OP, do not accept money orders. I used to work for a bank, and counterfeit MOs were common (though I never heard of one used for a guinea pig transaction). Take cash only. Guinea pigs aren't so expensive that the person can't give you cash for them! If they absolutely insist on giving you a money order, then YOU insist on them meeting you before you give them the animal, then take them down to the bank that the MO is drawn on, and cash it right there.
This is very important since if you accept a MO and deposit it into your account and it proves fraudulent, YOU are held liable by the bank and the law when the MO is returned as fake...which means you lose the money.
