Surrendering

 As is the case with many rescues, we all too often are asked to rescue more guinea pigs than we are able to care for. It is our goal to reduce the number of surrendered guinea pigs in the East Tennessee through education and advocacy. We are almost always at capacity and are only able to take a limited number of owner surrenders.
We ask that a surrender fee of $45.00 be collected to help offset of the cost of care while in rescue. 

 If you are in need of surrendering a guinea pig, please complete the surrender application found below. 

 We can only help with surrenders in Knoxville and surrounding counties. At this time, due to limited funds, we cannot take in pigs with serious medical complications. If your pig is ill, please see an experienced exotic, cavy savvy vet and make the best decision possible for your piggy. 

 

If you are suffering from sinus allergies that cause you to have trouble breathing, it may be a hay allergy instead of a pig allergy in some cases. We have many foster parents that cannot use Timothy hay but instead use orchard hay.
