Percy and Burger - NOW RE-HOMED

Hi there, please meet Percy and Burger.......
Percy is the ginger and white piggie on the right and Burger is the white and brown on the left.
Percy and Burger get on really well together. Percy looks after Burger and always looks out for him and protects him. Percy even takes food from you and gives it to Burger.
Percy......
Percy is nearly 2 years old and is an amazing character. He is full of life and is such a joy to be around.
He gets really excited when you come into the room and always comes to see you and say hello.
He popcorns when he is happy and wants to be involved in everything you are doing.
Burger......
Burger is approx just under a year old and is a little shy. 
Percy looks after him and is never far from his side.
Burger is slowly starting to take food from my hand and squeaks when I come into the room.
If you think you can give these lovely boys a new, safe loving home then please get in touch for a chat.

Belle and Willow - NOW RE-HOMED

Hi there please meet Belle and Willow......
Belle is the brown Guinea pig on the left and Willow is the long haired, tricoloured coronet piggie on the right.
 These girls get along really well and are very happy together.
Belle....... 
Belle is approx just under 2 years old (we think)  and is very sweet natured. 
She had a very bad start to her life but was nursed back to health by her previous owners.
She is very good at having her nails clipped and loves being brushed with a soft bristled brush and can use the litter tray too! 
 Belle likes cuddles and will tell you when she has had enough.
Willow.........
Willow is a long haired, tricoloured coronet piggie and is also approx 1 1/2 years old.
 She is a long haired Guinea pig so would need regular grooming. Willow is also good at having her nails clipped.
Willow is a little shy but very loving and sweet and once she gets to know you she likes giving kisses and likes to be cradled.
The girls both like their food and love romain lettuce, water melon and kale, Willow particularly likes baby sweet corn and tomatoes. 
They are on burgess excel nuggets.
If you think you can give these adorable girls a new, loving home then please get in touch for a chat.

Pickle, Clover and Ginger - NOW RE-HOMED

Hi there please meet Pickle, Clover and Ginger.........
These lovely, friendly little girls are looking for a new forever home as their previous owners unfortunately can no longer keep them.
Pickle........
Pickle is black and white and approx just over a year old and is super confident and not shy at all.
She loves her food and treats and is always the first in the food bowl. Pickle is full of fun and personality, she even likes to climb on top of her hideaway house! 
Pickle loves to chat away to you when you walk near her hutch and loves cuddles and strokes. 
Ginger.......
Ginger is ginger and white and is approx just over a year old.
Ginger is very gentle little pig and a little shy but does like a snuggle with you. She is definitely the baby out of the three.
 Ginger likes following her friends around the garden and likes to graze on the grass.
Clover........
Clover is grey and white and also approx just over a year old.
Clover is a calm, independent piggie who loves cuddles and grazing on the grass. Clover also loves celery, cucumber.
She has slightly longer hair than the others so may need a trim every now and then. 
They have regular 'preventative' mite treatment once a month. They do not have Woodshavings in their hutch as this irritates their eyes. 
If you think you can give these lovely little girls a new home then please get in touch for a chat.

Hutch - SOLD

Hi there, we have many different hutches for sale here at our rescue....
We have had a lot of very kind hearted people donate their hutches/cages and runs to us so we can either keep them for our resident piggies or sell to help raise money for our rescue. Money from the sales of the cages/hutches and runs goes towards food, bedding and vet bills. They are second hand so are not in perfect condition.
This hutch we have for sale is a two tier hutch and measure approx 45 3/4" Tall x 45" long x x just over 22" Deep. It has been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. 
It is suitable for two Guinea pigs.
It has been nibbled and chewed but is still secure for your little pets.
If you are interested in this hutch please get in touch.
