Welcome to the Pigloo


A RESCUE FRIENDLY GUINEA PIG COMMUNITY

Since this site was started by rescuers and people who support the guinea pig rescue cause, this forum is rescue-friendly, which by definition means it is anti-breeding and anti-pet store in sentiment. Note there is NO guinea pig breeding forum. There never will be.

However, if you wish to acquire a guinea pig there are several places on the net to look for a humane source of guinea pigs. A few are listed below:

Cavy Rescue: http://cavyrescue.com/
Craigslist: http://craigslist.com
Guinea Pig Adoption Network: http://gpan.net
Petfinder: http://petfinder.com

Hurricane Katrina - Small Animal Relief Efforts

-- Overpopulation is a problem.  Adopt a guinea pig from a rescue or shelter.

-- Guinea Pigs need large cages with proper ventilation.  We recommend cages made out of cubes and coroplast (C&C).
