My story

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

(Mama and niece pair)

Mama TRINITY delivered a single baby who was very independent so when her sister had three babies just a few days later, she helped feed them. Baby FERN developed such a bond with her auntie that when we separated everyone into pairs and they were not the original pair, they both started to become depressed 😔 This is when we knew they were meant to be together. Once reunited, they were back to their happy selves!

These two docile ladies enjoy snuggling and burrowing under their fleece. They will even pull their hay underneath and have a snack together in their secret hideout 🤭

Do you have room in your heart (and home) for this adorable pair of young gals? Visit the link below to apply to adopt ⬇️

If you're hesitant about adopting a guinea pig or you're unsure they are a perfect fit for your family, why not foster a pair instead? Joining our fostering program means you're contributing to the rescue of more guinea pigs that need our care. We are a small foster based rescue and rely on foster homes to help provide care for these piggies. By working together, we can make a difference and save lives!

We are in DESPERATE NEED of foster homes! If you're interested in our fostering program, please apply using the link provided or contact us for more information at somdguineapigrescue@gmail.com.

More about this rescue

We are a small foster based guinea pig rescue in Southern Maryland. Our 501c3 nonprofit rescue's mission is to educate the public on proper guinea pig care and husbandry as pet stores often misinform the public about cage size, nutrition, what is and is not safe, and guinea pigs are often mis sexed or sick at pet stores which leads to guinea pigs being surrendered or worse, abandoned outside. By adopting from rescues like ours, it helps to ensure adopters won't have surprise/unwanted pregnancies, unhealthy piggies, mis sexed guinea pigs while also helping guinea pigs to stay in their furever homes!
