Maple & Sprout's Story

Meet Maple and her niece Sprout!<br/><br/><br/>Little miss Maple was rescued with a large group of piggies who had been living outside in an Orange County mobile home park.<br/>The group of piggies were all mixed together, boys and girls. So Maple and the other girls were already pregnant when we took them in.<br/><br/>About a month and a half after their rescue, Maple gave birth to one single baby. That baby turned out to be a boy, and could not stay with mama as we do not want the breeding cycle to continue. Luckily one of the other mamas from that group had babies at the same time and so we were able to get Maple a little girl, her niece! Sprout was born March 27 2025, and er estimate Maple to be around 7 months old as of mid May 2025.<br/><br/>Both mama and baby love to zoom zoom zoom in their cage! They love treats and love exploring during floor time!<br/><br/>They would do great in a patient and loving home who will enjoy watching these girls continue to grow and learn how kind humans can be.<br/><br/><br/>Friendly, gentle and full of personality, these two will make a great addition to any home! <br/><br/>To be considered for adoption you must be able to provide a minimum size 2 x 4 grid c&c cage (28" x 56"). Please see our Supply List for links to approved habitats: https://www.socalguineapigrescue.org/supplies-list<br/><br/>If you would like to try out guinea pig ownership, but aren't yet ready to adopt, we offer fostering options which include all needed supplies. We do ask that you provide fresh veggies daily.<br/><br/>Please reach out to us to learn more!

Southern California Guinea Pig Rescue's Adoption Policy
Adopters must fill out an application (available online) and submit a photo or receipt of their cage so we can verify our minimum space requirements are met. After approval, arrangements are made for the adopter to meet the guinea pigs with an experienced volunteer to facilitate the introductions and answer any questions. If trying to pair a single guinea pig with a current pig, the application process is the same but the meeting process is a bit lengthier. The adopter can meet with several single guinea pigs to see which one may be a harmonious match. Initial introductions can last a couple hours and the adopter will go home and reintroduce the guinea pigs and monitor for signs of aggression. If the bond fails, the adopter must separate the guinea pigs and we will make arrangements to take the guinea pig back. Then we repeat until we find a good match.
