Rabbit & Pocket Pet Adoptions
Our Story
We are not currently rescuing as we are relocating. The only pets we are able to take in are those previously adopted from us. We will always take back a pet who was adopted from this rescue.
We rescue unwanted domestic rabbits, rats, hamsters, chinchillas and guinea pigs in Southern California. Once here, the rabbits are spayed or neutered, litter trained, socialized and placed into permanent indoor homes with people also in Southern California who understand rabbits.
After we quickly realized that we could not save all or even a good portion of the unwanted pets we were personally asked to help, we decided that our main goal was going to be to help the pets and their owners live quality lives together through education and guidance so that there would be less unwanted pets. Rabbits and small pets are often unwanted because their owners become overwhelmed and don't know how to solve behavior problems.
Some of the ways we help small pets is by educating people on proper care via phone and e-mail, assisting people with finding experienced veterinarians, helping trouble shoot behavior problems, and by giving basic training advice so that small pets and people can live together happily.

Can you SHIP?
Sorry, NO. Please do not contact the owner and ask about shipping guinea pigs. It is NOT possible. Please look for guinea pigs LOCAL to you! That's what this site is for--helping you find a guinea pig close to home to adopt and love.
But I want THAT one!
Yes, that one is adorable and looks just like the one you must have for your very important reason or you will not be able to go on living. But, there are many more in your area that are just as wonderful. Perhaps they are not listed here, but they can be found. The piggy in need waiting for you near your own back yard might look a little different, but could melt your heart anyway!
