Chip and Dale's Story

These boys came into Rescue as 4 week old babies and were adopted by a mom and daughter. Mom told the daughter that the daughter would have to take care of them. I told her that an 11 year old child couldn't take care of them completely. Next thing I know, mom comes in unexpectedly with the boys saying her Daughtry want taking care of them. Two months age being adopted, these poor boys were left looking for another home. These poor boys are wonderful and didn't deserve to be thrown away the way they were. They just want love! Boys or girls?? Males are usually much more cuddly at an earlier age than females. Males get along just as well as females. Like all bonded pairs, they have to be adopted together. If you would like to meet these boys, any of the other adoptable piggies at the rescue, or would like more information please email wheekcare2017@gmail.com. Guinea pigs are social animals and should always have at least one other friend of their own kind. These wonderful little creatures live an average of 6 to 8 years. We’ve even seen them live until they were 9-10 years old! Children under the age of 12 should always be supervised by an adult when holding guinea pigs. Also, a responsible adult should supervise their care and well-being. Email us at wheekcare2017@gmail.com for more information including our adoption form and our Guinea Pig Care Packet with the essential information all guinea pig owners should have.

Wheek Care Guinea Pig Rescue's Adoption Policy

Adopting a trio: Wheek Care has several really great trios available for adoption. We are HUGE believers in trios. To promote the adoption of these sweet trios, we are requesting the same adoption fee, $40, as we request for a pair. Myth: girl guinea pigs are more cuddly than boys. Boy piggies, from around the age of 8 months old, are generally much calmer and cuddly. Adoption through Wheek Care Guinea Pig Rescue is not only rewarding but also very easy! Here is a quick look at our adoption procedure: Email us and request an adoption packet and the specific pair you are interested in, if known. We will send you the application packet. Complete an adoption application and submit it for approval. Upon approved adoption application we will schedule a meet and greet with our adoptable pigs that meet your personality and needs. To ensure that our guinea pigs are going to have the best possible setup when they are adopted we require either a C&C Cage or a Midwest cage be used to house the adopted piggies. These cages ensure ample space for the pigs to stretch and play, reduce chances of dominance fights (because of the size), provides ease of cleaning, and in the case of a C&C Cage - can be customized based on your preference on size, color, decorations, etc. We operate on an "appointment only" basis. We look forward to hearing from you.
