MR. PIG PIG: Critter of the Week at the Humane Society of HarCo

Mr. Pig Pig here reporting for WPIG-TV, and I'm here on the scene at the animal shelter. Things are bright and cheery in the small critter room where I'm sitting, but not an empty cage can be seen across the room.

A spokesperson here tells me that guinea pigs make wonderful friends and companions and don't take up any room at all. "There are so many great reasons to be a hero and adopt," a counselor tells me. "Guinea pigs will learn the sound of your voice and make cute little squeals when you enter the room!"

And I'm getting word from the staff at the front desk that adoption fees are waived thru September 19th. Get your appointment to adopt a piggie - call 410-836-1090 or adopt@harfordshelter.org - to set up a time. This has been Mr. Pig Pig for WPIG network news.

Adoption Fee: Clear the Shelters is now extended thru September 19th at 4pm. Adoption fees are waived, but appointments must be made!
