My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Our adoption process can be found on our website here: www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/process

Estimated birth date: 3/1/19

Personality: Curious, Dignified, Energetic, Enjoys being held, Friendly toward humans, Inquisitive, Nervous, Smart.

Favorite treats: Loves his Vit C cookies.

Current Diet: Oxbow Essentials Adult Guinea Pig Food, Veggies, Leafy Greens, Western Timothy & Orchard Mix

Favorite toys and activities: He loves chattering at the neighboring Guinea pigs in the next cage over

Potty trained: No.

This animal’s daily routine: Fresh greens and veggies with pellets in the morning, afternoon exercise if possible, hay throughout the day.

BFF (Does this animal have or need a friend of the same species in their home?): Yes, Gimli & Bombur are a bonded pair and must be adopted together.

Other species this pet has been exposed to and reaction: Neighbor dog barked at him; he froze but ignored it.

Has this animal been exposed to children? What was their reaction? Daily exposure to multiple children; doesn’t mind being held

Health concerns: None

Behavioral concerns: None

Other notes: He calms down the most when with Gimli and does best when they are together

Gimli & Bombur came to MNPPR when their previous owner & adopter were unable to provide proper care.

Due to our rescue being foster-based, not all foster homes are located in Saint Paul, MN. This animal's foster parent prefers to meet at the Roseville PetSmart - 2480 Fairview Ave N, Roseville, MN 55113 for meet & greets, & adoptions.

Gimli & Bombur have a combined adoption fee of $60

We absolutely DO NOT SHIP ANIMALS! Please do not ask.


A portion of Bombur's care while in rescue has been sponsored by an anonymous donor! If you would like to donate to provide veterinary care, food, bedding, and enrichment for Bombur or other pocket pets in the care of MNPPR, please visit https://www.mnpocketpetrescue.org/sponsor-a-pocket-pet for more information.

More about this rescue

MN Pocket Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) organization primarily serving the Twin Cities Metro Area, focusing on education and public outreach. Our intent is to keep all animals in their homes, with their families, whenever possible. We are committed to rescuing those pocket pets that are in jeopardy of being euthanized or are in danger of being abused, left unattended or in other types of vulnerable situations. We ensure all animals receive proper veterinary care, medication and special training for any behavioral issues, as well as to arrange safe, temporary homes for these animals until stable forever homes can be found. Our team is made up of enthusiastic volunteers who work passionately to serve the underrepresented and often misunderstood niche of pocket pets in the overall rescue community and general public.
