Long story short I'm taking over care of my a guinea pig

get a pen, not a cage

Yeah, didn't necessarily mean cage. Found a nice 30x55ish for about 70, but I'm wondering if I can find one cheaper

make a cage yourself out of interlocking wire cubes. Cheaper and you can make it look however you want

You will want to put together a liner for that of corrugated plastic (coroplast). Home Depot type stores sell it in large sheets.

There is lots of info and instructions available online about this style of piggy enclosure. Search 'cubes and coroplast' guinea pig cage. People get pretty elaborate with these things.

Do you know if it's a female or male guinea pig? An easy way to check is to lift it up and apply a little pressure to its lower abdomen. When you introduce guinea pigs to each other make sure it's on "neutral" territory where neither of them have been there before and a bowl of food. When I first introduced my guinea pigs my older female ignored the younger female and once put together in the same enclosure theyve been getting along very well.

You could inquire about finding a friend for your piggy at a local guinea pig rescue. There's a good number of guinea pig rescues across the united states so hopefully there is one near you. Please update us with news and pictures of your happy piggies! And thank you OP for saving this little guy.
