Taylor Ridge Guinea Pig Rescue and Adoption
We have two females guinea pigs born around the fall of 2005. We are no longer accepting Guinea Pigs in our shelter but will gladly take your calls in the event we may be able to put you in touch with someone wanting a guinea pig. We are retiring from the rescue business and are focusing our care on the needs of our three older guinea pigs, two rabbits, two hamsters, and two parakeets that all came to us from homes where they were no longer wanted.
Who We Are
I have always loved animals. Before I bought my first guinea pig (Raisin) from a friend, I did some research about the breed. Later I purchased a sad looking Chewbacca from a local pet store. He had been returned by the previous owner and was "on sale" because of his poor condition. After lots of TLC and proper care he has grown to be quite a pig! But it was not until I added 7 guinea pigs to my family did I start researching the starting of a rescue.
In early November 2001 I started the ground work and by December 4th I had an additional 19 in my care. Over the past five years we have placed over fifty pets in new homes. I loved all of my guinea pigs and I know they are going to get so much more attention with their new families than I had time to share with them.
Funding
The majority of the funds used to operate my rescue comes from my own pockets.
Pig Time
Adopting a friend
Upon acceptance, there is a $30.00 fee for one pair of guinea pigs. I only adopt in pairs.
