adoptions still got fee...?

mite as well jus say they r for sale...

mother-of-pearl SG

Fees is to ensure tat some ppl dun take them free n go n sell them. I know of some ppl who takes free things and den go n sell for profits.

I look for responsible ppl to adopt .. not those 3minute fever type of person.

A fee ensures tat the person will feel a pinch before committing to keep the pet , expected lifespan is approximately 8 years or till they die.

mother-of-pearl SG

BTW , if u go SPCA to adopt anything , u also need to pay one.

Nothing is free in this world okie ?

skeujin SG

what the size of the fee u r looking at? are you certain the person who pays you your fee will not resell the rodents?

and no matter how pretty a picture u paint, a fee is a fee. a profit is made so its a sale. unless u donate the profits to a certified charity organisation.

and jus because they can afford your fee doesnt mean they are not on a 3 minute fever. it just means they have money.

BTW SPCA has specific terms & conditions tt come along with the fee such as visitations by a SPCA representative.... Not jus the fee alone.

mother-of-pearl SG

U know how much i spend on them each month? The fee is definately not profits at all.

My point is tat, if they adopt, they pay a fee , pictures can be view. Even if personally wan to come n see also not no issue.

The person interested is a young boy… If he is a genuine pet lover, i can even consider giving it to him with NO Fees charged, coz he is telling me he might have problem with his cash flow. I will interview the person n see if he or she is responsible enuf to care for the pet.

There are some ppl take free things n go sell off. The fee is less den 1/4 of the price of a new guinea pig from the pet shop. To me , its reasonable as it safe guards my interest n the other who is interested.

If the adopter pay the fee n still go n resell, i also cannot prevent it. The option I can give, is tat i can take it back or refund back within 1 week.

Who are u to judge? I put up for adoption, ppl adopt n u wan to make so much noise ?

Uncertain SG

Relax mother-of-pearl, that guy is a fault finder.

Last time, i ask about NTU transfer issue, he also make a lot of noise. Well, stay cool with this kind of busybodies ya.

PS: I am not interested in ur guinea pig

mother-of-pearl SG

If you want people to adopt then you have to give them away for free. Unless you have a guinea pig breeding license you can't breed or sell them. In other words, you cannot accept a fee for giving them away. So, you are committing something illegal most prob.

xXxJaylenxXx SG

Yea. I agree. For adoption, there should not be a fee imposed. Selling of pets without a license is illegal. Will be charged by AVA if found guilty. For breeding, you do not need a license unless, u are prepared to take care of them and do not shirk responsiblities after thinking u cant handle them. Advice is do not breed. Let the animals have a good home and for guinea pigs, do not breed them as it's too risky.

Is a Guinea pig edible?

I'm not too sure about that, but I know a serving of Kung Pao Chicken fills the stomach well.

To TS, you can accept the fee as a form of deposit, and when you conduct a home visit, say, 3 months later, you can return that fee to him if the pet is still around. That way, people won't think that you're trying to sell your pet for profits.

anything that moves is edible...

mother-of-pearl SG

tat can be arranged. I jus wan someone really keen to look after them. I hate to part with them too. Fee can be returned, as a deposit and after 3 months i can give back the sum after a house visit to see that they are taken care properly.

The starting is I took in a abandoned guinea pig, seeing tat he is lonely, i got a companion for him… tat made the population bigger n bigger as they multiplied… have already rehome 2 fella. now still left with 5 … and population can increase every 2-3 month .. theres only 1 male adult, and 1 baby male.. the rest r female…..

LookSeeOnly SG

How old are your guinea pigs? What breeds are they?

Beautiful951 SG

I have an idea. Why don't you give us a fee for baby sitting your pets? When you come back we give you back? (joking joking)

On the other hand, i would love one. But mummy does not like them. You'll see it back on your doorstep after a day.
