Dilton and Albert's Story

Dilton and Albert were part of a hoarding situation in Cambria County. We took in 26 piggies, most of them young males. We don't know if these boys are related in any way and it took us a long time to get the boys comfortable with each other. Now, they get along and live peacefully together. <br/><br/>When they got here, they were all feral. They couldn't trust anyone and it took us some time to get them to where we could feed and hold them. <br/><br/>Now, they are ready for the last part of their journey... a living home with a patient family to show them how to trust and love. They need to know that they are worth the effort.

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.
