PLEASE DO NOT ENQUIRE ABOUT ADOPTING FROM US UNLESS YOU ARE PREPARED TO HOUSE YOUR GUINEA PIGS INSIDE, AND THE AREA IN WHICH YOU PLAN ON KEEPING THEM IS AIRCONDITIONED. WE HOUSE THE SHELTER PIGGIES IN AN AIR CONDITIONED SHED AND DURING THE HOT MONTHS THE AIRCON RUNS 24/7. SUMMERS ARE GETTING LONGER AND HOTTER AND IN QUEENSLAND WE CAN EXPECT TO NEED AIRCON FROM SEPTEMBER THROUGH TO THE END OF APRIL. GUINEA PIGS ARE HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO HEAT STROKE AND TO REMOVE THEM FROM A CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENT OF 20 TO 24 DEGREES TO TEMPERATURES OF 28 DEGREES OR MORE IS ASKING FOR TROUBLE AND WE WILL NOT PUT OUR RESCUE PIGGIES IN THIS SITUATION.
As a large scale rescue there is never a shortage of guinea pigs awaiting new homes. We don't have time to list all our piggies and those you see here are just a small selection of who we have available.
PLEASE NOTE: WHEN LOOKING TO ADOPT A FRIEND FOR YOUR OWN GUINEA PIG/S WE REQUIRE YOU TO BRING YOUR GUINEA PIG/S TO THE SHELTER FOR THE PURPOSE OF INTRODUCTIONS SO WE CAN ENSURE ALL ARE GOING TO BE COMPATIBLE.
