My story

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

Meet Daddy and Son!

These two are absolute joy! Dad and son are such great companions and get along wonderfully! As a plus, they could not be cuter!! As Texel Guinea Pigs, their coloring and curly long hair makes them really stand out!

This pair was rescued from the West LA Shelter in June of 2024. Dad and son, along with 17 other guinea pigs were part of an owner surrender. Their previous owner purposely put male and female guinea pigs together and soon was overwhelmed. After her neighbors started complaining, she relinquished all 17 pigs.

Currently this pair is thriving in the care of their foster mom. They love lap time and enjoy their “humans” very much!

All of our piggies are fostered in LA, OC and Ventura Counties. Please message us if you are interested in adopting any of them. We gladly transport adoptable pigs throughout our service area.

Visit https://www.socalguineapigrescue.org/adoption-process - for the application link and additional adoption information.

For two guinea pigs we require a 4x2 C&C cage or a double midwest cage setup. The 4x2 C&C cage measures 56" x 27".
