Cavy
Companions
CAVY COMPANIONS was established to provide a no-kill refuge for guinea
pigs rescued from shelters, education on their proper care, and adoption
only to loving and committed homes in the Puget Sound area. Of particular
interest is caring for guinea pigs with Special Needs who come from local
shelters.
Cavy Companions will not adopt out any guinea pigs here to be classroom
pets. Cavy Companions is also adamantly against breeding any
companion animal.
Cavy Companions has the discretionary right to refuse an adoption.
After contacting Cavy Companions, adoptions are done by appointment
at Cavy Companions in Bellevue, Washington.
Since the number of guinea pigs at Cavy Companions varies, those taken
in from shelters are given priority, but there MIGHT be room for a private
surrender. Phone 206-427-1238 to ask.
Because it is critical for their well-being, Cavy Companions will
only adopt guinea pigs here in pairs, unless you have a guinea pig already
who needs a companion.
ADOPTION "FEE": $50.00 for each spayed or neutered guinea pig. Since
adoption "fees" do not begin to cover the cost of these surgeries, any extra
donation at time of adoption is very much appreciated.
Cavy Companions is a private, volunteer effort out of my home, so
donations of cash (to be used for food, hay, bedding, and veterinary bills)
are greatly appreciated, but are not tax-deductible.
I try to keep the information on my site current, but companions listed as
available for adoption are subject to change (due to adoptions or pending
adoptions). Phone 206-427-1238 or e-mail info@cavycompanions.org
