I run the rescue from my home, where the guinea pigs waiting to be adopted are treated like part of the family. They get plenty of love and care, which helps them adjust to living in a home environment. It also gives me the chance to really get to know each guinea pig. Because of this, I only have a few guinea pigs waiting for homes at any time.

Please view our Facebook Adoption Page and social media which has more up to date information about the guineas waiting for homes including current photos and videos.

Ozzy (sanctuary resident currently)

The new boar on the block… meet Ozzy 

Unfortunately Ozzy has some health issues including a dental problem which is being assessed and treated. Therefore at this time he is not suitable for adoption and is looking for sponsorship.

Ozzy is a stunning red-haired boar, estimated to be around 3 years old. He has been on his own for a long time (possibly his whole life), so he is looking for companionship.

Ozzy is a sweet-natured, friendly and calm boar. nd his personality as he has only just arrived, but so far he appears healthy and is settling in well. He arrived with very long nails which have now been trimmed.

Ozzy has been castrated, meaning he could potentially be matched with a sow or two, or he may be suitable for bonding with another boar.

Merida and Annie

Merida and Annie came into rescue after a kind-hearted member of the public stepped in when she heard they were due to be abandoned. Thanks to her quick action, they are now safe, settled, and being well cared for.

The girls are young, around 6 months old, and are quite nervous of handling, so they will need a patient, confident owner who can give them the time and reassurance they need to build trust and confidence. They must be rehomed together, and would be better remaining as a pair as Annie has quite a dominant personality and has previously struggled with dynamics in a larger group.

The girls are currently receiving regular hands-on care in rescue to help them build confidence and prepare for their future home.

They are looking for an indoor home with a large C&C cage (or similar), access to an outdoor run on warm days, and a diet of unlimited fresh hay with a good variety of vegetables twice daily.

Blackberry (reserved)

Our lovely Blackberry has been in rescue for a couple of months after sadly losing his companion. His family did the right thing getting in touch as they wanted him to have friends again 💛

He’s around 2.5 years old and a lovely big boy. When he arrived he was quite overweight weighing over 1.7 kg but with exercise and a better diet he is now just over 1.5 kg. Blackberry is a placid, cuddly lad who enjoys his food and loves coming out to play. He has been neutered while in rescue so he is now ready to join females.

Blackberry does suffer experience some impaction so will need an owner happy to help him out every couple of days. We can show you how to do this.

Do you have a sow or group of sows who could welcome this gentle boy?

He’s looking for an indoor home with a C&C cage or equivalent, plenty of hay, and fresh veggies twice a day. He would also love access to a safe run to graze when the weather is nice 🌱

He hasn't had very good care and is understandably nervous. However, he is curious and will shine given time. He will need a calm and confident owner who is experienced with guinea pigs.
