Guinea Pig Adoption
GUINEA PIGS, LIKE ALL ANIMALS, HAVE THEIR OWN PERSONALITY


FINDING A PIGGY SOULMATE .... 

Whether your looking for a couch potato, an active piggy with zoomies and popcorn to spare, a talker that'll welcome you home with wheeks, or a companion for a current piggy family member, we want to find a good fit for your family.  

To accomplish this, we require an adoption application and interview to insure our animals go to homes committed to providing a safe, loving, and permanent environment for them, as Guinea Pigs need to be provided with daily fresh water, hay, guinea pig pellets, vitamin C, and fresh fruits and vegetables.

We can provide a meet and greet with your family and any existing piggy family members. 

We always have more adoptable piggies than those listed below, if you would like more information on other adoptable piggies, please send us a detailed message and we'll get back with you as soon as possible, an application will still be required. 


To complete an application and submit it online, click the 'Adoption Application' button below, a printable version is available on FAQ page.

- Lily and Sunflower - 

 

These sweet girls are about 1.5 yrs old and still learning good pick-up manners, but with the help of their foster mom, they’re discovering the joys of lap time.

They can be a little skittish—loud noises and quick movements send them hiding—but that just means they’ll blossom beautifully with a patient, gentle family. 

When it comes to food, they’re not picky at all—veggies,
