My story

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

Lyra was originally surrendered to a dog/cat rescue. They asked if she could transfer to our rescue to help her find a home. She has since been spayed and received her RHDV2 vaccines. She has been a hit at every event she has attended due to her love of two things - food & people! She would make a great addition to any home! She is very social and has been around people of all ages, other rabbits & small animals along with dogs.

Go meet their pets

Our rescue is foster-based. All adoptions and meet ‘n greets are by appointment only. Most of our appointments are in the South Hills of Pittsburgh. In order to help our animals find homes, we have flexible appointment options! Events are shared on social media (Facebook/Instagram) and/or our website.

More about this rescue

We are a foster-based small animal rescue. We care for and offer rescue & sanctuary services for small animals including, but not limited to, pet mice, hamsters, gerbils, rats, guinea pigs, chinchillas and rabbits. While our rescue is volunteer-run, our executive director does rescue full-time allowing us to also assist other local rescues with medical, pregnancy/maternity care & special needs cases especially involving chinchillas and rabbits. While we have been active in small animal rescue since 2020, we were established as Underground Squeaks in 2023. We are currently pending 501c3 approval.
