Our Adoption Policies

  • We don’t adopt to anyone looking to have a guinea pig as a “classroom pet”

  • We don’t adopt to anyone looking to give a guinea pig as a gift. The adopter must be the new home of the adopted guinea pig.

  • We don’t adopt out during the month of December. This is to enforce our gift policy and make sure guinea pigs end up in a home that is ready to love and care for them.

  • If in the future, an adopter has a situation where they need to surrender piggies previously adopted from Cavies and Canines, they must return them to our rescue.

  • Before adopting, we perform an inspection to ensure guinea pigs end up in a home that is ready to care for them. If you’d like to learn more about guinea pig care and our requirements for adopters, please read the Care Guide
