Zora & Octavia (Tavi)'s Story

Meet Zora & Tavi! Zora (mostly white) has been with the rescue since she was a little baby and is now a little over a year old. She has truly thrived in her foster home and has grown up to be such a sweet little lady. She was originally paired with one of our other rescue piggies who sadly developed a terminal illness and passed away late last year. We didn't want Zora to be alone for long and so we were able to pair her with little Octavia who's mom was one of the pregnant girls rescued from the South LA Hoarding case in July 2025. Both girls are available now for adoption to a safe, loving and preferably adult only home. The girls are currently used to living in a 2x5 grid C&C cage and we ask that adopters be willing to provide the same size. They are also loving their piggy safe hammocks as well as lots of enrichment and safe spots to snuggle in. For more on care and cages please see our website. https://www.socalguineapigrescue.org/guinea-pig-care Cage info https://www.socalguineapigrescue.org/cage-guide

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.
