HONOLULU (AP) — More than 100 guinea pigs found abandoned in an Ewa Beach apartment are being offered up for adoption.
Officials say the guinea pigs were found at the apartment after the tenant was evicted.
The animal care group Poi Dogs and Popoki is partnering with Oahu Petco stores to set up the adoption of the animals. The 115 animals will be available for $15 each on Saturday.
Honolulu shelter still lacks furnishings, appliances
HONOLULU (AP) — Honolulu’s newest homeless shelter is set to open in the next few weeks, but those in charge of the facility are still scrambling to collect the items needed to make it livable.
The city supplied the funds for container units and personnel to run Sand Island’s Hale Mauliola, but did not pay for furnishing and appliances for the 37 units. The shelter still lacks beds, fans, lockers and several other basic items.
The Institute for Human Services is asking for the public’s help in getting items for the individual units and for the public areas of the shelter.
IHS spokesman Kimo Carvalho says the materials that aren’t donated will need to be purchased.
