My story

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

Gizmo and Rue are two-year-old female piggies. They were shy upon arrival in February 2024, but have settled into their foster home and are little characters. They now eagerly talk at the slightest bag crinkle in hopes of receiving veggies or a treat. They will greet their foster mom and accept treats and greens that are hand fed. They don’t like hands reaching in will try to get away, but when picked up, they calm down quickly when held securely and petted. They will accept small pets on the nose when taking a treat. Rue has a smooth coat and Gizmo is fuzzy with longer hair that is reminiscent of a fuzzy caterpillar. Rue is the more vocal of the two. Her favorite game is to avoid being picked up, then whooping like a car alarm until she decides you are okay and worthy of holding her.

They would do best in an enclosure of at least eight square feet to explore. Potential adopters please make sure there are no hay allergies in the home before adopting. A meet and greet can be scheduled if you are not sure or have never handled guinea pigs.

foster homes. We do NOT have a facility & all animals

Cats' adoption fee include vetting, spaying/neutering, and any health care. All are heartworm negative. We require all possible adopters to fill out an adoption application, and to submit themselves to home visits by staff or volunteers, or by local rescues.

More about this rescue

I got involved with rescue work out of love for animals. I had decided to set up my own rescue. I serve mostly deaf animals because they are first to be put down and are usually deemed untrainable, unadoptable and unlovable. I didn't feel this was right or fair.
