the attention of a travelling forummer.

Yeah but where?

Good point, is it General discussions people post things like that?
If you can get them from York to Leeds I will bring them back to Sheff for you. I would travel the extra bit but would need to get back to Sheff asap for either work or the horse.
I know it's a long shot. I am there Monday morning and Friday lunchtime.

Ok, I will see what I can do. Hate not having a car

pm'd sooz and also put it on general forum

Will post on RR for you. Try www.guineapigrehome.org.uk in the mean time.

Are we talking little and fluffy or pink and oinky?

If we are can get them from A to B without mess I may be able to help with my little van.

Little fluffies lol not big pink and oinking

ROFLAO and this is at work

i can run you there & back but it would be wednesday at the earliest.

I am waiting to hear back from the emailer for exact location and nombers so I can arrange carry boxes.

Thank you Willman, I will let you know as soon as I do

It will cost about £10-15 in fuel. I can do it sunday if you can stand my curry flavoured and somewhat dirty van.

lol! I'll let you all know as soon as I hear back from the guy who emailed me. I am really hoping this is some kind of prank but even still I just hope I get a response of some kind

Where did the emailer get your details from bm?

I have no idea...

Is this any help:

from another forum

I go to Scarborough every Monday night, but earliest I hit York on way back is 10pm. I can get them to Barnsley, but don't know Doncaster that well? I have 1 cage, but know absolutely nothing about Gps. No probs with an overnight stay, but not much else!

I have had offer of a few transport types, if I need it still after that I will let you know sooz

I have had contact from the emailer, its 2 females 9 months old. unsure of condition but hopeful for collection tomorrow

ooh that's good news you sorted out collecton. :) What is their story baileys_mum

Not too sure on anymore details but basically I think he took the pigs from someone else, he has a breeding program going thus has no space for these piggies. People like him give regular breeders a bad name :rant:

BM - I can help, gimme a bell.

Can all those who gave me offers of collections let me know if you are free either tonight after 8pm or all day monday tuesday or wednesday and if you want anything for the petrol so I can speak the rescue these little piggies are headed to

Are these cavies destined for a rescue in Doncaster?

I think Baileys Mum might be rescuing them herself Grinder.

Really wish I could help BM, really sorry to hear this :( You're right about those type of breeders giving responsible ones a bad name. Good look though, :D

They are destined for a rescue in Gloucestershire they are getting there via a pre arranged piggy train in a few days

I stand corrected! But good on you for helping anyway

Thanks to Lyndsey, the piggies are now safe and here with me for now.
