Guinea Pig Sanctuary.
Guinea Pigs need rehoming for all sorts of reasons,
sometimes they are just no longer wanted and sometimes very caring owners are unable to keep their much loved piggies.
No matter what the reason, owners can be sure that their piggies will receive the very best
care and if they are rehomed, will only go to homes where we know they will be loved and cared for.
Sorry, Due to ill health the Rescue side of Thistle Cavies is now closed.
We are a small self funded non profit making,family run rescue
based in Argyll, Scotland. At present we are caring for 42 piggies. Some of these we will be able to rehome
and some will live out there lives with us either because they are too old to rehome or are in need of special care.
Many of the piggies that arrive at the rescue are in a very
sad state and need a lot of care and attention.
We will never turn away a piggy in need or put a piggy to sleep just because it needs a lot of care.
